My Costco membership will be up soon, and after moving last year, I have a couple of Sams Clubs much closer to my new house than any Costcos. What are the main differences between the two? I like Costco's backup policy on their products, although I've never had to use it. Are they equally good value, everything being said?
I'd choose Costco over Sams any day. But like you, I do Sams because it's 10 mins away as opposed to 40 mins for Costco.
Costco for me, I have both about the same distance though. I choose Costco because the value, otherwise I always find my Costco shopping experience a lot less stressful. Don't know why, but when I used to go to Sams it felt like Walmart and I really don't enjoy that store (funny I actually went tonight).
Stop into Sam's ask for a free one day pass at the service desk and see if you like it.
I'll try it for a day, but I also do not like the Walmart experience, so probably won't like Sams. Not that I particularly like shopping full stop!

Maybe so, but the new Sam's card doesn't look to bad with the 5% 3% 1% rewards. Some prices are good some not so much. Just like anywhere else including Costco know your prices. For me Costco is 100 miles away defeats the savings.
I have both memberships. Each serves a purpose for me, so I'll keep them. As far as shopping, Costco ALWAYS has long lines and at least the Sams Clubs I frequent have self checkouts.

Lexie your Costco does not have self check out lines? I was under the impression they all did these days, at least mine does and a few others i've visited.
The Costco we have here on east coast don't have self check out lines either
I choose Costco:
