Been swapping for years. Basically just switch between parties at same location via different emails and can even use different CCs if you wish. Doesn't matter even if other party is second, just can't go primary party to primary party w/o it being a renewal or breaking the listed rules. Same applies to Sam's Club.

It can make it messy, but as long as you keep proof of the membership number it was purchased under, never been a problem. They don't say can't return just because your membership is expired and don't have to have a current one to return stuff. Pro tip: Take pictures of reciepts as they often fade and while it isn't a big deal if bought under current membership, it makes it difficult if you do get new number every 12-18 months.

How do you swap every year if it takes 18 months to quilify as a new member again?

Not sure where and why it says that. Anyone over 16 can get a free card if they live at the same address. You get their regular membership.
Click the link in the OP and scroll down about a page.

I didn't make it up, just what it says.

Can confirm that the 18 months lapse of membership does not work with this promo for me either. I left a message for the stacksocial customer support that they need to remove the 18 month disclaimer if it no longer applies (my membership lapsed 4 years ago and Im signed up on the visa autopay according to the directions, however promo code does not work). Also am hoping to get a refund. Posting my experience to save those who are reading the comments time and frustration.
Were you able to get a refund? It doesn't look like lapsed members are eligible for the $40 shop card, only new members:

Explain please.


Are you saying they do not care if your membership is expired, and you can still return stuff you bought when you membership was valid?

Or you just gotta be an active member (secondary member at minimum), at the time of return processing as well?

Thanks.
Yes you can return stuff if your membership is expired.

I wouldn't argue but it is not true. I just signed up. I could add additional card holders right now.

You can just have a friend or family member buy you a stash of Costco cash cards (store gift cards) and you will be able to get into the store, make purchases, and even make returns without having a membership. I have been doing it for years and saved a lot of money on membership fees. The cash card even works at their gas pumps.
Tell me more. 1. how does it work at the counter since it asks for membership card at the start? 2. say I have $100 worth of cash card and want to buy something worth $125, how does that work?

do I need to use an alias? I paid for an executive membership 2 - 3 weeks ago and $60 for a gold one beats the exec.

How much time it will take to get the 40$ shop card? Is this comes from Costco?

I've tried a few times to use the code at online checkout, and it keeps saying "Sorry, we are experiencing technical issues. Please try again later." Is anyone else having this problem?
