I was at my local Costco today and they were selling gamepass ultimate cards for $90. These were for 6 months but had a listed value of $99.99, I’m guessing this is based on the old price of GPU. If I buy and redeem these now , will I get 6 months of GPU or will I get the $100 value which would be 5 months?

I have a question to do with game pass. I’ve subscribed to PC only so the wife and I can play together on our desktops, however I have a question to do with subscription tiers. I can buy Xbox gift cards through Costco for a very cheap monthly subscription, however they offer “Core” and “ultimate” only, nothing refers to the PC only pass. If I buy “Xbox Game Pass Core - Digital Download” will that count towards a PC only game pass?
ADVISE: it appears that as of 9/11 the conversion has been changed from 3:2 to 2:1.
On CD Keys I got 3 years of XBL Gold and 1 months of Ultimate for $140. This gets you 2 years of ultimate for less than $6 per month. Below is the guide I used and everything worked flawlessly, just have to make sure your current sub expires first!
I know it's probably old news too a lot of you but just putting it out there for those in aware.

Costco Canada has 6 months ultimate for $125. Comes to about $20.83, much better than the $33.99 it would be monthly. Highly recommend if you plan to continue with Ultimate for a good value.
Typically my wife and I buy Game Pass gift cards at Costco when it’s time to renew. We need to reup and to our dismay, the Costco app is showing ZERO Xbox items not consoles, not games, and no cards. Anyone else experiencing this or have any insight?
I received an Xbox series X for Christmas I am debating getting Xbox Game pass Ultimate any reviews of the subscription anything I should know i am coming from a PS5!
I have always had game pass core but I want to upgrade to standard, does anybody know where I can find game pass standard for 1 year? I can’t seem to find it anywhere. live in Canada if needed
Does anyone have a reliable site for game pass ultimate keys?
I've been paying for Game Pass Ultimate since the generation started, and while I do think the $16.99/mo price tag is still a great value, I just wish there was an option where you could pay yearly at a discounted rate. It's odd because Game Pass Core (Formerly Xbox Live Gold) has the yearly option. And PlayStation Plus allows you to pay yearly too, with their Premium tier being $17.99/mo OR $159.99/year, a 25% discount.
I think a yearly sub for $160 or even $170 would be really cool and I'd totally pay for it. Would you pay yearly?
(EDIT): I know you can get Game Pass through MS Rewards, but I use my Reward Points on micro-transactions (V-Bucks, Auric Cells, Overwatch Coins, etc.). But thank y'all for the CDKeys suggestions and Game Pass Core Conversion.
Xbox Consoles And Games Pulled From Costco Sites In The US And UK - But PlayStation And Nintendo Are Still There
Costco appears to have removed its Xbox section from its US and UK websites. Furthermore, there are no results when you search for Xbox products and games, suggesting that all Xbox stock has been pulled from Costco's online offerings.
The site still has dedicated sections for Nintendo and Sony, with the Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, and PlayStation 5 available to purchase online, alongside their games.
Others then noted that the entire Xbox section had been pulled, with Xbox no longer listed in the Video Game & Consoles category. This category still lists VR, PlayStation, and Nintendo.
We don't know why Costco isn't carrying any Xbox products right now, but there is a chance that this is in relation to Microsoft's poor performance during this console generation. Its attempt to go head-to-head with Sony on the game exclusivity front didn't work, with Xbox now porting many of its games to PS5. There has been speculation that Xbox will pull out of the console business altogether, much like Sega did after the Dreamcast, but Microsoft has denied this, and plans for the next generation of Xbox are in place.
Now that Cdkeys and other similar sites seem to no longer work, is there any other way to get Ultimate cheaper or is subbing directly through Microsoft the only way moving forward?
