Hello folks,

This might be covered earlier but what is the deadline to redeem this offer once purchased through groupon? I have about 80 days left in current membership but I can sign up for a new one after it ends.

Is anyone else getting this message when trying to add the shop card:
We're sorry, but there is a problem with accepting Shop Card payments at this time. Please try again later or contact Customer Service. ?
First, I input all my info on the Costco website (on Samsung mobile internet browser) & it wouldn't let me submit it. I'd click submit & it wouldn't do anything. So I switched to Chrome & now it's giving me this error.
So frustrated right now, guess I'll try again later...

Thanks but thats the thing . Once you enter the shop card the section to enter the credit card completely disappears !
It didn't disappear for me. But I tried it with Internet Explorer or whatever they call it nowadays because Chrome was a mess.

So anyways, I just got off chat with groupon support and the representative I was talking to told me that I should still be eligible for the incentives if I turn on auto-renewal post purchase of the costco membership. I hope the computer systems accounts for this so that I dont have to message back after 1.5 months looking for my bonus shop card and coupon.

Transcript:
Kevin: for clarification, I am a new customer. What happened is I entered in my visa info, then I entered in the costco 60 dollar shop card info, which removed any option for auto renew (required to get the extra 40 dollar shop card and 40 dollar coupon)
Prabhu S: Follow the steps below to add, remove or change your membership Auto Renewal settings:

Go to Costco.com and select Sign In / Register in the upper right corner of the page.

Under "My Account," choose Renew Membership.

Add, remove or select a Visa® card for Auto Renew.
Prabhu S: Please add a card using the above , you will be eligible for the incentives.
Kevin: Well like I said, that wasn't an option
Kevin: As soon as I entered in the 60 dollar shop card, it removed the auto renewal
Kevin: there have been other people having this issue as well
Prabhu S: You can update your card info post redemption as well. Please retry with the above provided steps.
Prabhu S: https://customerservice.costco.co...12/kw/auto Please check this video for the auto renewal
Kevin: I did that afterwards, but the terms specified that I have to do it on registration
Kevin: I wouldnt want to miss out on the coupons because of a technical issue
Prabhu S: No I can confirm this should not be a issue, even if the auto renewal is done post purchase, it will still be eligible for the incentives.

Costco is much better than bj and sams.
I don't think so. I have Sam's club and Costco membership. They're good and bad at different things. For price Some things are cheaper some things are more expensive. But Love Sam's for order pick up. Super easy to drive up and they bring it to the parking lot, never had any problem with my order. Also what I like about Sam's is you can check store inventory online, Costco doesn't have online inventory check, especially during the corona Costco has limited availability on many things, when I run to Costco to get specific stuff then find out they are out of stock was very disappointed.. so now I use Sam's more often just because they're more convenience. But I still like Costco too for some stuff that can't get in anywhere eg. Korean seaweed, croissant , etc. Also Costco has amazing return policy. Overall if I keep only one I would choose Sam's especially during the pandemic.

Maybe this has already been mentioned (if so it's worth mentioning again), but just a warning to NOT attempt the Costco membership purchase process on a mobile device. I wasted almost an hour trying to get things to work but couldn't find a way to make the JavaScript register that I had in fact read through the conditions. Finally resorted to redoing everything on my laptop.

Your membership must be expired before 1 Apr 2020. This is written in fine print. So if you have any membership active and wants to activate after it's expiry then it will not work. please double check

In addition to what has been mentioned, the way I read the terms is you will need to have the new membership on someone else who is not on that current membership.

My membership expires in Nov and I plan to start a new one in December on wife's name who is not on the current membership.
