Our Verdict

Nifty deal to offset $45 of the $60 Costco membership cost. I don’t think you actually have to click through Groupon to get this deal, Groupon is just the best landing page we found with the deal.

You might be able to get $4 back from BeFrugal by clicking through there before purchase.  I’m not sure if the $20 Dosh cashback will work (if you use a Dosh-connected card), since they deduct $.01 from the Costco membership when using the promo code which might be meant to mess up Dosh and portals from tracking.

I signed up for this on Nov 4 and still not got it and get the runaround every time I call Costco

I call and they say it will come in a couple of days, it doesnt, then i have to call (and be on hold) again and have to start all over again with a new agent

Last time they said the .01 was not taken off my credit card (their fault) but that was fixed and now I call today and they say another two weeks.

Anyone else have this issue?

I was able to get my Costco card today at the store, it required a photo for their records, Easy peasy using the $45 gift card too. Thanks for posting this great deal!

Do you know when this offer expires? I ask because we can’t go in person, like you did, until AFTER Thanks Giving. I would prefer to go in person asnthe e-mail option seems to get lost… Thanks!

My dad who lives with me signed up for this. He’s never been a member and never been on my membership either. Costco said he’s ineligible because he lives with me, and I’m a member. The terms don’t state this at all, but Costco refuses to listen.

Currently Groupon is showing executive membership ($120) + $45 shop card, same promo code. Is there anything that makes the higher tier membership worth it for an infrequent shopper? Gas would probably regular expense.

I always do the higher tier. You get 2% back on everything (gas doesn’t count). If you don’t hit $60 back for the year (difference between regular and executive membership), they will give you the difference back. Requires going in and talking to customer service, but might not be worth it if that’s too much of a hassle and you know you for sure wouldn’t get close to spending $3k there each year.
I also like it as it’s extra $ to spend toward CC SUB without any risk involved.

I got the eGC. Would have been lost it if i didn’t check the comments today. Sometimes I don’t check emails in promotional tab for days.

Got the $45 digital card. Went to the “promotions” folder on my gmail account so if you haven’t gotten yours maybe check there if using gmail.
