Costco Membership Deal

HOT Costco Membership Deal

Groupon is currently offering a deal to get a FREE $10 Costco gift card when you purchase a Costco Gold Star membership, enroll in auto-renewal, and use code CJPROMO at checkout.

Here’s how to get this deal:

  1. Go here to sign up.
  2. Select the Gold Star Membership for $60.
  3. Fill out your information.
  4. Make sure to use coupon code CJPROMO on the payment screen. (If you don’t enter this code, you won’t receive the bonus gift card. You’ll see a $0.01 deduction on your membership cost after promo code is entered, which indicates your promo code has been successfully added.)
  5. Make sure you’re enrolled in auto-renewal of your membership. (If you don’t elect this, you won’t receive the bonus gift card.)
  6. Complete your purchase. You’ll receive two membership cards — one for the primary cardholder as well as one free household card.
  7. The gift card will be emailed to your email address within 2 weeks of sign-up!

Valid for new members for their first year of membership or expired memberships of over 18 months. Not valid for renewal or upgrade of existing membership. Limit 1 promotion per household.

    I just did this and now my sister wants to do it too for her household. Will this promo of $40 cash card still be here next week? She has to wait bout a week. Thanks in advance!

      Unfortunately we can’t be sure when the Groupon will expire. Sorry we couldn’t be more help! -Jordan, MSM Team

  3. Melissa says

    I paid for the Groupon and now Costco wants my credit card information to charge me $60 again?

    • Meg says

      No. Once you buy the voucher, you’ll receive your member # and pin. You’ll enter that during the Costco checkout and it will automatically deduct the $60 charge — so you won’t have to pay anything during Costco checkout. I hope that helps! -Meg, MSM Team

    • Meg says

      No, you’ll just buy the voucher through Groupon. And then look under “my Groupons” for the voucher and there will be instructions on how to redeem it. Hope that helps! -Meg, MSM Team

    Interesting comments but I still don’t see why Costco is better than Sam’s. Sam’s runs the new customer deal every year, usually found on Groupon. Is Costco cheaper, are there other advantages?

    • Meg says

      It honestly just depends on your preferences! Sam’s and Costco carry very different types of products. I personally love Costco more because I find that they have a lot of specialty food items for special diets (I’m a vegetarian and eat a lot of organic products), great produce prices, and amazing foods for entertaining! But other people love Sam’s Club more. I suggest going to each with a friend who already has a membership and deciding which one you like better. Of course, distance to your house matters, too! Hope that helps. -Meg, MSM Team

    I bought this deal last week. I got my card from Costco but didn’t get any of the coupons. They gave me a bag so I thought the coupons & cash card were in there but it was just Costco information and their ad. Are the freebies sent later?

    • Jordan says

      In the deal’s fine print it says that coupons and gift card will be mailed with in 4-6 weeks of activation. Sorry for the confusion! It can be difficult to find that information sometimes. Hope that helps! -Jordan, MSM Team

  12. Doreen Sevestrean says

    I was in to get my costco membership today and my local VA costco has a second deal going for all the folks coming in with groupon. If you upgrade your membership and get a Costco credit card you get a $60 cashback card. I didnt do it because I dont need the upgrade but I thought I would share this just in case others could benefit by it.

  13. Wendy says

    If my husband has the account and it expired a few months ago, I was also added to the account, so does that not allow me to get this groupon deal?

  14. Linda Martin says

    Can I go to the store in Barrie Ontario Canada in person and sign up for a card and get the deal that is being offered at this time?

    • Jordan says

      I am not sure since this is a Groupon deal. I would think that because it is a deal through a third party that you have to sign up through them. Your best bet would be to call your store and ask a customer service rep. Hope that helps! -Jordan, MSM Team

  15. Morgan says

    Question! My membership expired in Feb 2019. Can I use this? The wording is a bit confusing on existing membership/renewal.

  16. Sarah Boys says

    Can you get all the coupons and then just cancel the auto renew? Has anyone tried this? I want the deal but do not want auto renew. Thanks!

    • Jordan says

      With services that require you to select auto-renew, you can typically cancel before the auto-renew takes place. Hope that helps! -Jordan, MSM Team

    I had been debating on renewing my Sam’s membership or trying Costco…this answered my dilemma! Thanks for sharing! ?
