Beyond groceries, Costco often slashes prices on games, TVs, laptops, and other popular electronics.

Wholesale retail chain Costco isn't just a great place to buy groceries in bulk; you can also regularly get great deals on video games, laptops, TVs, and other noteworthy tech and entertainment products. Most of the best deals in these categories are only for Costco members, but the membership more than pays for itself, especially if you regularly shop at your local Costco store. Costco Gold memberships cost $60 per year, which is a pretty solid bargain already. An ongoing promotion sweetens the pot by giving new members a $30 Digital Costco Shop Card when you sign up .

This Costco promotion comes with a few caveats. You’ll want to read the lengthy fine print, but the main takeaway is that only new members are eligible for the gift card promotion. But if you’ve never been part of the Costco family, you’d be hard-pressed to find a better time to join. An annual Gold Membership typically costs $60, but with a $30 digital gift card, this essentially cuts that to just $30.

Beyond price cuts and member-only sales, you’ll also gain access to Costco gas stations, the Costco Travel center for discounted vacations, Costco Optical, Costco Pharmacy, and several other auxiliary perks. And as mentioned above, Costco frequently slashes prices on games or hosts exclusive deals for hot new tech and electronics.
