The duo will then spend a week “living on as many Kirkland Signature products as possible.”
“Are you the ultimate Costco connoisseur? Ya know, the one whose house is furnished top to bottom in Kirkland swag?” the ad asks.
“If so, we may have an opportunity that’s right up your alley (or aisle).”
Entrants must be over the age of 18 and submit their application by December 15.
The winners will then receive a $1,500 Costco Shop Card for Kirkland Signature products and give their honest reviews on them on social media posts.
When the process has ended, both will scoop a $1,000 bonus as well as a one-year Costco Executive membership provided by online-casinos.com.
