Groupon is offering a bonus $40 Costco Digital Shop Card deal on new annual Costco memberships (costs $60) by 12/31/23. This offer is available to those who have not yet had Costco membership or their membership expired 18+ months ago (not member renewals). Costco almost never offers membership discount promotions or deals like this – so this is an excellent offer if you’re eligible. I have seen similar $30 Shop Card bonus offers for limited periods of time in the past on Groupon, but a $40 bonus beats that. Read on for full details on eligibility and where to get this Costco membership deal offer.

With this offer, you’d be buying a standard Costco “Gold Star” membership for the regular rate of $60/year and would get the $40 Costco Digital Shop Card as a bonus. The Costco Digital Shop Card (basically a gift card) is valid as a form of payment at Costco locations and Costco.com (excluding Costco gas stations, food court kiosks, and car washes). Members can later optionally upgrade to an “Executive” Costco membership for an additional $60/year ($120 total) at Costco, if they’d like.
I’ve been a Costco member for close to 2 decades now and have found excellent value in my membership. There are ways to shop at Costco without a membership, but it’s probably not worth the hassle. Costco’s gas prices (typically 10% lower than elsewhere) alone are worth the cost of membership, and there are a lot of great value from their high-quality store-brand products, including Kirkland Signature alcohol and Kirkland Signature dog and cat food – among others. And, if you’re not happy with your membership – you can get a Costco membership fee refund at any time.
For some of the reasons mentioned above, I tend to prefer Costco versus Sam’s Club. If you’re more of a Sam’s Club person, I’ll also highlight any Sam’s Club membership offers and BJ’s Wholesale Club offers that come up as well.
