Through December 3rd, Costco members can get $100 worth of PlayStation Store gift cards for $5 off. They can also get a $50 Nintendo eShop card with $5 off. While this doesn't seem like a big deal in the grand scheme of things, it's practically like getting “free” money if one would want to spend that much on stores anyway. For example, if you want to buy a $50 Switch game through the eShop, you'll save $5 by buying a $50 gift card from Costco for $45 and then applying that credit to your account, as opposed to spending the money directly on the Switch. Needless to say, anyone in the market for a new PlayStation or Nintendo game who also happens to have a Costco membership handy should definitely consider taking advantage of this opportunity, though they need to act fast as the sale ends after December 2nd.
Costco gift card deals run through December 2nd
The $100 PlayStation Store Gift Cards really came at the perfect time. Sony just recently announced a massive PlayStation Store 30th Anniversary Sale that will run from December 2nd to December 20th. The sale will offer discounts on 490 games, although exact information on the price of the sale has not yet been released. PlayStation gamers should definitely check out the PlayStation Store on December 2nd to see if there's anything they're interested in.
Meanwhile, it's also worth noting that your PlayStation Store gift card balance can also be used to renew your PlayStation Plus membership. PlayStation Plus gives subscribers access to monthly free games, online multiplayer and, depending on the level, access to hundreds of other titles. It's a must have for any PS4 or PS5 gamer and one might as well take advantage of this Costco deal to renew their PS Plus at a discount.
