Sam's Club is making a big change to its Sunday hours, starting this weekend. The membership-based warehouse club is expanding its hours after receiving overwhelming feedback from its members. The new schedule will simplify things, moving most Sam's Club warehouses to 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. every day, with a few exceptions. Plus members will still get exclusive early access from 8 a.m. to 9 a.m. daily. But here's where it gets interesting: Sam's Club is also staying open a couple of hours later for certain holidays. Now, Sam's Club warehouses will remain open until 8 p.m. on Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, and New Year's Eve. That's a big change from the previous 6 p.m. closing time on those days. The company also confirmed that clubs will close at 6 p.m. on Christmas Eve and remain closed on New Year's Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas Day, and Easter. So, what does this mean for you? Well, it's worth noting that the new Sunday hours will be as follows: Curbside Pickup: 7 a.m. - 8 p.m., Plus Member Shopping: 8 a.m. - 9 a.m., Club Shopping: 9 a.m. - 8 p.m., Café: 10 a.m. - 8 p.m., and Fuel: 6 a.m. - 10 p.m. During Walmart's investor day, Sam's Club CEO Chris Nicholas revealed an ambitious goal: to open 15 new stores every year for the foreseeable future. This announcement comes on the heels of similar moves by competitors BJ's Wholesale Club and Costco, who have also announced plans to expand. Nicholas added that all existing Sam's Club locations, totaling about 600 stores, will be undergoing remodeling. This is a significant development for the company and its customers, and it will be interesting to see how these changes impact the warehouse club market.
