Can one just print the $60 "coupon", take it to the store and sign up for auto renew then? (and be eligible for the 2 coupons that way)
So the $40 off online order is a coupon that gets mailed?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
i did this offer. Got both the 40$ card and coupon in 8 days.

The $40 Costco Gift Card will be Mailed to you within 4-6 weeks.

You can enroll in auto-renewal at the same time you complete your online redemption if your state requires you pay sales tax. Tax will be listed under Order Summary on the membership checkout page.

If Tax is listed as $0.00 in your Order Summary, you will need to enroll in auto-renewal after redeeming your membership. You may do so under the Membership Details section on your Costco confirmation page or from your Costco Account Details page.

Question:
Quote from TanTheMan77 :
During checkout on the Costco Page, after adding "Costco Shop Card" my auto renewal option went away before clicking Buy Membership.

I had to go into my member details afterwards, and Add my Visa for Auto Renewal. Will I still receive the incentives?
Answer:
Quote from Groupon :
Sure you will! As long as you've signed up using a Visa card and the auto-renewal is activated on your account, the incentives will be mailed to you with no inconveniences. If you want to verify this you can get in touch with Costco at https://customerservice.costco.com/

Your comment cannot be blank.

Nah. Try Sam's Scan and Go and you'll wonder why you're waiting in line at Costco.
According to the fine print, the $40 gift card and $40 off $250 online code are mailed 4-6 weeks after you activate the membership, but they also both expire on Dec 31. Keep that in mind if you plan to wait a while to activate, especially with all of the delays various delivery services have been experiencing lately, which are only likely to worsen as we get closer to Christmas.

edit: Groupon has confirmed in this thread that both the $40 off $250 online code and the $40 Shop Card expire at the end of January.

Also, the Groupon offer itself is available until August 31st.
Yes, you have about 11 months to do that.

Remember to sign up at BEGINNING of the month as membership always expires at end of month, 13 for 12.

Wife and I alternate membership years for this very purpose, but this year I bought a laptop and the Sony TV with my membership (expires November). Does any one know if I need the same membership # to claim warranty? Or can I let my membership lapse and when the time comes, add my name to my wife's new Groupon Costco membership?

Anyone know if I bought this, can I upgrade to Gold Star Executive and still getting the $40 in-store and online gift card? Thx

Yes. I did this last year at the membership counter. Pay $60. They will try to upsell you every chance they can.

Warranty is valid on same Costco membership only.
Are you able to switch membership between you and your spouse each year with same home address?

Do you know if wife counts as new member if she is secondary on current membership?

Quote from Hrshycro :
Good deal. I assume you can disable auto renewal after you get the promos? I'm still on my mom's membership, but would do this for the $20 in free monies.

Can we cancel the exisiting membership? My membership will end on first week of sept!

What If I cancel the membership and re-take the new membership , will i get the benefit? Do they check the email id? Phone number? Photo? Or Visa card? to prevent as new member?

nope. they changed it in the last couple years, and the complementary member is no longer considered a "new' member for promotions.

but...I think when you signup the clerk doing the signup can do things to make you a new member. You might get lucky.

If spouse is not added as complimentary member, can we take new membership then? My concern is will they check home address and cancel if new membership is same from the cancelled one?

I can't think of anything I would want to purchase that is $250+.
I never spend that much at one time at Sams or anywhere else.
Is this still a good deal if I have no plan to use to the $40 off?
