Community Reviews

This Instacart gift card deal is mainly useful for paying for Costco or Instacart grocery delivery, but the real value depends heavily on region and checkout path. In some areas, Costco Same Day and Instacart prices are nearly identical, while California and Los Angeles examples show much higher Instacart markups and extra service or regulatory fees. The biggest caveat is that Costco Same Day redemption has been inconsistent, with reports that new cards cannot always be added even though existing credits still work. A workable option is to start from Instacart, select Costco, and use the credits there.

Did you add your Costco membership info to Instacart app? I placed an order yesterday and the prices on Instacart Costco were same as Costco Same Day. The only difference for me was an additional service fee of $4.5 (on an order of $160) on the Instacart app which was not there on Costco Same Day. Just FYI, I have Instacart+ membership added to both Instacart and Costco Same Day
https://ibb.co/tPwpMFbrYes as you can see the top of image membership has been applied - but instead of $8.97 from the Costco app, the same storage bin cost $9.94 on Instacart. I'm in California.

It probably varies from state yo state or one area to another. I usually order from Costco Same Day as I did not want to pay the service fee that the Instacart app charges. But yesterday when I couldn't add the instacart gift card to Costco Same Day, I ended up ordering directly from Instacart. So was specifically comparing the prices of items and saw no difference between the two here in Baltimore area. Again probably varies depending on where you live

In my experience it's usually the same price for most items, but rarely I would notice a price discrepancy on certain items

$1000? You are lucky! I have about $5500 that I stashed for the entire year. I have no idea what to do with that.
I can buy the $1000 and $5500 gift card for 20% off.

My local Aldi's allows pick ups on $35+ orders without fees (with Instacart+). I assume there're other stores that allow that, depending on the area. Markup is ~10%, but I assume you got those GCs with at least a 10% discount, so should be at least breaking even on the purchase + saving some time.

Where did you get this information? You can still add an Instacart gift card In the payment section of sameday.costco when checking out. And the Instacart credits I already have on my Costco account have been applied to my order.
Quote from bwsmom View quoted comment :
They'll need to update the info on their current $10 off promo (WINTERSAMEDAY26), since it specifically says:

Can I use an Instacart gift card with this promotion?
Yes. At checkout, click 'add promo code or Instacart gift card' and enter WINTERSAMEDAY2026. Close out detail box.
Click back into 'add promo code or Instacart gift card' then enter your Instacart gift card code to add the funds to your account.
To apply Instacart Gift Card funds to your order, expand the payment (Pay with) Section at checkout and select 'Use Instacart credits'.

I had the exact same experience as you when I was trying to place an order this past Saturday. I can use the existing credits on Costco Same Day app but unable to add a new gift card. I ended up placing an order directly from Instacart app and the only difference was instacart app had an additional $4.5 service fee on an order of $160. All the product prices were same as Costco same day
Thanks for the warning. I almost bought this gift card. Sucks Costco or instacart did this...

A couple times I checked, the Sameday.costco directly is often a bit cheaper than costco via instacart.

They secretly remove the option without any public announcement. Now I'm stuck with $1000 worth Instacart gc, and the only way to spend them is on Instacart app with insanely high mark up.
I compared costco sameday vs instacart few years ago and they all had 10% mark up on everything. Did something change?

I was able to order 2 total $200 gift cards on separate orders/transactions with no problem. Worth trying.

I paused for about 5m between transactions.

https://imgur.com/a/9LZt3f5 for $1000 a normal costumer service rep will be able to refund you and invalidate the codes , but for $5500 you may have to escalate to a higher up. But luckily amazon has A-Z guarantee and just explain at the time you bough them they were advertised redeemable at Costcosameday.
is the "yesterday" timestamp accurate or was this an older pic? And when did you buy the gift cards (sorry if you said in another comment)

I've some gift cards on my instacart that were supposed to be from Costco that I haven't used cause instacart wont allow me to use them at Costco...
