If your Costco membership is up for renewal this October, you may be in for an unpleasant surprise. In September, Costco raised the cost of its fees. Now, a Gold Star membership costs $65 a year, while an Executive membership offering 2% cash back on purchases costs $130.

While the wholesale retail chain limits most purchases to folks paying the membership fee, you can still enjoy affordable prescriptions, alcohol and more without a Costco card.

While the wholesale retailer Costco will certainly join the Black Friday frenzy, you don't have to wait to get excellent deals on all products, because Costco has such great deals every day.
