FYI - I went through the membership signup process a couple of times and ended up with going into limbo both times - costco system hung up. Signed up for a costco account and entered the process and it worked!

Your comment cannot be blank.

Featured Comments

If anyone is trying to decide between the regular and executive membership, just know/remember you need to spend $3000 in store or online annually (with a few exclusions) for the executive membership to pay for itself/recoup the extra cost. Every dollar after that is profit.

And I believe you can get a refund if you decide halfway through that you definitely won't make it, just in case.
Their scan and go app is phenomenal though. Hate standing in line at Costco like a sucker. Their TP and paper towels are still cheaper than HEB, and better quality too. Bottled water is cheaper as well, if you need bottled water.
FYI for anyone who bit on the $20 card offer last week - no price match on membership promotional offers. I tried on chat with a representative earlier.

My wife's membership ends in May. I have some questions:

1. does membership start immediately after purchase at Costco site? Note that the stacksocial deal for same gift card offer can be redeemed within 60 days.
2. I have never been listed as household member under wife's membership. Am I eligible as a "new member" under this offer?

thx!
For 2, yes. But they maybe getting more strict.

Not a repost. Two different retailers. This one is directly through Costco.

you always setup new member as auto renewal
in order to qualify for any special promotion.
set a reminder in about 9 months to log back
into your online account and disable it.

another trick is not to start a new membership
till the first days of a month, so you get nearly
13 months of membership instead of 12,
so if you start may 2nd, then your membership
will run thru the end of may 31st, not stop on
may 1, 2025.

Same. It's taking a penny off and that's all it's showing.

maybe do it here;

https://slickdeals.net/f/17429481-1-year-costco-gold-star-membership-for-new-members-only-40-digital-costco-shop-card-60?src=rcm_category

that way you can buy the offer now, activated it may1 for the 13th month.
you'll get the $40 gift card code via email, just print it and bring it to the store
and the cashier can scan it at checkout to give you the credit on your purchases.

personally i don't trust doing anything directly with costco
their websites are way too antiquated to handle this right.
i don't recommend using costco online for purchases either.

The penny off supposedly shows that the promotion was applied. I bought a membership last week with the $20 digital card reward that can take up to 2 weeks for email delivery.
