Sam’s Club is the best place to go when you’re searching for last-minute party supplies and home essentials, and New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day gathering must-haves are no exception. While you’re there, you can grab a new bed your pup can snuggle into while ignoring the loud booms from fireworks or a new stuffed toy to keep them company while you’re enjoying a New Year’s Eve party without them.

Though if you’re staring at the last can of wet cat food on the counter, knowing that if your cat doesn’t get her food first thing on New Year’s Day she may stage a coup with the dog, you know you may need to make a trip to Sam’s Club anyway. There’s nothing like a deadline to get you out the door, but you may be wondering: Is Sam’s Club open on New Year’s Day?
