AA Gift Cards - Save 10% @ Costco [only remaining supply left - phasing out]

Just got back from Costco and they had $300 AA gift cards for $269.99. From the signage it appears to have a limit of 8 cards per transaction. Hard to get a 10% guaranteed return anywhere right now, but for AA folks this is a good deal.

Edited to add: Costco location = Pentagon City, VA.
