The retail giant Costco is currently running a promotion on PlayStation Store and Nintendo eShop gift cards. Retailers around the world sell gift cards for various digital storefronts. Most of the time, buyers have to pay the equivalent of the gift card, but there are times when they can get discounts.
Every year, Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals give shoppers a chance to score discounted gift cards. 2024 is no exception to the rule, with deals available at various stores. Gamers with a Costco subscription might want to turn their attention to the big-box store, as it currently offers a solid deal on PlayStation and Nintendo gift cards.

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 for $5 off. While that doesn't seem like much in the grand scheme of things, it's basically like getting “free” money if you're going to spend that much on stores anyway. For example, if you want to buy a $50 Switch game through the eShop, save $5 by buying the $50 gift card from Costco for $45 and then applying that credit to your account instead of spending the money directly on the Switch. Needless to say, anyone looking for a new PlayStation or Nintendo game who also has a Costco membership on hand should definitely consider this opportunity, though they need to act fast as the sale ends after December 2nd.
Costco gift card deals are valid through December 2nd
The $100 PlayStation Store Gift Cards really came at the perfect time. Sony 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 pricing information for the sale has yet to be revealed. PlayStation gamers should definitely check out the PlayStation Store on December 2nd to see if anything catches their eye.
Meanwhile, it's also worth pointing out that your PlayStation Store gift card balance can also be used to top up 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 they might as well take advantage of this Costco deal to renew their PS Plus at a discount.
