Anyone know of any good deals for Family 12-month membership codes from retailers? This deal could get better with retailer discounts.

So far, it looks like the major retailers don't have a discount on the price, except maybe 5% off with GameStop (Pro Members) or Target (RedCard), and loyalty points with GameStop or Target. I'm not sure what Best Buy does nowadays, but probably them too with their membership or whatever.

I saw a promo n64 pin pack at Best Buy. That seems like the best bundle I could find

On the pin box it says not for renewals. I haven't looked into it further.

Just got a switch and not familiar with all its features. How come this is a front page deal when it says it's equal to $10?

Would it be best to buy the Costco e-gift cards for 10% off or wait for deal at a retailer?

Worth it. There probably won't be a better deal for the gift cards at Costco than at a retailer before this offer expires on 8/11.

You can redeem cheap eshop credit (e g Costco 10% off) and then use that to buy one of these family renewals and get $10 in eshop credit back

It should as long as you opted in. But you shouldn't see the points yet. The fine print says the points will show up within 7 days of purchase.

It's the equivalent of almost 30% back on a normal family membership ($35), or 12.5% back on an expansion membership ($80). It's better than nothing, which is what you typically get. There have been decent deals in the past with retailers, but nothing consistent or predictable, and not much better than this. I'd get it one year of this while you can, and if another deal does comes up, you can always buy a code and hold on to it until your next expiration comes up.

This deal worked for me. I added another year to my Family+Expansion pass for $79. With the equivalent of earning $10 in gold points, it makes the renewal $69!

You should be able to stack this deal with eshop gift cards.

My family sub was ending in December. Good of a reason as any to add another year.

Thanks for the info, OP.

I need another eshop gift card from Costco for this, but I always feel like as soon as I buy one they'll run the $40 deal. 😂 They ran that three times between Dec 2022 and June 2023 and now nothing for a year. I'm wondering if they'll do it anymore at all.
