    I’ve seen it work if you can show them a Price Club, Price Costco, and Costco Wholesale card, with the names matching of course. This is know as the 3/4th’s rule, where you show at least 3 out of the 4 known club cards. Google “Costco rule34” for more info. Don’t tell more than one person though, it’s a secret 🤫

    Sounds about right! Costco does not issue official Government ID’.
    Ask your self “Would the accept Costco card in another country?”.

      Technically they would allow it, seeing as costco is a worldwide company.

      Now how you enter that other country is a bit more problematic.

    TSA is awake enough to notice the wrong ID? Don’t they tend to allow a lot of weapons?
