Alert Gas price showdown

[MapNerd]

Location: Bellingham, Washington (Costco)
Fuel type: gas & diesel
Price per gallon: $3.219 (Regular), $3.699 (Premium), $3.219 (Diesel)

As far as I’ve seen, Costco’s prices are the lowest in our area. What amazes me is the difference in prices at adjacent stations; as much as $.50/gallon. “Back in the day” when I worked at a gas station, we tried to keep prices similar to (or, lower than) other stations in the area. Go figure!

Hard for a little gas station, many of which are franchises that just license to BP, Exxon or the others, to compete with Costco

I wasn’t necessarily referencing stations “adjacent” to Costco. It is common in this area to see two brand-name (Shell, Chevron, Mobil, etc.) stations on opposite corners with prices as much as $.50 apart.

Oh. I misunderstood then, I would certainly think that’s odd as well.

Diesel $1.90/gal……Judy quit slapping me! Oh, sorry, she was waking me up as I was dreaming. Much closer to $4.90/gal for diesel in the Bay Area. Will post an exact quote tomorrow.

Well...I was wrong. Just got back from the pumps and now 91 Octane exceeds $5.00 per gallon. Sorry TJ if that sounds political to you ? Didn't intend to hurt anyone's feelings.

Dude. How do you afford to live out there??

Just went to a 1.41 a litre for gas in our small town in interior BC. It’s more expensive in Vancouver but that’s skytrain taxes etc. Still. Pricey. I think it’s 1.19 litre in Alberta. And for our American friends, currently a 1.41 Canadian per litres is about 4.30 US dollars per US gallon.

diesel is cheaper at about 1.20 per litre.

Totally coincidental, Tesla at about 9 o’clock this morning started to build a 16 stall Supercharger a block and a half from our house. I could throw a rock at it. (Well, maybe not, but it’s close). Wife put it on Twitter and somebody already said that it will be 12 V3 Superchargers and 4 CCS/Chademo stalls for the non Tesla bunch. Woohoo. Reality we probably will never use it as we charge at home unless we are on a road trip. But for out of towners coming thru our town it’s perfectly situated. Surrounded by 7 restaurants, Walmart. Mall is a block away. Cool.
