Rare trafaelwyr Posted August 19, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Yeah....probably not a topic you were expecting to see in the Cozumel thread and I'm not referring to some swanky beach resort. Last time I was in Cozumel (2018) and was returning back from an excursion, we drove past a Sam's Club. I was quite surprised to see one there because I thought Sam's was only in the U.S.. Has anyone ever ventured there? I read on Trip Advisor that if you have a membership here in the U.S., it will work there. I thought it would be an interesting side trip to check it out just for the heck of doing it. Naturally, that's not set in stone, just something I'd been mulling over.

c-leg5 Posted August 19, 2022 #2 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Its back on Avenida 80/90 and transversal. Never had the need to go as we have never needed that much stuff and have found Mega or Chedraui adequate for groceries. But if you have a driver for a few hours and want to add on a visit you probably could. Some good local restaurants out on transversal and chocolate factory on the way to east coast bars and restaurants. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisin 07 Posted August 20, 2022 #3 Share Posted August 20, 2022 US membership card is accepted in Cozumel Sams. We go every year but we stay for 2 to 3 weeks at a time. Usually good prices on liquor and their pharmacy. If you go there also check out the grocery store next door. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue_water Posted August 20, 2022 #4 Share Posted August 20, 2022 We winter in Playa and use the SC there. Your membership is valid internationally, including Mexico. However we’ve had instances where the cashier cannot verify our membership (sard will not scan properly). In those cases the cashier will use a generic card, or else you can just go to the customer service desk and they will give you a 24-hr pass.

bguppies Posted August 21, 2022 #5 Share Posted August 21, 2022 Never knew there was a Sam's Club. but something I would never think of doing on a vacation day in Cozumel. (maybe in a cappier port like Belize or Costa Maya)😜 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue_water Posted August 22, 2022 #6 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Nothing wrong with being curious about the US stores here, especially with free time following an excursion…We were too when we first visited - Home Depot! 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashland Posted September 7, 2022 #8 Share Posted September 7, 2022 We usually go to Costco if there's one close by. The one in China ... interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
