I bought the $60 Costco membership through the link above on my Chase Ink Business Plus card and it coded as 5x purchase for category office & shipping - "DCG ONE FOR COSTCO, Aug 04, 2020,$60.00, 5x 300 pts." It also instantly triggered the Dosh $20 bonus.
Hi does anyone know if I cancel my membership and wife applies for a new one, if I need to return any items bought under my old membership, is that allowed or you need to maintain membership in order to return? Thanks!
Non-members need a receipt and members don't. That's all it takes.
The UPS deal mentions that people who have not been members for at least 18 months would qualify, but this deal mentions "not valid towards the renewal of an expired membership" without any reference to the 18 months period. Is that still the case that someone who cancelled their membership over 18 months ago would qualify?
Forget Costco. They require a mask, which does not prevent covid but does constrict the flow of oxygen and becomes a bacterial swamp.
Masks don't prevent but do in fact greatly help reduce the spread of Covid and other viruses. Whether you FOX News koolaide drinkers wish to accept it or not.
Of course if their mask policy keeps right wing loons out of the store, all the better.
Please direct me to the scientific evidence that masks "greatly help reduce the spread of Covid".
Not only that, but please also point me to scientific evidence that you wearing a mask won't protect you from me that isn't wearing a mask.
If you're wearing a mask then it should block any particles from EVERYONE that are headed your way. Me wearing a mask only protects you from my breath/sneeze/cough.
No one is saying that you can't wear any sort of mask you want to make yourself feel safer. Heck, wear a helmet with a face shield if that makes you feel better.
"Me wearing a mask only protects you from my breath/sneeze/cough."
Yep, and breath/sneeze/cough is the primary way the virus is spread. Even by people who have the virus but aren't displaying symptoms. So, basically if everyone is wearing a mask then everyone protected from everyone else. Far moreso than if no masks were worn.
Please direct me to the scientific study that definitively proves that masks “greatly help reduce the spread of Covid”.
LOL watch the news, sparky. All your fellow anti-maskers in science denying conservative states are now suffering much worse under the expected second wave. And now most states are making masks mandatory.

does Costco sell visa or other gift cards? I've only had a sams membership and need to know if it's worth switching. thanks.
If I have a membership and my wife is an authorized user, can she sign up for an account and then make me an authorized user? I have done this successfully with Sam’s.
I want to try this as well. My wife is currently the primary member and I am the secondary/household member. I want to know if I can become the primary member and my wife the secondary/household member if I purchase this deal. I don't want to be out $30 if I'm ineligible.
Stackable with Dosh $10 cashback?

GC Galore said Dosh tracked along with a couple of other portals/stacks. Whether they’ll pay out or not is YMMV.

The UPS My Choice deal can work for anyone too - you just need a free UPS My Choice account.
Is there a reason we can’t post the direct link from costcomembershipoffer.com? Seems like a generic link.

Hmm you're right. But there's a chance they may not work because they're missing the referrer etc.
