I did this a couple of times in the past. I never received the $40 Off $250 coupon.
I noticed is always activate your Costco membership in the beginning of the month to get the entire month. Something to remember.

Costco ends your membership at the end of the month regardless of when the membership was activated in that month.
I tried this once asking to create the new account under my name instead of my brother's. The employee totally ignored me and just renewed my brother's account. Never got the coupons or shop card

Hello. I have samsclub for years. I live about 5 miles from one. Costco is about 20 miles and mid city traffic (5 vs 30 minute drive). Is that longer drive worth it ? Mainly use SC for some household items, occasional clothes, and frozen food. Family of 3.
Not in my opinion. 20 miles is far out of the way. Sams club offers many of the same advantages.

Anyone know what identifies you as new member? Is it email address, credit card, address? For BJ's I it's definitely email address, but I just swap primary member between my wife and I each year. My Costco membership expired February and don't want to waste money on this.

I've heard costco uses every excuse to not payout these rewards. Any way to get a refund in the event they don't?

No Costco near me but really wanting to join because of all the deals I see here on SD... mainly the av receivers and TVs with the extended warranties. How decent is their online shopping? Free shipping, easy returns or...?

It depends on what kind of things or services you buy.
It's totally worth it if you really use Samsclub for couple of times a month or even couple of hundred dollar worth items on one single shopping.
I have both…. And can definitely say Costco is solid gold.
If you never used Costco before and skeptical…ask any family or friends to get you a Costco Shop card worth 50 or 100 $
And
That way you don't need to buy membership to check out the Costco.
Go on a Saturday noon… and check it out and added bonus check out the different Free food samples.

costco's always been pretty strict about
the 18 month timeout between memberships.

UPDATE got this from a costco manager;
Memo I got in my warehouse says
"For new members and memberships that expired prior to January 1 2022."

so confirmed that prior members who expire
in 2021 can get membership "reactivation"
using this Groupon/LS offer.

Costco online is completely a different business entity than Costco brick & mortar. The Physical Costco can be used to return things you buy from Costco online. If the are no Costco's near you, you might want to check how you can return your purchases.

I used the Groupon deal two years ago and I received both. They take some time to arrive, make sure you have auto renewal on and leave it enabled until you receive both coupons. Otherwise, you may not get it.

Similar happened to me. I ended up shopping that day, putting my stuff in the car and then returning the membership just in spite.

I always was told it's 6 months. Promo deal like this worked for me and I was just past the 6 month mark
