Free Money: Mortgage Mustard for that Costco Dog

SPONSORED POST: Even a Costco dilettante might know that few deals at the warehouse retailer are as rich as the $1.50 Hebrew National dog and soda combo. After all, the company sold over 69 million of them in 2007. But, Costco and LendingTree offer up an even better deal just for being a member.

Costco members who apply for a mortgage, home loan or realtor through LendingTree can earn up to a $300 Costco cash card.

On top of selling mammoth packs of diapers and cut-rate TVs, Costco also offers discounted financial services and other non-standard retail items to its 50 million members. Through LendingTree, Costco members can save up to $1,500 at closing on mortgage and refinancing when compared to similar loans in the Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey. Tack on the $300 cash card, and that’s nearly $2,000 in savings for your next Costco spree.

Feel free to spend it on pounds of pistachios or pallets of printer paper. Or, better yet, double down and go for the new car or Caribbean vacation.

In addition to the mortgage and refinancing special, LendingTree is also offering up to $100 for Costco members who use their service to find a real estate agent or to secure home equity financing.

Up to $300 from Costco and LendingTree.

Sure, you say, LendingTree always promises “When banks compete, you win.” What makes these offers different from others? Chalk it up to founder and CEO Jim Sinegal. For Costco members, he requires nothing but carefully selected products at discount prices. So, LendingTree and Costco work together to whittle down program participants to the best and most reliable lenders around.

Perhaps the promise should be: “When banks compete with Costco, you win more.”
