What Is Costco Direct And How To Use It To Your Advantage

Who doesn't love shopping at Costco? While there are some home items you should never buy at Costco, you can find pretty much anything you need at this one-stop shop, including food essentials, clothing, and even appliances. While shoppers can snag many solid deals just by being a Costco member, true enthusiasts know about Costco Direct and how to save big bucks. Costco Direct is a way for shoppers to save money during their online shopping by buying multiple eligible purchases together in one transaction.

Take some time to learn everything you need to know about Costco's home products and how you can take advantage of the Costco Direct benefits. This is an online-only program where the more items you buy, the higher the savings. If you buy two eligible items, you save $100. Buy three eligible items, and you will save $200. The savings grow from there — buying four eligible items saves you $300, and purchasing five or more eligible items saves a total of $400.

Online items that this promotion applies to have a red "Costco Direct" label, or you can find them directly by searching the term "Costco Direct." It's worth noting that these discounts can be combined with other member savings and perks, like the 2% rewards that executive members receive on purchases. Product categories include appliances, TVs, furniture, home upgrades, mattresses, patio, and fitness, with a total of over 1,200 products to choose from, some of which might just be the best Costco home products hacks that will change how you DIY.

The finer points

Costco members should know a few essential points about the Costco Direct program before clicking the "checkout" button. Any Costco member of gold star membership status and above can benefit from this program; however, each membership card is limited to two Costco Direct redemptions, so it's best to jump on the deals with some strategy. Because the discount will only apply if everything is on the same transaction, all items ordered must be shipped to the same address.

What's really nice about this program is that shoppers aren't limited to one category. They can stack eligible items from multiple categories, meaning you can buy the workbench of your dreams and pair it with a brand-new television. Delivery is expected within three to five days in most areas, meaning you can quickly enjoy your new purchases without waiting extreme lengths of time. And, since offers are constantly changing and evolving, you'll surely find the best deal for the items you want while combining other eligible savings.
