Google Express has been operating for some time, but large swaths of the East Coast have been excluded.
Today Google finally launched service in most cities across the country.
Step 1: If you use my Google Express referral link you’ll get $15 off $15. Just click to redeem the $15 code that will be in your account at checkout or use code: J654NK3HH
There is normally a free 3 month trial that you can cancel at any point. At the end of the trial you will be moved onto a $95 annual unlimited use membership plan or you can cancel and pay a $4.99 per delivery fee with no membership fee. The membership includes a free additional member as well. Google will email you a week before your free trial ends.
Step 2: If you click here to enroll in a membership you can use the following “Membership Promo Code” for a 6 month free trial: WELCOME
Step 3: Shop from Google Express and at redeem the $15 off $15 code that you’ll see at checkout.
Google Express is pretty awesome. Whenever we need an item from the grocery store or Costco we’ll just order it and have it the next morning!
They deliver or ship items from Costco, Walgreens, Whole Foods, and many more stores that vary based on your location right to your door overnight for the same cost as in-store. If Costco has a coupon for an item, like $2 off Ibuprofen as they do now, you’ll also get that coupon price.
You can even pay for your Costco items with an AMEX.
You do need a Costco membership to order from Costco at regular prices and perishables are only available in select areas. In some areas you can order from Costco stores without a membership, but you’ll pay a 15% premium.
Google will even return items for you, how awesome is that?
Reminder If you signed up with this promotion your 1st monthly charge will be from today and on
Can’t buy water or fish. Probably because they don’t deliver cold and bulky items. I thought that Costco was all about bulk, so what’s the point?
@Dan
Do I have to use the $15 credit right now, or can it be saved in my account for a later time?
@Food stamps?:
ALOL. ROFL
whats the best card to use for this?
Everyone is saying that the Freedom bonus does not apply but I see the merchant name in my statement as “GOOGLE *Costco” and it does show “Bonus from 3Q 5% category: Wholesale Clubs” in the details.
@everybody: Does that bonus not materialize later?
I’ve gotten 5x on Freedom in the past. Have they changed it?
It’s not a Costco charge. It’s a Google Express charge. So no 5x.
dan thanks i got both
costco order on the way
ps why are you using your amex card and not the new freedom card
Thank you!
does the $15 promo code expire?
Should I click on link 1 or link 2? I want the $15 and the welcome
Can i order through my various google accounts to the same address
?
Thanks Dan, I got 6 months free, along with the $15. Seems like the minimum here in the Burgh for free shipping from Costco is $15. They don’t have the Kedem grape juice or kosher cheese, which is available at the local store.
What’s the return policy for items bought on Google express?
Thanks Dan! I got the 6 month membership & the $15 credit
@joetraveler here in LA I have one Google express account and place orders for 2 members of my family nearby (same zip- that could be important. My friend’s mother lives a block away from her but different zip and she can’t place orders to her home)) and different cc #s but one Costco account. (My mothers – not mine). I believe you can add one other member for free. You can always call Google express – their terms and the quality of their service have diminished since the inception but their customer service is great.
Do I have to ship to the same address every time, or can I choose a new shipping address for each delivery?
Answer to my own question: Promotion is through 10/31
Can I add my costco membership to several google express accounts?
I goofed! I placed an order and they charged me the delivery fee as I had missed doing your step 2 .
I tried to do it after but it said only for new members. Can you get them to change that for me?
Thanks
is there a limit how much stuff I can order in one shot? (can I order a couple pallets of one item from Costco)
Does this have regular store policy for retrurns? For instance if I buy something from Costco will it have all the Costco benefits of returning whenever I want etc….?
I have family members that live in 3 different addresses, and we all share the same Amex card. Can one Google express membership work for all 3 addresses?
Does the 6 month trial offer expire, or can I wait till November and still get it?
I have tried buying items from Costco via Google Express, taxable items shipped from Chicago are charged at the sales tax rate in Chicago.
Which cc should I use for my order ?
Google rep. Just confirmed that there is a bug in the checkout system. You will be able to checkout tomorrow.
@Jo:
I use AMEX with Costco on Google Express.
Do you have the right billing info entered?
Otherwise, call AMEX or chat with Google.
I just placed a Costco order with Google express and my order cancelled due to payment error, my google acct is signed up with a Amex card, do Costco orders not go through with Amex since Costco stopped accepting Amex
@Joseph:
No.
Step 1 is just applying a code onto your Google account.
Step 2 is signing up for a year membership with a 6 month trial. You can use Google Express without a membership.
Then just shop for items and redeem the $15 code when you buy something.
I’m confused am I signing up for membership twice? Step 1 and then step 2? Wouldn’t I end up with 2 memberships that way?
@Daniel:
I don’t think it will count for Freedom 5x, but you do earn the 2% Executive reward.
@Phil:
Should be the same price.
@curious:
In a box.
@Kyle:
Just follow step 1 and 2.
You’ll get $15 off your first order.
@Mark:
Yes and yes.
Can you do step 1 and step 2 and get both the 6 months and 15 credit ? Step one first?
Can i use the 6 month code and then use dans referal code on my next purchase?
@Daniel:
No.
I think so.
do costco items get shipped the way they are or in a box
If Costco has a sale, do all the items on GX have the same price? Or only some?
@R: @Dan:
Not in my experience
If I pay with my Chase Freedom will I still get 5x ultimate rewards for Costco purchases this quarter? Also, will I get my 2% Costco executive member rebate on Costco purchases through google express?
Does the Costco member’s name need to match the GX member’s name?
@Mordy:
Did you click to redeem the $15 code?
Try making another order and see if the code works?
@Phil:
No, it’s a free trial.
@Dan
If I cancel within 6 months will I be charged per delivery retroactively?
6 months free worked great just ordered in airmont says two day but I guess that excepted I used the 15 off code and it worked by the checkout when I clicked pay but now that I’m looking at the order it days the total without the 15 off
It seems if you buy items from the previous post from Kohls on Google Express, you can get the rebates as well. Your welcome
If I have a Costco gift card but not a Costco membership, can I order from Costco using Google express?
Can I pay with food stamps on Google express?
Dan, got a 6 month trial with code WELCOME
6 month free trial with code WELCOME
I got 6 months trial code WELCOME.
Did not get the option for Costco without membership.
Oh the good old days when they gave you 6 months free trial, same day delivery and no minimum order (or small order) delivery fee. There’s nothing like ordering a $0.99 tube of 3oz travel size toothpaste from Target and having it delivered in 2.5 hours for a grand total of $0.99+tax.
Is this the end of Boxed?
Is it available in Brooklyn?
