Taking to Facebook, he said: “If you love Costco, then you’re going to want to hear this info. Costco has some great perks that come with your membership that you may not even realize.”
For those planning to get away this summer, he recommended checking out Costco Travel to save cash on flights, car rentals, and hotels.
He said: “I have never found a cheaper rental car company.”
He continued: “You don’t have to pay until you get to the counter, and you can cancel at any time.”
The bargain hunter was also a big fan of buying pet medication from Costco to save cash.
He revealed that the medication tends to be cheaper and you can ask your vet to send the prescription to the store to secure the best deal.
You also don’t want to sleep on the Costco Shutterfly discount that comes with your membership.
For those wanting to print photos or make a scrapbook, Costco members get 51% off as well as free shipping on orders over $30.
You can also get car repairs for a cheaper price, according to the savvy shopper.
He explained: “Costco has contracts with local dealerships and repair shops in every community.
“If you go through them for a prior authorization, you get 15% off at the dealer.”
Last but not least, he recommended taking advantage of Costco Next.
This allows you to get direct savings through companies.
“An example would be Dell. If you’re in the market for a Dell computer or any accessories, it’s best to go through Costco Next to get a discount,” he added.
The Facebook clip was a hit with viewers and many thanked him for his money-saving tips.
One person wrote: “Good stuff.”
Another commented: “Thank you!”
“Great info,” penned a third.
