Health Devices and Mobility Aids
With age often come health and mobility challenges. According to CNBC's August 2024 Your Money retirement survey, 31% of current retirees say declining health or illness is their biggest worry. Dealing with healthcare costs was the second biggest concern.
Sam's Club sells a variety of smart health devices to track your heart rate, fitness and blood pressure, as well as mobility aids, including reclining chairs, walkers, toilet safety rails, walking canes and more.
Ergonomic Mattress
An ergonomic mattress can be expensive, but considering most people spend one-third of their lives in bed, it's a good investment, Forbes reported. Sam's Club sells memory foam and hybrid mattresses at varying prices. Currently, the store is running deals on Tempur-Pedic mattresses, between $400 and $600 off, until Sept. 9.
Home Security
Home security systems aren't always cheap, but the alternative of worrying about your home and safety every night is more costly. Older adults are often an easy target for home invasions, but a security system can provide an extra layer of protection without a contract.
Fitness Gear
Health and fitness should be a top priority in retirement. Keeping an active lifestyle can help lower the risk of age-related conditions, such as heart disease, diabetes and strokes, build strength and improve mobility, CNN reported.
Some fitness equipment costs hundreds (and even thousands) of dollars, but Sam's Club also sells equipment that's affordable and practical enough to use at home every day.
