    There's no restrictions, they are gift certificates, cash value at LM. Costco has many of those types of gift certificates for restaurants that I have used before. I'm not sure how you are calculating your cost per round, but as mentioned above, it is a 20% savings.

    -Say I plan to play after 2pm, the LM rate is $48 +tax = $54
    -Let's say I play 2 rounds at LM. The normal rate would be a total of $108 incl taxes.
    -If I buy the certificates for $80 (I heard taxes are included), it's worth $100.
    -So for me to play 2 rounds at LM after 2pm would cost me $80 for the gift certificates, plus $8 difference.
    -So 2 rounds at LM after 2pm costs $88 using the certificates. =$44.

    If I play early mornings at LM it will cost more.

    If they are gift certificates, can't imagine why there would be restictions. Sounds like a decent deal for sure.

    I am confused... It sounds like you pay $80 at Costco to get a $100 Gift Card for Loch March...
    I am not sure how that translates to $44 per round tax incl on the weekend???

    The rate at Loch March does not change. It is $70 + hst on weekend mornings = $79.10

    A foursome costs $79.10 x 4 = $316.40 CASH

    BUT

    If you buy 3 gift cards at Costco, that costs you $240 (but equals $300 in LM $) so you would have to pay $16.40 in addition to the 3 gift cards.

    Still doesn't seem like half price the weekend morning rate.

    In reality though, it's still just 20% off. No matter when you play. (Not saying 20% is bad or anything).
    Ambition is a poor excuse for not having enough sense to be lazy.

    Checked out the LM deal at Costco today -- the way I read it you get $100 credit for what ever you choose. Looks to me after checking the LM web site that that could translate into 2 -- 18 hole games -- 1 after 2 PM during the week at $48 + tax & 1 after 4 PM either on the week-end or during the week at $40 + tax. Combined with tax ~ $99

    I am playing Loch March this Friday morning at 8:00am. Is there any benefit to me in getting the deal from Costco?

    Thanks.

    Without gift certificates you'll pay $70+tax =$80 for the green fee.
    If you buy the gc for $80 (no tax and which have $100 value) you'll have $20 left over to buy something at proshop or towards another green fee.

    Went to costco on Innes, no more Loch March coupons, or none that we could see, instead they had the same deal ($80 for 100) for Outaouais in Rockland.
    So we bought it and changed our tee time to out there haha.
