And I believe you can get a refund if you decide halfway through that you definitely won't make it, just in case.

Here are the exact terms:
Reward is approximately 2% of pre-tax purchases (less refunds) of most merchandise purchased through: front-end registers, most ancillary business registers at Costco warehouses and Costco websites in the U.S. and Canada by U.S. and Canadian residents and qualifying purchases made directly from Costco Travel once travel is completed. In the U.S., Rewards are not calculated: (i) on purchases of cigarettes or tobacco-related products, gasoline, Costco Shop Cards, postage stamps, alcoholic beverages in certain states (including Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Georgia, Hawaii, Kansas, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, New Hampshire, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and Vermont), prescription purchases in certain states (including Arkansas, New Jersey, and New York), and at food courts; (ii) on membership fees; (iii) on purchases not recorded through Costco's front-end registers and transactions done on or through websites not hosted by Costco even if accessed through Costco.com, including all business, consumer, and insurance services, the Online Photo Center, and the My Publisher website; (iv) on miscellaneous fees, deposits and taxes, including sales tax and shipping; (v) where prohibited by law or regulation; (vi) on purchases made by anyone other than the account's Primary or Primary Household Cardholder; (vii) as to travel purchases: surcharges, gratuities, trip protection, travel purchased through a third party, upgrades, rental car equipment, resort charges and port charges; and (viii) on certain other categories as determined at Costco's discretion, which may change without notice.
This will be Costco location/manager dependent. In order to make a return, they scan your Costco membership card that corresponds to the product purchased. It is all in their system. To do a return without is technically against their procedures, hence in some cases manager approval will be necessary. I have shopped and returned items at Costcos in 10 different states over the years, including some of the busiest in the nation. My brother in law is also the store manager of a Costco. This has been my experience and what he has told me about it as well. Ymmv of course.
I mean, that's what the receipt is for. It makes sense that anything purchased while using a Costco membership, all the benefits stay with that purchase. That's why Costco has no sort of documentation saying it's at discretion.
Whatever you say. The benefits are with the membership. Otherwise what would stop folks from buying a big ticket item, then cancelling their membership, then returning it years later.
I have never once made a return where they did not make me scan my membership card.
So no, your interpretation does not make sense. If you read carefully, their return policy includes this:
*Limitations apply. See the membership counter or Costco.com for details
The devil is in the details.

Yes, limitations on how long to return certain items, like a tv. If they didn't allow returns or resulting in discretion when the membership is over, it would be stated. Stating otherwise without citation from Costco is just spreading misinformation.
You are the one spreading misinformation. You are stating your opinion.

It's not an opinion. You're literally the one stating an opinion. Nothing in there says what you stated. You're digging in an empty barrel.
Shop card is emailed to you like 2-3 weeks later...
