Well speaking just for myself the closest SAM is 180 miles round trip so it
is a little far for small things and while the guest card will get you in
the door if you buy anything they will charge you a 10% service fee at
checkout so not a great deal on most things. A printable free one day guest
card is at the link below, it is in .pdf file. Wayne
