Chinatown posted:lol if u dont have your Costco card on you at all times.  My Costco card trades places with my Subway points card on the regular. The two just keep flipping back and forth in the left front pocket of my wallet. I mean, what if you need gas or a dog or something ASAP?

Relevant Tangent posted:Executive memberships are for people who are poo poo at math, sorry friend. Just get the credit card, it's a far superior option. Hmm: Business membership - $60 (new price) - No cash back Executive Membership - $120 (new price) - 2% cash back Spend $3000 / year at Costco * 2% = $60 $3000 / 52 weeks in a year = $57.70 per week to spend to get to $60 back. After that, all cash back is profit towards totally free membership. Hit $6000 for the year (Not hard to do if you buy a few major purchases), then free membership. Plus the other perks of Executive. Of course being a lonely goon that's a lot of Doritos and Coke.

When I signed up the other week, they told me if the cash back check for my Executive Membership wasn't at least $55, bring it in and they'll make up the difference. Signed up for that and the credit card and making a sweet 4% total cash back on all my Costco purchases.

So I'm disappointed that I'm not getting any feedback on that Kimmel video I posted. Costco is LITERALLY SAVING KID'S LIVES. Rejoice fuckers.

I signed up for executive about a year ago, waiting for that cash back. I bought a TV and a laptop this year though, those aren't normal purchases. We will see if it pays off next year. Costco Cost-Pro Tip: The Costco Credit Card works as your membership card. No need to carry around two cards.

Guys GUYS I just found out that you can use the Costco Citi Visa card AS YOUR MEMBERSHIP CARD Flash it on the way in. Use it to pay at checkout. No need for a separate card. It has your photo and your membership number on the back, so it is valid Costco ID. AS IF THIS CARD COULDN'T GET ANY BETTER

Nope, the Costco Visa works as a membership card at the pumps too. Just one swipe covers the membership and credit part. Just tap on Use Costco Visa for your purchase.

A company that offers quality stuff at good prices that pays and treats its employees well is such a rare loving thing that I'm okay with a little corporate worship.

One time membership fee of $110, if your 2% cash back for the year doesn't cover your renewal fee then Costco bridges the gap at their own expense. Executive membership is for winners

I used to bang the Winco heiress back in college, which was cool for awhile. she used to casually buy me expensive poo poo like laptops and bikes. but fear not, for now my only true love is a big ol dog and 20oz soda for a buck goddamn fiddy.

On one of the visits, they bought 30,000 dollars worth of stuff and left it at my boss's house just to show off that they could. My boss came from Argentina with 56 dollars in his pocket and founded a very successful machine shop so he was a totally self-made man. He hated his nephew with a passion... The Kirkland chick was my age, and due to the fact that she was on a whole different plane of societal existence, she always seemed down to clown. I oft fantasized of stealing her away from douche-nephew and filling her full of ugly red headed babies.

The whole showing the card at the door thing is pretty genius IMHO. 1. Makes sure that you HAVE your card and don't gently caress yourself at Checkout and prevent people with no membership from buying things. 2. Makes you feel like you're part of an exclusive club. WHICH IT IS.  Costco is all knowing.

Spoondick posted:you can also use the pharmacy, get eye exams or prescription glasses and in california at least buy alcohol without a membership Interesting, never tried that before but it makes sense, hot food, pharmacy, optometry, all of those require separate licenses and so does alcohol in most states. Odds are it's a kind of situation where you can't get the license without being willing to serve any legal customer.

I heard it goes back to some kind of laws about speakeasies and prohibition. Like there can't be any alcohol consumption clubs or some such nonsense.
