Ever noticed tiny letters on Sam’s Club price tags and wondered what they mean? Those letters actually reveal important clues about each product’s future in the store and can give you a real advantage as a shopper.
If you see a “C” on the tag, it means that item is being discontinued. Once it sells out, it won’t come back, so picking it up now is your last opportunity. These discreet “C” codes often hide in the corners of price tags, quietly signaling limited-time offers.
An “A” on the price tag indicates the product is active—meaning it will remain available, and there’s a good chance it could go on sale later. This letter gives shoppers confidence to wait a little if they don’t need it immediately.

The “N” tag stands for “never out,” referring to essentials that Sam’s Club keeps in stock all year. These reliable products are less likely to go on discount but guarantee availability whenever you need them.
Retail expert Joshua Francia recommends using these tags to plan your shopping. Knowing whether an item is on the way out, staying steady, or always in stock helps you decide when to buy. So pay attention to those little letters—they might just save you money and time.
