Costco remains one of the most popular warehouse clubs in the country, with roughly 136 million cardholders and a spot among the top retailers in the U.S., according to the National Retail Federation. That kind of reach speaks to the value many shoppers find in a membership.
Plans start at $65 per year for Gold Star and Business memberships, or $130 for the Executive tier, which includes added perks like rewards and extra discounts. Members can also tap into bulk pricing, service deals and access to select locations like Costco Business Centers.
