Here is another great way for you to save money. You can purchase gift cards at a discounted rate from Costco online. If you know you’re already going to be spending the money you might as well save and buy a discounted gift card. All you have to do is visit the Costco website.
Do you Have to be a Costco Member?
- No, you don’t have to be a member but you will pay a 5% surcharge. But even with the surcharge you will be saving money.
WOTC Pro Tip: Anyone can shop Costco.com although there are a few hitches for nonmembers:
- You will pay an extra 5% surcharge but usually, you still get a deal.
- You can not use it for “Member-Only” Savings” deals.
- If you spend less than $1,200 a year at Costco online it’s not worth purchasing a membership (you will just pay the 5% surcharge) but if you plan on spending more than $1,200 a year online it will save you money by going ahead a purchasing a membership.
This tip can help you save money for yourself and is a great way to save money on gifts. Most of the gift cards come in smaller increments. For example, you can purchase (4) $15 gift cards to Krispy Kreme for $44.99 instead of paying the full $60. Everyone likes donuts.
