1st time long time been gardening for 1.5yr was shooting for 2 yrs but, stuff happens. New Costco opened up about 15 miles from me so I said "lets make brie". Kinda hard to pass up their Citi and Costco membership benefits and cash back offers so the journey began. If you're in the market defeinitely consider CitiBank's Costco Anywhere Visa + the Costco Executive Membership, the card pays itself depending on your use of the card online, at the store, and gas. They give you a check before renewal which most use it towards renewal time - not a bad deal. Also, keep in mind, if you apply online you have to wait for the card 7-10 days. Compared to in-store, they will give you an immmediate printed temp card to use AND they can charge your membership to the new card.
In-store application and In order.
- Approved $10,400 (odd SL but will wait for card to request CLI).
- APR 25.49%
- Hard pull from Experian 738
- Temporary card printed with immediate use of $6,300.
- After approval, had the rep charge my new temporary Citi Costcol annual membership (Executive Membership $130).
Congrats on the new card! I started w/the same SL: please let us know how your request for a CLI goes.
Liking the 5% credit for gas; Discover has a promo going w/5% cash back on gas right now. Hmmm
@Namaste7 wrote:@FLLGuy Congrats on the approval. I recently upgraded to Executive membership along with the Visa.
If you use Instacart, the Costco membership offers a $20 discount the Instacart membership fee. The Executive Membership years a $10 monthly credit to use on orders of $150 through Costco Same Day or Costco via Instacart.
Also, Costco purchases greater than $75.00 can be paid over three statements without a plan fee. That can be a nice benefit for some.
- thank you for that @Namaste7 I'm still trying to get acclimated with the card.
- Today I got new glasses and 2nd pair for discounted prices (OMG! - my regular eye glass place has been ripping me off, Costco is WAY Cheaper!)
