Deal Details
Two day sale - May 15th and May 16th
Costco extended the sale to the 18th

If you have the Instacart/PayPal 30% coupon that will also lower the price.

Some people received $30 off $100 wholesale from Instacart which will help with some fees if you choose to order direct from Instacart.

I am not sure if iPad is excluded from this coupon but some people also received a $15 off $100 or $15 off $175 from Costco same day email.

If you are new to Instacart there may be some introductory offers like Instacart+ or free delivery.

Other notes:
Discover 5% cashback with PayPal
Some people may have 5% PayPal with Chase offers until May 31st

PayPal removed my "points pending" from my transaction. It was present, then Costco/Instacart added a second pending charge ("...temrporarily authorized for $715. You should see the hold removed and a final charge..."). When the item was delivered, the second pending charge was removed and now the Pending Points is no longer with my original (or new "final" replacement charge) charge.

Has this happened to anyone else? I used Costco Same Day.

EDIT: I can see from my PayPal history I have a charge for ~$347 (the amount that Instacart authorized, even though order total was $341) and final charge was ~$341. It appears that because the final charge was done as a second transaction, it voided the original transaction the offer was pending on. Called PayPal, customer service was unhelpful as you could suspect... Wasted money on tip, offer gone, etc.

With that much savings, you can toss the delivery driver $20 and still come out ahead.
People cant do math. The Instacart fees on Costco electronics is a few bucks and a few buck tip.

Doesn't Costco also sell Instacart giftcards that you can buy at discount to make this even cheaper? Or does that not stack?
Same-day at Costco let's you use Instacart gift cards I thought.
They no longer sell Instacart gift cards. They do sell Doordash and sometimes you can do some deals with Best Buy.

I'm seeing approximately $365 after Instacart fees and taxes (free shipping), so then after PayPal gives the 30% cash back, will be $265.

How are you guys getting $200 or below?

Can someone please kindly post a step by step (which app to use or if browser which website ) because there's a hot mess of posts and information and so far nothing is clear. Ton of confusion.

Looks like if u just do insta/PayPal offer of 30%, it's only a $65ish savings because of fees/tips. Still better deal than regular. Thanks OP!
This is what I'm saying! My final price is about $265. (Post 30%, $100 PayPal discount). Someone please explain step by step how you're getting $212 or even less

$212 happens after 90 days, ithink it as a mail in rebate without mailing.

You pay $312 + $20 taxes = $332 today.


You get back $100 Paypal + $20 Card Cashback = $120 in 90 days.
What is this $20 card cash back ?! Where are you getting that

I'm in the market for the cheapest iPad, but this deal seems cumbersome. Would I get the discount if I buy on Costco.com clicking on the InstaCart option? Or does it have to be through PayPal? Then I would have to wait 90 days to get $100 back when I have to spend $40+ right now on tip and the higher price through InstaCart. Then after 90 days the rebate doesn't stick then it's past Costco return period.

The sales ends today. If I place order now, the shopper will buy it tomorrow, which reflect tomorrow's normal price. So there is no point or ordering through instancart now right?

Wondering the same. This deal is basically expired right? Even though Instacart shows the discounted price at the moment?

When I searched online, that's what people said. I don't know if it is already paid for and they got just to pick it up at the counter or they have buy it then.
