Your comment cannot be blank.

This is the best Costco new membership deal, IMO. No vouchers to redeem & no free items that you may or may not like. Just a gift/shop card that's essentially the same as cash. Gift cards can also be used at Costco gas pumps.

You MUST pay with a VISA for this deal and you MUST enable autorenewal. Check your account after purchasing your membership and make sure to enable autorenewal, if it is not already enabled. You can always disable this later, after you receive your promotional gift card and coupon.

Your membership will expire next year, in the same month, on the last day of the month you started your membership. So, if you signed up on Sept 1 or Sept 30 of this year, your membership would end on Sept 30 2022, either way. Therefore, it is always advantageous to join as close to the beginning of a month as possible therefore getting essentially 13 months of membership for the price of 12.

This isn't specifically relevant to this deal, but, another thing to note regarding membership timing is that not having autorenewal enabled does not mean that Costco still won't get you. If you purchase a new membership within 2 months of when your membership old membership expired, Costco will backdate your new membership to the end date of your old membership, such that you will actually lose 2 months of the new ship you are purchasing. This isn't some secret sneaky policy either - It's right in the publicly posted membership agreement. They will move the start of your membership date to the date that you actually signed up if you complain, but you'll have to fight them for it.

A few important points from the terms that constantly came up the last time this deal was offered:

• The Shop (Gift) Card will be mailed 4 to 6 weeks after sign-up.

• The $40 off $250+ Costco.com coupon will be emailed 1-2 weeks after sign-up.

• Valid for NEW memberships only.

To qualify as a new member, an existing Costco membership must be EXPIRED at least 18 MONTHS or more.
It may be cheaper but sam's scan and go app is awesome for in store and gas purchases. Don't have to wait in line ever again.
You wouldn't have qualified as a new member, anyway, if that helps you feel any better.

I had a huge fail and forgot my online code expired on Nov 14th... One day ago... Ugh... What a tort. I chatted with customer service and begged, but I got nothing. Wow. I was surprised. Everyone talks about their customer service being great, but this chat rep was cold as ice.

I then called them, and after an hour with a really nice rep, I got something really weird? "Call us back when you buy your purchase and we will credit you back." I took it. Better than nothing. But I have heard of people getting new codes and such. Is my experience weird? Has anyone here had a better experience with their expired coupon?

Thanks in advance!

For all you Sam's haters and Costco fanboys, I have not been impressed with Costco so far. They did not send the $40 off $250 for this promotion and said they can't honor it now that I'm asking. I joined due to this offer. I will likely stay with Sam's. So far I have found very little to entice me to stay with Costco, now they just blow me off about this promo like it's not that big of a deal. Tell me what is so great about Costco. Is it just a Wal-Mart hatred thing or something else? LOL squared.


Chat from first chat contact: Regrettably, this offer is showing as inactive. We unfortunately cannot honor the $40 off of $250 or more since it was linked to a third party promotion that we no longer are associated with.

Went through two more and still got shut down.

I also did this promotion and never got the gift card or coupon. Def my local club they told me to call customer support. Customer support told me it takes 1-2 months. Never got it. Called customer support again today and they said - sorry the promotion is over and cannot give me the coupon.
