Since I "trust" Groupon a little more, I told my elderly neighbor to use Groupon. Showed her how to get a one-time virtual credit card number to avoid getting charged random stuff by Groupon in the future. (also to avoid the possibility of getting auto-renewed by Costco next year... which is what Sam's Club likes to do if they have your credit card # on file)
She signed up and paid the $65 on Groupon's website yesterday. The credit card was immediately charged $65. A minute later, Groupon sent a confirmation email. About 5 minutes after that, Costco sent an email directly(from a Costco @costco.com email address) thanking her for joining. The email also contained her new Costco membership number. She used that memberrship number and registered for a new Costco.com account. It worked immediately and accepted the new membership.
Groupon's page says that the $45 Costco gift cash card will arrive in about 10 days... will update this once my neighbor tells me she receives it in her email.
(note: I used to let her use my company-issued Costco card to shop because Costco gave us membership cards with no photos for some odd reason... sometimes I even accompany her, but I can't always go with her. my nearest Costco just started doing the card scanning at the entrance door... so my elderly neighbor needs her own membership now)

although they don't seem care if two different people in the same household sign up alternatively after every 18 months)

I used all the same personal info as my expired card and existing online account. Nevertheless, Costco sent the 'Welcome' email and a NEW membership number. It was only a couple of days ago, so I can't say I've got the $45 GC at this point. Fingers crossed.
Update 12/30: Okay, I got the Shop Card this AM. Signed up with Groupon the 17th. I just now used it with no issues.

I WAS SUPPOSED TO RECEIVE A DIGITAL SHOP CARD FROM COSTCO, BUT IT HAS NOT ARRIVED. WHAT SHOULD I DO?
