Buy the $45 and dont touch the $50 which has activation issue. I currently have a $50 that is inactive, no money in it and cannot be used. Ticket to investigate this opened since Thursday with no resolution in sight. On SD site there are quite a few people suffer from this issue.

Wrong assumption due to Sam's site has deceiving description of the card.

Go back a couple pages and read the posts about the $45 have been used at either Sam's or WalMart, B&M or online.

At the back of the card, it CLEARLY states the card can be used for Purchase of Merchandise at Sam's Club. Samsclub.com, ALL form of Retail at WalMart, Inc. (meaning can be used at neighborhood store also), in US and Peurto Rico and WalMart.com.

Matter of fact you can go to WalMart website and look for the description of this card, it has the wordings as at the back of the physical card.

Sam's site just gives a very misleading description - deceiving advertisement if you will - just as they claim your guest membership is only good for 24 hours... BS, it continues to work long pass that.
