Our Verdict
Excellent deal. The $45 gift card alone offsets most of the purchase, and a lot of people will get value from the $40 online discount as well. This might be the best deal we’ve seen on Costco membership. You can also try to get a couple of dollars back from the portal on the Groupon purchase.
