On Costco.com, Costco members can purchase bundles of gift cards to a variety of stores, airlines and restaurants for less than the amount on the actual card.
"It surprises me how many people don't know this, but Costco.com actually sells gift cards to some of your favorite places at a discount," Wadan shared on his TikTok which has garnered over 513,000 views.
For example, members can purchase $100 gift cards for a number of different restaurants at a discounted rate of $80.
Southwest travelers may enjoy spending only $450 for a gift card worth $500.

"Is there any additional fee added on to purchase or activate it??," one commenter asked. Waden responded saying that there is no fee.
"I have Costco for ages and I never paid attention," another TikTok user commented.

One commenter rose the question, "How do they make money off these?"
Wadan shared that he does not "really know the optics behind that," but that shouldn't stop anyone from getting their hands on this deal.
