Sam's Club is quietly testing a new subscription service that allows customers to order items like diapers and printer cartridges online, a sign that Web retailers are posing a threat in areas of retail that were once considered relatively safe. Called "My Subscriptions," the service mirrors Amazon.com Inc.'s Subscribe & Save program, which was launched in 2007 and has given the Internet retailer a foothold in sales of basic consumer products. Sam's Club, a unit of Wal-Mart Stores Inc., is launching the service as Amazon prepares to move deeper into the business itself. Until now, warehouse clubs like Sam's had been mostly insulated from the onslaught of online retailers like Amazon.
