you get the idea.

gasoline without a card.

Now i know why 😁

lines are usually much shorter.

members at renewal.

they make much more on memberships.

I love the BS that big gas stations spread about "we have to sell the gas we bought already at a higher price. Yet they jump the pump price on rumors that there might be trouble in the Middle East, the next hour. This while their tanks are still full of low price gas they bought last week.

the higher prices are definitely too sticky on the way down.

At my local NoVa Costco, a trucker said they were doing 5 tankers a day minimum. They do not sell older/higher priced gas.

I was just thinking about that this week, I went there twice, and both times there was the delivery truck there and lines of people waiting for gas (though lots of people don't seem to get which side of their car the gas filler is)

That's one of the nice things about the COSTCO's I've gone to across the country...their hoses will meet the far side of the vehicle for fueling. Wish all stations would follow their lead.

even in Texas which appears to be running about $1.75 a gallon lower than California.

I guess you all know that any gasoline purchased using your Costco card gets the same rebate percentage as if you bought it at Costco?

I do love that little email with the rebate in February

But got a Costco card..definitely worth it.

Yikes! Gas prices are dropping. What is the gQp going to turn to now to rile up their base (of simple idiots)?

Would use more gas than I would save. Also, I have a principle not to frequent retailers that charge me a fee to shop there.

I love their stores too. There is a new one going up in East Lansing and I go that way twice a month.

Bummer.

Fortunately I have 2 Costcos near me, 1 just 5 minutes away, the other 15. I went on a weekday and the line wasn't too bad, maybe 5-10 minutes max. Well worth it.

Costco memberships are totally worth it. We save a lot on groceries (and not everything is in bulk anymore, though some items are), clothes, gifts, electronics etc. I just got a laptop computer there - better quality for less than elsewhere.

I've been a member from before it was Costco, back when it was Price Club.

BJs is close by, Costo is a drive (how much is my time worth?), & BJs frequently runs promotions where if you buy 2 products of a specific brand you then get 25 cents a gallon off, on that day.

It works for me.

I have a fair layperson's understanding of how & why our market is often treated as separate. But I think perhaps De Haan may have forgotten that prices spiked here at the same time as everywhere else in the nation. It was sort of a big deal.

Now if inflation is under control, the poor gQp is going to have to find boogey-men that they can scare the stooges in amuriKKKa with. This was their poison for politics...."high gas prices", brought on, of course, by not letting our suffering oil companies have free rein over the land and waters off the USA to rape the land of every fucking drop of crude they can harvest.

What can they do? Just asking....cause this pedophile scare tactic is not catching on as fast as they had hoped.

I go out of my way to get my gas there.

Out on the beach.
Drill baby drill.

I almost always fill up at Costco, but recently I got gas at a couple of other places. I thought something was wrong with my car. It was running so badly. But, after a more recent fill up at Costco, things are back to normal.

Least expensive in my neighborhood.

Gas is probably more expensive in the more bourgeois counties around the Bay, but Solano County is the Mississippi of the Bay Area counties.

I run my 36mpg econo car on regular, not exquisite or supreme.
