Tip

Returns are tied to your membership number, so the club can look up the purchase without a paper receipt.

Holiday returns 2026

The 100% Satisfaction Guarantee has no set window for most items, so Sam's Club has not needed a holiday extension in past years. Electronics and phones keep fixed windows. Sam's Club holiday return policy →

How Known counts itWhen you photograph a Sam's Club receipt, Known sets a return deadline on each line: No deadline on most items; 90 days on electronics and major appliances. The dashboard shows the dollars still returnable and the date each window closes.
