I plan on using my mom's costco card, but I worried because of the picture ID on the back.

No, you shouldn't worry about it. I used my dad's and mom's cards at times to get inside Costco and buy things. The workers there didn'tcare.

I'm not 100% sure, but do you have to show your Membership card when you enter?

WAIT.
I work at the Costco in San Leandro, California (apparently one of the busiest in the world) and we ALWAYS check who's using the card. If it isn't theright person, the card becomes blocked and the next time someone tries to use it they'll be given a fuss about giving it out.
But that probably might just be my Costco, our management sucks.
Just looking out.

Hells no. Sometimes my lil brother would go there to buy a box of M&Ms and just ask the person infront of him to use their card

what? it doesnt matter how old u are.
the one here in VA u just flash the card when u enter and the woman just acknowledges me. in the summer i always use my moms card to get gatorade and chocolatecovered raisons. then when i go to pay i just hand them cash and they never ask for it.

Just look over and say, "Huh? My card? Oh, my family is inside waiting for me" and continue walking. Works every time

My local one does unless you're paying with cash because the name on the credit/debit card has to match the Costco card. They threw a big fuss when I triedto use my AMEX to pay for my mom's stuff. (She gave them her membership card to scan).

Yeah, that's exactly the one I'm talking about. I live in SSF and they never check the photo ID. You just flash them the card and walkby. When I buy things there myself with my parents' card, they never questioned me. I guess it's YMMV (your mileage may vary) for Costco'sregarding going in with someone else's card.

They check to see that you have a card, and that's about it. I use my mom's card all the time. Flash it to the guy at the door, and the person at theregister never says anything.
