Unlike the poor gasoline which doesn't get me to buy more of anything ( why can't Sam's step up to top tier). I am mpressed with the GC cards. When they have them. 50.00 for 39.00.

We have been using Golden Corral gift cards from Sam's Club for a few years. Definitely a bargain and never had an issue. You can't purchase these (or any gift card) using Sam's Club "Scan and Go." They have to be activated during checkout. Always ask about activation, especially if you're going to give as a gift. Once you leave the checkout nothing can be done by Sam's Club or Golden Corral. That's the same for any gift card. I've gifted and received as a gift and never a problem.

If you have bad luck to get the GCs which were never been activated by retailer or whoever should be responsible. You Cannot use it in restaurant; You Cannot return it to Sam's (neither online nor in-store). No one has the "Right" to refund you, and no one has the idea of how to solve this issue for you. The Only thing you will get is "I am Sorry but nothing we can do".

Shortly after these arrived, the Golden Corral closed. The only one remaining was nearly 40 miles away. Ended up not using them.

DO NOT BUY ONLINE. CARDS ARE NOT ACTIVATED, AND YOU CAN'T GET A REFUND! ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS!

did not work at GC.

unbelievably good deal!
