Thanks for the info!

I'd been toying with joining, but I don't really need to. An extra $5 is making it easier to keep telling myself no!

I got a renewal letter from Costco a few weeks ago with the new rates. I figure I'm not saving $50 a year by shopping there, so I'm not going to renew. Gee, one less piece of plastic to carry around ...

I made my executive membership fee back in one day through savings on an expensive prescription for my CJ. I don't mind any fee increases across the board.
