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.

This deal ends 1-1-23

Since Costco is a 40 mile round trip for me, I was thinking of just buying a Costco Shop card off Ebay and using that for entry into the store.

Anyone know if we do that, are we eligible for the coupons and same pricing as members?

If I bought the membership, I might actually go 2 times in a year. Looks like if we order online they charge a 3.00 fee per item so ordering online isn't worth buying a membership.

Quote from patramaze :
I hope Costco understands your situation and considers it as a glitch so that you get your Shop Card. Before making the payment when the price didn't drop by a penny it would have been better to stop and not place the order. Dealing with such issues afterward can be very difficult as getting a good customer representative is part of the luck.
I was successful with CS first thing on Saturday morning although it may be another 2 weeks before they e-mail the $45 shop card.

I guess I was expecting elite customer service each time based on how Costco hypes their brand.

You will see this in previous comments on this thread. You all need to read the thread. Most questions are answered.

>>It's under the terms and conditions under payment window. "You agree to auto renew……". You can then go into settings after you receive $45 digital shop card and cancel (turn it to NO) auto renewal!
This is false. I've learned that auto renewal is not an option to click on if you are paying using a VISA card. If you are using other payment methods then a check box appears at the check out.

What is the subject line of the email for the gift card?

Did OP added the promo code "HOLIDAY22" to this post lately? Original thread only mentioned deal from Groupon and link to the deal with 1 cent off at check out without entering any promo code at all?

Applied on Nov 1st for executive membership without knowing this offer. Called customer care later and they told can't apply the coupon. But today I got the physical shop card for $50 in mail. Anyone else on the same boat?

Where does it say it ends on Jan 1st?

Does it mean one can join on Jan 1st and still qualify for the offer? Thanks
