Carnivals, News, and Costco - Aug 15, 2008
Costco
This week I renewed my Costco Membership. As I have a hard time paying full price for anything, I found the latest online coupon code (GSWEB24) for a $25 gift card with a new Costco membership. The great thing about getting the membership online is that you can get the discount AND start shopping right away by simply printing the email receipt and bringing it to the warehouse. As far as I know, this coupon applies to Canadian Costco’s only!

Thanks for the link on the Costco gift card! One of those little things I’ve started doing over the last year or so is, whenever I order anything on-line, Googling for promotion codes or coupon codes. It’s amazing how fast the savings add up.
