It has already been pointed out up thread that these easily could be up to 15% if one has a costco executive membership and a cashback amex. @:-)
And this little wee mind is waiting for the daily double. A promo discount purchased with GCs.

It boggles my wee mind that anyone who posts a request in the "Promo code" thread is not out purchasing GCs. After all this is not 10% off a base fare but 10% off the all-in.

I am working in the DC area this week and stopped by the Pentagon City Costco to buy some (20) gift cards. 277 in stock as of this afternoon.

Called the Southlake, TX store with the item number and was told "we don't carry that product" I then asked if any of the stores in DFW do and she said "no one in this area does" Bummer.

Maybe AA does not want to stock in DFW because of the significant hold they have on that market.

I doubt it's AA making the decisions which Costco's carry the cards. That's like us deciding where AA flies. It don't happen that way. I'm sure someone in RM at Costco is targetting which warehouses make sense and they are in the same vacuum as AA RM.
I suggest keep asking your local Costco, maybe they can get some if they see the interest is there. Imagine the business they'd do if they put them online!

I think it's a safe bet AA might have requested Costco not offer them in certain locations.
