I got the email yesterday with the $45 shop card. Paid with Visa, didn't turn off auto-renewal until I received the email. Great deal, ty again OP

Costco support chat confirmed the code is valid and that you will receive a shop card, however because she didn't work in membership she wasn't able to see how much it was for (membership dept is closed at the moment). I also found this page: https://clarkdeals.com/deal/costc...embership/

Which states the same as the OP, but also gives an expiry date of Jan 1 2023.

It's under the payment window

"If you are purchasing this membership with a Visa card, you agree that your Costco membership fee will automatically renew at the membership price you've selected and be charged to your selected credit card annually on the first day of your renewal month until you choose a different form of payment or cancel your Costco membership. View additional terms and details.
If you are using a different form of payment, you can set up Auto Renew after the purchase."

Once you get shop card, immediately log back in and turn OFF auto renew. That flags system to send you out marketing communication (normally on monthly flyer) to renew with $20 off for 2024 via in store.

Details of the offer states: Note: You will see a $0.01 deduction on your membership cost after the promo code is entered. This indicates that your promo code has been accepted and you will receive the promotion incentives.

anybody tried for executive membership ? terms and conditions say $45 card regardless of executive or gold membership. I remember we used to buy 2 gold membership though groupon and buy executive membership at costco for $120 combining it.

Will $45 be deducted from my refund if I cancel before the year is up?

I don't see that documented in the details, but it would likely be or else you'd end up profiting with $45 in merchandise value.

Any way to combine this with a gift of membership?

I guess I'm asking how I can stack the code with a membership I'm giving to someone. It looks like signup online using the code results in creation of a Costco.com account.

Noticed in the details in one place it states you'll receive the $45 gift card by email within 2 weeks, while in other places it states 4 - 6 weeks. When I went to the membership desk at my local Costco to pickup my card I asked about it, they were familiar with the promotion and said it can take up to 6 weeks to receive the $45 gift card and 2 weeks was only a minimum.

I was already a member of Sam's Club and went for this deal since I thought they'd have more variety for me to choose from and hopefully comparable or better pricing. After browsing through the entire warehouse I found that Costco's pricing was noticeably higher on most common items and they didn't have enough different items of interest to me to justify having both memberships. So I went back to the customer service desk and cancelled my membership where they issued me a full refund.

Holiday Shopping just got sweeter with this AMAZING deal on Costco Membership. Right now, get Costco Gold Star Membership for only $15 (after $45 Costco Shop Card).

You'll notice your total drop down by a penny. You'll pay $59.99 today and will receive $45 Shop Card (Costco Gift Card) in email in a few days! This effectively makes your membership cost only $15!

OP, thanks for sharing. Please don't subtract the value of bonus gift cards in determining the final price.

A better title:
Costco Gold Star Membership + $45 Costco Gift Card (New members only) $60

First time signing up for a Costco membership. The code worked for me. Took a penny off the membership price.

Thought we had a Venmo account but never used it after signing up, would it take long or complicated to get Venmo Via or PayPal? I have to verify the account with Bank or checking can I just stick a credit card in the account? Partner is traveling and I don't know if I could get that info… does email and or name on Venmo have to match up with those that you use on Costco membership? should I take the time to try it even as busy as we are, for the chance that we can save another 20? when do these offers expire?? is Costco membership worth it if mostly we will be just shopping for food items mostly online/delivery? For medium size family. are you saving so much more when you sign in with your membership on Instacart or other delivery apps?
Quote from mauiadventure :
Works on both, he was doing the gold membership deal where its 60-45. You should do it through venmo if you have the $20 off memberships with costco. I just used the venmo debit card i keep handing and ill be profiting $5 on this deal since 60-45+20=5. its great
just trying to squeeze the most I can out of this deal because most of the years when we had Costco membership, we ended up not using it much because of time constraints mostly, but really like some of the selections they have

i have the membership for only 2 reasons: from time to time you see pretty good costco-only deals posted on sd so it will be nice to take advantage of those. also when driving, on the road, i try to visit all the sams gas stations but every now and again, there isn't one but i see costco gas and wish i had a costco card.

disregard the venmo deal while you're doing this Costco deal. venmo and dosh know because our total is 59.99 and not 60 that we did the Costco promotion. just went back and forth with both of them and got nowhere. didn't qualify for the additional $20

the other guy in this thread got lucky and got a $5 credit but I got turned down. YMMV. but if I were you I'd just go ahead with this for the $45 off.
