[quote=CBad]Yesterday I drove by the Costco in Vista and there were crazy long lines both in the parking lot and lines carrying into the street (in 2 separate areas) for gas. Gas was $3.83. Just down the road on Plaza at ARCO it was…….$3.83. Seriously, I just don’t get the Costco sheep. Even if another station was a few cents more was it really worth the time in line on your weekend? Why do people just get in that line and assume it’s the best price?
P.S. I hope they killed the engine while they were waiting but I kinda doubt most did.[/quote]
I don’t go to ARCO because they don’t take credit cards. I get cash back when I use my credit card and I’m sure that almost everyone else in that Costco gas line was getting some kind of kickback as well. So in this case, the Costco gas was still cheaper than ARCO’s. Not sure if I would have waited in line, though.
