BENTONVILLE, Ark. – Collegiate students have a new place to go Sunday, March 8, while they gear up for basketball action happening later in the month.

“We are excited about the upcoming month of basketball and want to invite our collegiate members to stop by and gear up for the games,” said La’Ron Louis, Sam’s Club Membership Manager. “This is a chance for them to take advantage of great deals, including a $10 gift card for referring their friends.
