Reason I ask is that my current Costco roadside assistance expires in April, and I would be ideal if I could buy the kit now, but hang onto the roadside and Gold coupon and only activate it in April.

Thanks,
edyee
No idea... call 1-888-727-7478 and ask.

bought kit and activated Gold with no problem, Kit plus + $56.77 for a 1-yr Gold membership... free oil coupon and $20 oil change will come in the mail in a bout 2-3 weeks.
you need the receipt as they there is a special number on it that you have to give when activating.
if the Kit is not on sale at your store just go to the CS and ask them to check the price at other CT stores to see if it's on sale elsewhere.

just talked to a CanadianTire rep about renewing mine and when I asked about the discount, she said that they wont know till 2 days before the black friday flyer. Said is a good time to call in then. Before they used to just match your last years price if you hadnt had any tows but looks like they are tightening the belt now. Their Gold plan is awesome btw if you are in or around GTA.

CT's incompetent staff isn't going anywhere near my vehicle.
Obviously you will be towed to CT. Waiting for the CT destroyed my car threads after the first snow fall.
Gold Plan members are entitled to five (5) Service
Calls per vehicle registered for every twelve (12)
months period. Limit of one (1) tow per Service
Call.
Registration is not transferable from one
registered vehicle to another.
Unlimited tows to CT folks! Hot deal. Bought 10.
An unlimited number of tows to any Canadian Tire
Service Centre are provided within the distance
limits established in the Plan selected. If you
choose to be towed to a Canadian Tire Service
Centre, the tow does not count against the limit of
Service Calls established in the Plan selected. This
service is limited to one (1) tow per call.

saw this deal last year and signed up but i won't be renewing this yr. Had to get my car towed twice last year. each time had to wait for about 2 hours before someone can come. both time was in the summer, one was around 6am and the other time was around 1pm. they are slower than CAA from my experience.

FYI, just called to cancel the auto-renewal on my account. Stated the upcoming promo as the reason. Response: you can keep the auto-renewal in place, then call back when the promo is published and get refunded for the difference. Bonus: if they don't have the promo come out for Black Friday, or the discount is lower than acceptable to me (e.g. they change it to 20%), I can also cancel the membership and get a full refund.

This works well for me because it's zero risk, and means I don't lose coverage for the next 10 days. Worth making the call if you're in the same boat.

It is not gold, not even Silver . Only 2 Service calls are included and they drop your car at CT. I might return the kit and get a refund.

Return the kit and wait for Gold 50%. RFD teaches patience. I'm waiting for 3rd November renewal at 1/2 price. I never auto renew.

I called CT (1-888-727-7478) just one minute ago to confirm whether I'm not in auto-renew mode. The agent clearly told me that I'm not and 50% discount will start from November 22nd! However, he couldn't apply this discount to my account today although mine will be expired on November 20th. I have to call it back on/after 22nd.

That's great info, thanks.

While we're all waiting, can someone tell me for sure--how does the actual CT Roadside Assistance membership card work? Obviously you need to show your card to receive your member discounts...I only received one card last year though. Since the membership is "by vehicle" rather than "by person", should my wife (who also drives the vehicle) be able to receive a membership card too?

Yes, your wife can use it. Please remember to leave your CT card into your car. My wife left her car key inside and locked herself outside vehicle - she was able to call CT for opening my car.

How long does it take before you can use it for a 10km+ tow?
