As families look for ways to keep dinner costs<\/a> down, warehouse clubs are competing for shoppers with prepared meals that offer an alternative to cooking from scratch or spending money on takeout.<\/p>\n

Among the prepared meal options is Sam’s Club’s Member’s Mark Chicken Shawarma Kit, a 37-ounce meal listed for just under $16 on the retailer’s website.<\/p>\n

The offering is part of a broader push by the warehouse club to give members more convenient options for putting dinner on the table, a Sam’s Club spokesperson said in a statement to Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n

“Our members consistently tell us they want convenient, high-quality meal solutions<\/a> at an incredible value,” the statement said.<\/p>\n

“From the Member’s Mark Chicken Shawarma Kit to dinner staples like our top-rated Member’s Mark Seasoned Rotisserie Chicken, we’re taking the guesswork out of mealtime with options our members can feel good about serving,” the statement added.<\/p>\n

The shawarma kit comes with six pitas, fully cooked chicken shawarma, Mediterranean-style bruschetta, feta cheese, creamy garlic sauce and spicy tahini sauce, according to the Sam’s Club website.<\/p>\n

For warehouse clubs, however, the competition<\/a> for families’ dinner budgets goes beyond offering a lower price.<\/p>\n

“Warehouse clubs aren’t just competing on price, they’re competing on the value of time,” St. Louis-based founder and CEO of SCALEBLAZER Laura Burkemper told Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n

“For busy families, the question at 5 p.m. isn’t simply, ‘What’s cheapest?’ It’s ‘What can I put on the table quickly, affordably, and without another decision to make?'” Burkemper said. “A $16 family meal is compelling because it solves several consumer pain points<\/a> at once: affordability, convenience, portion size, and predictability.”<\/p>\n

That price point may be particularly important for Sam’s Club shoppers.<\/p>\n

Bryan Gildenberg, New Jersey-based founder and CEO of Confluencer Commerce, told Fox News Digital that consumers are making different choices as they contend with higher food and fuel costs.<\/p>\n

“Remember, Sam’s Club and Costco look the same but aren’t the same,” Gildenberg said. “Costco’s member is more coastal and more affluent.”<\/p>\n

“For Sam’s, a price-sensitive meal deal makes enormous sense given that their members are more likely to be making different choices in the face of food and fuel inflation,” Gildenberg added.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, shoppers reviewing the kit on Sam’s Club’s website have praised its convenience and price, though some questioned whether the portions were enough to fill all six pitas.<\/p>\n

One reviewer called it “a total lifesaver for busy weeknights,” saying it offered an alternative to cooking after a long day or ordering expensive takeout<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Portion size was a recurring concern among some shoppers, with several saying they ran short of chicken or other ingredients before using all six pitas.<\/p>\n

“[My] family loved this. Everything seasoned well and flavorful,” one purchaser wrote, but added that there was “not enough for 6 pitas.” The shopper said the chicken barely fed four adults and that side dishes were needed to complete the meal.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
