BENTONVILLE, Ark. and SAN FRANCISCO, Oct.18, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- After initially joining forces in February, Sam's Club and Instacart have announced the national expansion of their partnership to offer same-day delivery to more than half of all Sam's Clubs across the nation by the end of October. Just in time for the holidays, Sam's Club customers can get gifting and small appliances, in addition to food and groceries, delivered in as fast as an hour through Instacart.
Sam's Club grocery delivery via Instacart will be available to nearly 1,000 new ZIP codes, more than 100 new clubs, and 90 new markets, including New Jersey, Indianapolis, and Houston, among others, by the end of October.

"To help the holidays run smooth, we're offering a wide product assortment available on Instacart so shoppers can now get household goods delivered.
