Amazon gave me refunds for the cards even tho one was over a year old and I threw them in the trash.
Next memory cards I buy will be directly from Best Buy via price matching to Amazon.
That seems to be the best/safest solution.
First, if you are already a gopro subscriber, they give you an additional discount on the camera. I am not, so I couldn't see what the discount actually was.
When you check out, they break out the subscription cost (49.99) separately from the bundle cost and ask you to acknowledge it. At first, I was confused and thought they were adding this to the total cost, but when I checked out, it wasn't added. I did have to pay tax, and 2-day shipping was free.

If the HERO9 was $400+ by itself like predicted, it's easier to say no it's not worth the difference. If a similar bundle is $400 including the year of subscription, it's more tempting to return the 8 and upgrade to the 9.
*The Costco bundle includes a case which the HERO9 bundle doesn't, but that's not a dealbreaker.
The front screen is nice, and 20mp photos are a big plus... and "30% more battery life" answers my biggest complaint after a week with the HERO8.

I ordered the camera, dual battery charger, and handler. These items have a total retail value of $530,or $350 on sale. Plus the $50 subscription.
Tax in my area is 7%, and I was initially charged $50 + $389 (separate transactions). This $389 works out to $350 + $39 tax (which would be based on $555 worth of goods/services). I can't get that math to work out exactly.. unless they charged tax on full retail price plus half of the subscription.
With the $14 credit, my total cost is now $424. This is the $50 subscription, plus $350 of goods, plus tax on just $350. So it seems that they initially calculate it too high but then refund you the difference? They don't even charge tax on the subscription, so that's nice.
**all numbers rounded to nearest dollar, but my Excel calculations match within 2 cents.
