Sam's Club Extends Hours, Starbucks Not Invited Yet
Sam's Club, the Walmart sibling less famous than Costco but arguably more obsessed with time management, is officially extending its hours to a thrilling 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily starting this weekend in Miami and beyond. Thanks to an 'overwhelming feedback' tsunami—because who wouldn't want to shop grocery aisles during their apocalypse prep on Christmas Eve's early closure day?—the new Sunday hours stretch from a mere 10 a.m.–6 p.m. to a full 12 hours of shopping bliss, with 7 a.m. curbside pickups fueling e-commerce growth. Plus members get a VIP feel from 8 to 9 a.m., a delicate nod to Costco's 9 a.m. exec exclusivity while Sam's slashes membership fees down to $50 and $110 tiers versus Costco's pricier $65 and $130 duopoly. Fuel stations oddly run just 6 p.m. to 10 p.m., maybe for night owls or ghost shoppers. This aggressive hours revamp helped Sam's Club wipe the floor with Costco's customer satisfaction earlier this year, proving it's not just about deals but also about when you can grab them.

Sam's Club just stretched Sunday hours like a yoga class nobody asked for, because apparently staying open longer solves everything, including your mother-in-law's last-minute holiday requests and your existential dread about grocery shopping.
Finally, more time to awkwardly bump carts and wonder if the new hours apply to the endless checkout lines or just the shelves you never need.
Sam's Club extends hours but not prices—still cheaper than Costco, proving only time, not money, is truly infinite here.
