In another thread, I talk about how my fiancee and I found a great diamond ring through Costco''s special order program. With the sales tax and the undesirable setting, we decided to pass on the ring. We have since looked at a number of other stones, but have yet to find another one that grabs us.
We may still go back to Costco. One thing that we realized two days ago is that we can get a 2% rebate by being a Costco Executive member, and get another 1% back from the Costco American Express card. Since there''s little incremental cost from regular to executive membership, and the AmEx is fee free, this allows us to get a 3% "discount".
We''re still checking on the details to make sure there are no exclusions (there doesn''t seem to be one). Others interested in the Costco ring might want to do the same.
