For those of you who switch off every year between you and your spouse being the primary member, so you can take advantage of the new member deal….

How does that affect Costco's excellent return policy when the membership you bought something under is now cancelled?

It's tempting to cancel and start over BUT I want my expensive electronics, furniture, tires etc to continue to have what is essentially a protection plan pseudo warranty. I'm not going to return a cheap chair a year later, but if for example an expensive recliner stops working at 4 months I absolutely would bring it back.

How do you even get that to work nowadays? Last time I tried this, the member promo team denied it because of the same household address and the 18 months cooldown applies to that address.

So the 0.01 discount has been applied, does that mean I am eligible for the $45 costco shop card? Its 2025 and companies still doesn't have a clear indication whether we are getting the promo or not.

on paper, products purchased during membership continue to have coverage even after membership expiration. Haven't tried it though.

So you can't have multiple memberships per address?
What about rentals?

I've always wondered this as well so I hope you get a reply. This is the main reason I've never even tried the switch off with my Costco membership l.
Do you really plan on returning something more than year later?

And is it worth$45 a year?

Do you even read? "I'm not going to return a cheap chair a year later, but if for example an expensive recliner stops working at 4 months"

If you buy something today and your membership expires tomorrow, it certainly won't be "more than a year later" until your membership expires..
That said, even with an expired membership, it seems unlikely that Costco would jerk you around if you had a justified return like an unprompted product failure.

Anyone know if someone moved recently and their ID isn't updated with the new address, should they use the old or the new address while applying for the membership? I guess Costco's system might try to do address validation with the address on the ID?

Did they confirm that the promo was attached to the membership renewal ?
The CS did reassure me that if the penny was taken off that it should be eligible - was told to call after 2 weeks if I didn't get any notification

My spouse is the primary member, and I'm currently on her membership. If she were to remove me today, could I apply for this immediately, or would I need to wait 18 months? If immediately, does it matter that my address is the same as when I was on my spouse's membership?

I'm an existing Costco member and move to a new city. My membership is about to expire. Can I leverage this offer to get a new Costco card?

Wouldn't the Costco system validate the address with your ID? So using your new address might be a problem.

I feel better about this one than the Groupon Costco deal that everyone seemed to have an issue with.

Think I'll give it a shot, wife's car needs new rubber.

Good luck getting that $45 shop card.

Last time Groupon had this deal I got $50 digital gift card, $100 off $200 online order plus another vacation discount for $130 membership

I used different new address and new email and new phone and it still would not allow me to open a "new" account once I entered my name and bday. I have 2 more months on my 18 months.
