One of the most popular warehouse clubs, Costco has approximately 129.5 million cardholders and was ranked third in the National Retail Federation’s top 100 Retailers. And thanks to a new deal, you could save up to $45 on a one-year membership.
Gold Star and Business memberships cost $65 annually, while an Executive membership costs $130 annually. The cost represents a recent price increase from $60 and $120, that went into effect September 1, 2024, when Costco raised membership fees for the first time since 2017. If you're interested in becoming a member, but the cost has been holding you back, this deal can help you save $45.
Costco offers competitive prices on any kind of product you can imagine — furniture, food, clothing, etc. — and constantly has special deals and discounts to help you save even more. However, there is one barrier to shopping at Costco, and that's its membership fee. To shop at a Costco warehouse, as well as to score the best online prices, you’ll need to be a member.
How to save on a Costco membership
Here are all the details. Stack Social's deal can save you money on a one-year Costco membership in the form of a digital gift card reward. With this deal, there are two options to choose from.
Gold Star Membership + $45 Digital Shop Card: The first deal Stack Social offers is a discount on a Gold Star Costco membership. How it works is you'll buy a Gold Star membership for $65, and then receive a $45 digital Costco Shop Card by email within 2 weeks of your purchase, effectively bringing the price of a membership to just $20 a year.
With a Gold Star membership, you'll be able to shop at all Costco warehouses and online at Costco.com, receive a membership card for both you and a family member, and enjoy a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee, meaning you can return products you don't want for a full refund.
Executive Gold Star Membership + $45 Shop Card: The second deal is on an Executive Gold Star Costco membership. You'll pay $130 for an Executive membership, and then receive a $45 gift card by email, effectively bringing the price of an annual membership to just $85.
With Costco's highest level of membership, you'll enjoy all the benefits of Gold Star members, plus more. You'll earn an annual 2% reward (up to $1,250) on eligible Costco and Costco Travel purchases, as well as benefit from additional perks and discounts on many Costco services.
