Sam's MC Question

I see that Sams issues the cash back paid once a year to Sams's as the payee. Can a person just cash the check and be on their way or is it used as payment toward purchase in which you have to spend it all.

Yes I went to the customer service desk when I walked in and cashed the check. I then went shopping and charged my purchase to my credit card. The check is treated as a regular check not a credit to your account.

Re: Sam's MC Question

you can even have it applied to your card while checking out if need be as well.  sometimes this is easier than dealing with the line at the CS desk.
