In fact, it turns out that deals on pantry staples, paper goods, and electronics are just the beginning\u2014deft members can leverage their yearly investments for savings and services in unforeseen places. Let\u2019s explore what you can do with a Costco card.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"547\" height=\"410\" src=\"https:\/\/rebatekey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/shutterstock_1501959374-1-547x410.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2864\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rebatekey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/shutterstock_1501959374-1-547x410.jpg 547w, https:\/\/rebatekey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/shutterstock_1501959374-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/rebatekey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/shutterstock_1501959374-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rebatekey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/shutterstock_1501959374-1-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/rebatekey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/shutterstock_1501959374-1-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/rebatekey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/shutterstock_1501959374-1-scaled.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 547px) 100vw, 547px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Overview_of_Memberships\"><\/span>Overview of Memberships<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What advantages can you look forward to as a member of the hulking, bulk-goods paradise? That might depend on your membership level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While each type of Costco wholesale club membership acts as a wristband granting you entry into the exclusive shopping club, the benefits vary based on your initial cover charge.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, <a href=\"https:\/\/rebatekey.com\/blog\/how-much-is-a-costco-membership\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">how much is a Costco membership<\/a>? Here\u2019s a breakdown of the different tiers of Costco memberships:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Gold Star <\/strong>\u2013 The standard Costco gold star membership costs $60 per year and comes with a second Costco member card to share with another adult member of your household.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Gold Star Business<\/strong> \u2013 Like the Gold Star member program, the business membership program costs $60 per year. These memberships offer the purchase of goods for resale and require additional proof of business ownership.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Gold Star Executive<\/strong> \u2013 This is the highest tier of membership, costing $120 per year and offering 2% rewards on purchases up to $1000 along with exclusive access to Costco executive benefits, including additional returns on travel and auto.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, Executive memberships might get you bottle service, but standard Gold Star memberships will still get you on the dancefloor.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And sometimes that\u2019s enough\u2014while Gold Star Executives, along with Costco purchase discounts, can count on additions like roadside assistance and lower pricing on check printing and identity protection, members at all levels can enjoy some of the most compelling Costco store perks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Best_Perks_for_Costco_Members\"><\/span>The Best Perks for Costco Members<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now that we\u2019ve explored the different kinds of <a href=\"https:\/\/rebatekey.com\/blog\/the-best-costco-membership-deals\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Costco membership deals<\/a>, it\u2019s time to dive deep into the top seven benefits they offer, which\u2014like their world-famous hot dogs\u2014are unexpected, serviceable, and ultimately praiseworthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_hop_Anywhere\"><\/span>#1 hop Anywhere<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With nearly 700 warehouses in North America alone and more on the way, Costco\u2019s expansive brick-and-mortar presence makes it a convenient choice for savvy shoppers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because all of Costco\u2019s memberships grant access to any one of their warehouses, members can enjoy savings and services even when they\u2019re far away from their go-to store. After all, you might need to stock your vacation rental with Kirkland brand vodka.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_See_the_World\"><\/span>#2 See the World<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You knew that you could purchase a 64-ounce bottle of sunscreen at your local Costco. But what about the tropical vacation?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Costco members have access to Costco Travel: an exclusive program that negotiates travel markets and brings savings on flights, hotels, and cruises to Gold Star and Costco Executive member card holders with a yen to dust off their roller bags.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Planning a road trip? Costco Travel makes finding low rates on rental cars a breeze with easy comparison shopping and even lets you add an additional driver for free (something that can set you back almost $15 a day at other major rental companies).<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Invest_in_Eye_and_Ear_Health\"><\/span>#3 Invest in Eye and Ear Health<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No, that\u2019s not your eyes. The shopping carts really <em>are<\/em> that big. But while you\u2019re at Costco, why not check your vision and your hearing too? Costco members earn discounted visits to in-store eye clinics and savings on glasses and contacts through Costco Optical\u2014whether or not they have vision insurance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Members can also take advantage of Costco\u2019s Hearing Aid Centers which offer free exams (yes, you heard that right) as well as complimentary follow-up visits and cleanings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Find_Deals_on_Four-Wheels\"><\/span>#4 Find Deals on Four-Wheels<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Available to Costco members only, the Costco Auto Program partners with more than 3000 auto dealers to innovate the experience of shopping for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>New and pre-owned vehicles<\/li><li>Auto parts<\/li><li>Car servicing<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Think low prices and seamless transactions for the Costco shopper, not sleazy sales pitches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And once you score your car, you can fuel up at a Costco location gas station. The Top-Tier Kirkland gas on tap is inexpensive despite its promise of boosting fuel economy and mitigating tailpipe pollution.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Save_Money_on_Money_Really\"><\/span>#5 Save Money on Money. Really.&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It may sound outlandish, but among the many benefits of Costco memberships, one of our favorites is the opportunity to buy sums of money for less\u2014in the form of gift cards, that is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Costco members can stay flush with discounted prices on a variety of gift card options for movie theaters, restaurants, theme parks, and more. If you\u2019re anything like us, extra savings = extra popcorn.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Protect_Your_Tech\"><\/span>#6 Protect Your Tech&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It happens to everyone. You take your smartphone out of its case <em>one time<\/em> and lo and behold, you\u2019re staring at a shattered screen.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Crisis averted\u2014for Costco membership card holders, that is\u2014thanks to Costco Concierge Services\u2019 free technical support and best-in-class warranties: two-year extended warranty on all eligible products and a whopping three-year warranty on the iPhone 8 (that\u2019s an extra year on top of what\u2019s provided by the manufacturer).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Fill_Prescriptions_with_Ease\"><\/span>#7 Fill Prescriptions with Ease<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Costco members can defray pricey prescription costs for themselves and their pets. Gold Star membership and Gold Star Executive membership holders who avail themselves of the Member Prescription Program can save up to 40% on their prescriptions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Costco pharmacy also offers competitive pricing on frequently used (and often expensive) pet meds so members can keep their four-legged BFFs healthy and happy.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"410\" height=\"410\" src=\"https:\/\/rebatekey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/featured-image-2-1-410x410.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2865\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rebatekey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/featured-image-2-1-410x410.jpg 410w, https:\/\/rebatekey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/featured-image-2-1-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/rebatekey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/featured-image-2-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/rebatekey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/featured-image-2-1-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rebatekey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/featured-image-2-1-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/rebatekey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/featured-image-2-1-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/rebatekey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/featured-image-2-1.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 410px) 100vw, 410px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Still_Not_Ready_to_Fork_Over_the_Annual_Membership_Fee_Try_RebateKey\"><\/span>Still Not Ready to Fork Over the Annual Membership Fee? Try RebateKey.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The benefits of Costco membership go way beyond access to 36-roll packs of toilet paper (but that comes in handy, too).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By easing travel planning, providing tech assistance, and somehow finding a way to make shopping for a car a bearable experience, Costco ensures that its members feel taken care of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the new membership cost can set shoppers back at least $60.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want the best deals from Costco, you have to be willing to pony up and pay the annual fee. However, if you\u2019d like to start saving for free, we\u2019ve got you covered.
