Maybe it's a location discretion. Maybe they do allow finishing up the difference, but they sure won't allow any other items afterward once the card is finished.Medicine1T4 wrote: ↑can someone confirm that non members cannot pay the difference with their own debit card/cash once the cash card is used up, because i heard otherwise

The thought that you can just bypass the whole membership process via the gift card backdoor baffles me. It's quintessential RFD in that the whole juggling process is more hassle than it's worth.

Some mailed coupon items are restricted to members, and the cashier may enforce it. If the deductions are automatic (most in store coupons), everyone gets it.

The only real catch (if shopping alone-no friend to buy another card) is that you can not buy anything else once the card is empty.
They don't even let you pay the difference if you are simply finishing off the card (ie $3 remaining for a $5.99 item)
You have to hope and pray that you can find something that you actually want for $3.
(at which point they have you, maybe-in hopes that you will put that $3 towards an actual membership.)
What does this mean? I have 5$ left in my card, If i buy a 10$ item, and more purchases to go buy, they won't let me buy the rest? They dont scan your card till the end, so not sure how they would enforce that. Though once the card is 0 after the final last tranaction, you cant refill the cardplaynicee1 wrote: ↑Maybe it's a location discretion.

Still like that, sale prices are for members only.

A few years ago, I went to Costco 2-3 times a years, and used a cash card each time. For people that don't go there often, the cash card makes sense.

As long as the card has a balance, you can use it to initiate a purchase. Once it's empty, you're SOL.

The card is permanently empty once it is empty. You are not allowed to add cash to it unless you are a member. (even then, you may be required to buy a whole new card...?)dilligafeh wrote: ↑No, just NSF.
