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.

I got a $10 GC too... I wonder if it's worth messaging them to see if they will give the other $35? However I was trying to find the actual deal from Costco's site instead of other deal sites, but I'm striking out. Does anyone know where this coupon code was originally posted?

My biggest suggestion for Costco (if you live near one) is to skip all of these membership deals and simply get the executive membership with the Costco Visa.

Use that card to buy all of your gas at Costco + any purchases you make there. We do this and make around $400 a year in their rewards and cash back program. This pays for the membership fee and gets us extra cash (you can actually cash the checks out at the cash registers there).

So...that's my vote.

well, that's kinda a ripoff; nobody would pay $60 just to get a $10 gc.

You don't want them to get business after they fooled you and others. I wish you would spare some of your time to call them and post their response here.

Sounds like a bait and switch with the promo. Looks like a third party and then a fourth party if there's such a thing?

Apologies if its been addressed, but has anybody had luck applying the code on a renewal outside of 18mos? My membership expired Nov 2020 and I get this error...

Please read a few posts above, even who were able to apply getting a fraction of what was promoted. You are not missing much without the coupon.

Same for me, I opened with different email id and also moved to a different state so hopefully that $10 gift card will trigger. Looks like $10 card only instead of $45 and signup only if you plan to make that membership worth every penny. I bought it only for gas and avoid stepping foot inside the store as I hate buying stuff in bulk and doesnt fit my lifestyle

You spend $60 annual just for savings on gas?
Would you even save that much annually? Costco gas has LONG lines, limited hours and is only a few cents cheaper.
IF you join rewards programs of Exon/Shell/Marathon etc etc - you can get discounts on gas. Plus better quality, no lines, 24 hour flexibility etc etc.

So help me out… why not get the executive for $120, get the $45 (maximizing chance at $45) and then have them refund your executive membership fee if you don't save it during the year?

Am I way off? I'm sure there is something I'm not thinking about.
