Sam's Club

Sam's Club sells 16-inch pizzas made fresh daily at each location for under $9. Depending on availability, you can choose from pepperoni, cheese, or four-meat options, with pepperoni, bacon, ham, and Italian sausage.

Some Redditors even raved about a supreme pizza option, though the website didn't list it as a current offering.

If you want a fresh slice without buying the whole pie, you can nab a giant one and a soda for $2.50 in the food court.

Costco

If you thought a 16-inch pizza from Sam's Club couldn't be beat at that price, Costco may have one-upped their competitor with an 18-inch, 12-slice pizza for just $9.95.

They only have two options for full pies: cheese or pepperoni. Reddit user TheGame81677 raves about it, and it seems to have become a cult classic food item.

Slices of these two options and pork topping substitutes are available a la carte for $1.99 each.

Wegmans

East Coast grocer Wegmans carries popular, fully-cooked, fresh pizzas.

Their original crust pizza has medium, 17-ounce options that feed two to three people for around $12 each and large, 41-ounce options meant to feed three to four that land around $18 each.

The real crown of their options? The nine- and ten-ounce naan crust specialty pizzas they offer, with varieties like buffalo chicken and Italian sausage and banana pepper. These varieties are reasonable at around $12 each.

Shopping pro tip: This month's best deals

August is here, and with it comes the final stretch of summer. It’s a great time to soak up the season and scoop up hot deals before they fade. Look for savings on:

  • Travel and getaway must-haves
  • Back-to-school basics
  • Clearance swimwear and warm-weather styles
  • For grocery savings, grab peak-season produce, like tomatoes, cucumbers, melons, and berries

As retailers shift their focus to fall, August is the last chance to snag summer essentials at unbeatable prices. Shop smart now before the season (and the savings) slip away.

Walmart

Quick tips: How to save on your grocery bill

Grocery shopping doesn't have to break the bank when you use the right strategies. Here are three quick tips for reducing food expenses:

  • Buy store brands instead of name brands whenever possible.
  • Always make sure to compare unit prices, not just sticker prices.
  • Join your store's loyalty program so you don’t miss out on member discounts.

Even though something like choosing coupons in your grocery store app can feel like an annoying task, the savings can really add up.

Aldi

You may not have guessed it, but Aldi's Mama Cozzi take-and-bake options are great, and "Aldi Finds" vary seasonally.

Their cauliflower crust pizzas — which come in cheese, pepperoni, and veggie — are just $8.79 for a 12-inch pie.
