Costco Canada is offering its members an opportunity to get free vouchers, but the offer is only available for a limited time.

Currently, Costco Canada is offering a Refer a Friend program that provides existing members with vouchers if they get a friend to sign up, and the amount you can receive in vouchers varies. According to the website, you can bring a friend to any Costco Membership Counter in Canada. Make sure to show the clerk the Refer a Friend page when your friend signs up for a new membership.

If your friend signs up for a Gold Star membership, you will receive a $25 online voucher if you spend a minimum of $125 on Costco.ca. And if your friend signs up for an Executive membership, you’ll receive a $50 online voucher if you spend a minimum of $200 on Costco.ca.

“The offer is valid for members who bring a friend who sign up as a new Costco member,” reads the website. “Only new members or members that have been expired for 18 months or more can qualify.”

You might want to act soon — the Refer a Friend program is only available until Aug. 31, and online vouchers are valid until Sept. 28.

A Costco Gold Star membership costs $65 plus tax and gives members access to shop at Costco warehouses and online. It also includes two membership cards. An Executive membership costs $130 plus tax per year. Members can earn an annual two per cent reward, $10 monthly credit on a minimum $150 order on the Instacart App or Costco Same-Day, and additional benefits.
