You best payoff is to use a points earning card like the Starwood AMEX and purchase an AMEX gift card through Big Crumbs using the link in my signature. You would earn the points from Starwood for buying the gift card AND get 1.6% cash back from Big Crumbs. Then use the AMEX gift card at Costco online or at the Costco store, or any other store. Points plus 1.6% cash.

As an executive member you would get an additional 2% cash back up to their annual cap.
