My boyfriend and I were in there the other day to return a microwave that didn't fit in our kitchen. Upon arrival we could just tell that Patty the team lead was not in the mood to be helping customers. She seemed irritated the whole time and even looked like she rolled her eyes when she saw us. She seemed rude to the people ahead of us too. Don't know if she was having a bad day or what but either way you don't take it out on the customers that are helping to pay your finances and keep this place in buisness. If you don't like your job get a new one or get a new attitude. Overall not happy with our experience.

This store has improved much in the last year(s). Customer service still very slow sometimes. Forgot my card once and took 20+min to get a temp card. 25+ year Sam's club member. Used to have business account, which Sam's no longer offers. Big negative. Still have CostCo business account. Like tire dept. Have bought tires at Sam's for many vehicles, for many years. Tire dept is my primary reason for keeping a membership.

Sam"s is closer to my house than Costco. Sam's is easier to shop at than Costco. Gas is good too!

My daughter and I came in on Thursday for our weekly Sam's club stop. They were out of what we came for but the manager Philip went above and beyond to make my kiddos day. The lady at the service counter was awesome too, I unfortunately don't remember her name though.

The gas station attendants are treated poorly. Broken air conditioning gives them no relief on hot humid days. Just to momentarily step out of the toxic fumes and intense Minnesota heat in the summer would be great. Most of the attendants are elderly people. And, to use a bathroom they must walk about a 5th of mile roundtrip. While they are gone, there is no one to help customers-in-need. Imagine that 1/5th mile roundtrip walk in upcoming Minnesota's brutal winter weather. Sam's, you can do much better.

I have zero issues with this location or Sam's in general. As a matter a fact, at numerous locations I have run into very helpful employees and managers. This location is closest to me so they get the bulk of my business. It's a whse club folks - no frills (especially during covid - ahh I long for the days when you'd see entire families having their lunch, feasting on free samples). Anyway, use their app for scan and go as that has been the best (and it does keep your receipts handy)! They cycle through items pretty regularly so you will get seasonal options. Fuel and liquor on-site too which is a plus. I tend to avoid Walmart when possible but will walk happily into a Sam's - this one in particular and usually taking advantage of the early member hours!!!

Awful experience with a return. I gifted this teeth whitening kit to one of my daughter and item did not work as advertised and gadget fell apart at wiring near harness. I went to Sam's Club in Shakopee Minnesota where I was unable to pull my purchase history on the app and they were not able to find this purchase anywhere!!!! I was very surprised! Manager proceeded to tell me that my history would pull up if I would log onto there Wi-Fi which still didn't pull my purchase history. This item is very viewable in their website at $ 59.99 plus Tax. They gave me a gift card for $50 which made me irate. I proceeded to give them back the card and took my box which he had to pull out of the garbage! I am a palled that he didn't even try to correct it. I will not be renewing my membership this May.

This is a difficult review for me because I love this store, this location, their staff (mostly). My problem is that the guy at their door yesterday who was checking memberships, was not wearing his mask properly. His nose was exposed, and with COVID-19, coronavirus, all experts say cover nose and mouth. The nose sheds A LOT of germs and virus when asymptomatic with COVID-19. MN law says cover nose & mouth with a mask when entering store. I mentioned to him his mask had slipped and he needed to cover his nose. He didn't cover his nose and mockingly said "thanks for the tip" and did not correct it. MN COVID-19 Cases 109K (+1,390 NEW YESTERDAY) MN COVID-19 Deaths 2,174 (+14 NEW YESTERDAY) As of yesterday in the U.S. COVID-19 U.S. Cases7,898,609 COVID-19 U.S. Deaths 218,718 NO EMPLOYEE SHOULD TREAT THIS LIKE A JOKE. NO MANAGER SHOULD ALLOW THAT BEHAVIOR. Sam's Club in Shakopee, MN will endanger the lives of others if employees are allowed to not mask properly during the COVID-19 pandemic.
I have visited this store for many years with my mother. However, this last time I attended, I was very dissatisfied with the service here. My mother is immunocompromised, so she had me pick up her groceries to keep her safe from Coronavirus, using her Sam's and credit card. At the checkout, I had trouble with her card but the card terminal said approved, although I didn't receive a receipt. I got to the door and explained the situation to the woman working the exit, and she called an accounting lady named Nancy. Nancy chastised me for using my immunocompromised mother's card. I explained the situation and offered to recheckout my items and pay with a different card, but Nancy demanded she had to check out my items, seeming like she suspected me of stealing. Who steals water, bread, and lettuce?! If I was stealing, why would I offer to rescan everything? Nancy was so rude to me, and I know that if I was older, she would've been much more respectful. Shame on you Nancy, you don't know anything about my life or my situation. Shame on you for being rude to a young woman trying to help her endangered mother.

This Sam's club has decent people in it. The quality of service is sometimes lacking with little to no people in aisles to help members. The food that is served is okay, sometimes the churros are a little burnt. The ice cream is addictive and decent. The problem is a lack of open cashier lanes at times. Self checkouts have had issues such as not recognizing my card or not printing receipts.

I hate this store. This store has ill mannered and racist employees I was called the N word by one of the cashiers!! The store looked I was shopping in a factory. I feel so bad for those poor young cart guys I saw the manager yelling at them for "not being fast enough" and I happened to think they did a pretty good job. I got food poisoning from their hot dogs. Also their door greeter named Karen is usually rude to me as well and she yelled me saying that "we are closing in 30 minutes" and kicked me out the door. I really wish I wasnt forced to shop here but this is the cloest one to my house. If you dont live anywhere near this location do yourself a favor and don't start shopping here.

They have a new system before you can leave. The person needs to scan each of your items before you can leave. Then, go into the liquor store and it takes 40 minutes to check out. Do not go here!!!

The restrooms are worst then a porta potty , crap every where in the men's room , some stalls don't even have working locks !! I only came here thinking it's way out here , it "must" be well off compare to those near the ghetto hood , I was wrong . The shelves are a mess , a lot of empty space . After this first impression , I will never come back here even if this was the last Sam's club in the state ! My only regret was that I didn't take any pictures , but I just wanted to get the HELL out of there !
