Price: $19.98

If you love Wendy's chili but want to save yourself a trip to the drive-through, pick up this 6-pack of cans for just $19.98. The price works out to $3.33 per can, which is $1.09 less than you would pay for one can at Walmart.

And Sam's Club shoppers say it's just as good as when you get it fresh at Wendy's. "Once we tried it, we had to have more," one reviewer said. 

Idahoan Shredded Hash Brown Potatoes

Price: $9.48

Make weekend breakfasts easier with these pre-shredded hash browns. The two-pound carton will get you 59 servings, which equals 16 cents per plate.

To cook, all you have to do is set the potatoes in boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes and then heat them on the stove until golden. "We keep these hash browns on hand as they are a convenient alternative versus keeping fresh or frozen potatoes," said reviewer Family Trio.

Member's Mark Pineapple Spears

When pineapple is out of season (or even if it's not), this 42-ounce jar of pineapple spears is a refreshing treat. The pineapple is stored in coconut water with added syrup for extra sweetness. And you'll get nine servings per jar, working out to 78 cents per serving.

While it may seem somewhat random, these jarred pineapple spears are a can't-miss buy for many Sam's shoppers. "I liked it so much that I went back and bought [six] more jars," said Sam's Club shopper Not Happy.

Member's Mark Disposable Food Gloves

For under $12, you get four boxes of gloves at Sam's Club, each box containing 250 pairs of gloves. Plus, they're food-safe and made with latex-free plastic.

Big Joe Noodle Sling Pool Float

These queso cheese-flavored Ruffles are a unique spin on a classic potato chip. The $4.48 bag has 15 ounces of chips totaling 15 servings — that's just 30 cents per serving, which helps you save money on groceries. Reviewers describe the cheesy chips as "rich," "delicious," and a "great snack choice."

If you want to try them out, be sure to grab them at Sam's Club because you'll pay the same price for an eight-ounce size at Walmart.

Member's Mark Modern Dish Rack

The minimalist dish rack has an impressively large capacity with slots for plates, holders for cups and bottles, and a removable utensil caddy. Plus, the attached drainage spout will ensure all the water from your drying dishes makes it back into the sink and not on your counter.

Brach's Soft Peppermint Candy

"So simple but so good," said reviewer Christina. "I work in an office, and everyone loves coming in and getting mints."
