They are selling membership gift packets (shopping bag and certificate) in store for $65 with a $30 bonus card.
I suspect those gift memberships don't have the same "must be a new member" restrictions but I'm not certain.


edit: took a photo of the sign in store today with terms:

"*To recetive a Digital Costco Shop Card, you must have a vald email address. f you elect not to providk a valld emall address a Digital Costco Shop Card will not be emailed. Vaid only for members who purchase a 1Giftof Memnbership i in select participating Costcol locations Limit three per household. Nontransferable and may not be combined with any other promotion. Mernbers wto purchase the Gift of Membership will receive a Digital Costco Shop Card by email il within 2 weeks of sign-up. Costco Shop Cards are not redeemable for cash, except as required by law. Costco membership is $65 a year. An Executive Membership is an additional $65 upgrade fee a year. Each merber stip includes one free Hiousehold Carc May be subiject to sales tax. Costco accepts al isa? cards, as well as Cash, checks, debit/ATM cards, EBT and Costco Shop Cards. Departments and product selection may vary. Valid at select U.S. Costco locations"

I do not see any "new" requirement to get the $30 bonus. forgive the typos, I was lazy and used a photo to text capture

Would this work for me if I'm already a cardholder on someone else's business account?

Right? These corpos just keep screwing over people who renew or already sub. Starting to really get tired. I won't jump through the hoops because Costco is pretty hardcore about their memberships and it's only 10 mins away. I had a problem with my phone not showing my membership after I logged in, I had to go to the service desk and they had to approve it. Yikes for the future this will only get worse.
Lol we "lived with my father-in-law" for like 2+ years they asked us to visit the service center, we always "forgot". We wised up and paid cash instead of checks with our address on it and then they started taking our CC. Haven't been back in over a year.

(If anyone didn't get it we did not live with our father-in-law)

It's a subscription Ponzi scheme. Your membership fees are being used to bring in new members. They make most of their profits from the membership fees

unfortunately they are not selling executive membership cards. Only Gift of membership which is basically a $65 gift car but only for membership sign up. You can transfer the gift of membership to a shop card ( Costco gift cards ) if you ask them at the membership desk.
Technically you can guy 2, 1 with a bag and 1 with a hat. keep the goodies and give them the 2 cards - edited to added new info
Do you mind rewriting this so it makes sense. Imma confused.

If I get this deal on 12/31, does the membership start on the same day or when I go to a club to get my card?

Dont get it on 12/31 it will expire next year on 12/31 . If you get it on 01/01 it will expire 01/31 so you kind of get a month free

Did anyone get a confirmation e-mail after doing this? I think the directions said to take the e-mail to Costco for the card, but I haven't received an e-mail.

If I am an existing member (with membership expiring in next month), can I just sign up with a different email address? (Or does the phone number also needs to be different)?

So my wife's membership expired in June, I haven't been on for years, I refuse to be a second member. I got this with no issues at all. I take we can keep going back and forth with my wife and my name?as long as we don't add each other as a 2nd member?

same time when you purchase the membership.
Here is the wording: Your Costco membership has been activated and is ready to use online immediately.
