Time check: The holidays are basically here, ready or not. But before the panic sets in, we can help with two simple words: Costco membership. Yes, there are entire songs about the hustle of the holiday season, but something as simple as joining Costco might be all you need to keep your season running smoothly. And if you join as an executive member and enroll in auto renewal now, you’ll receive a $30 digital Costco Shop Card with the code CJOFFERS.

Here’s why a warehouse membership is the missing piece to your busy season:  

You can find a gift for literally anyone on your list

Knocking out all your holiday shopping at one store is some pro level holiday ninja action, so get ready to impress yourself. At Costco, you can find something for your nephew (Xbox Stereo Headset for gaming), mom (Trophy Skin RejuvaliteMD for pro level skincare results at home), or co-worker (Halloween Belgian Chocolate Covered Strawberries – maybe they’ll share!). Forgot your college roomie was going to be in town for Christmas Eve? A box of Kirkland Signature Golf Balls should do the trick. We could do this all day — try us. 

It makes hosting happily happen

Even if you love having people over, holiday hosting — especially overnight guests — can be stressful. Take the sting out by having everything you need to make guests more comfortable, and you more relaxed. Grab some Takeya 2-quart Beverage Pitchers to keep the juice and water handy at breakfast, and make sure the house is festive with a front door wreath like the 24” Pre-Lit Artificial Mixed Greenery Wreath

They offer grocery delivery

In between shopping for a new ‘fit for the office party, getting a White Elephant gift for the office party, actually working all day at the office and then going to the office party, when were you planning to hit the store for groceries? Costco offers standard, 2-day, and even same day delivery on everything you want to eat if you ever manage to go home.
