The 5 Best Game Day Snacks You Can Buy at Sam's Club

Make sure you have these snacks on hand.

This year, 192.2 million adults plan on watching the big game, with 103.5 million planning to throw or attend a party. Americans are expected to spend $16.5 billion this weekend, with food and drink making up 80% of that. Snacks are an essential part of any party. Whether you're hosting this weekend or just snuggling up on the couch, Sam's Club is one of the best places to pick up some popular game-day snacks without draining your checking account. 

1. Tyson Fully Cooked Bone-In Buffalo Style Hot Chicken Wings

Chicken wings are one of the most popular snacks for the big game. In fact, Americans are expected to eat a record-breaking 1.45 billion chicken wings this weekend. To put this in perspective, if you ate three wings per minute for 24 hours, it would take you 920 years to eat all those wings!
