Costco/Sam's Club gas - wow
Hi all,
If you have a Costco or Sam's club nearby, I recommend buying gas from them (particularly if you are buying premium). It cost me $60 to join, but I am saving between $4 and $6 per tank. I just bought premium today for $1.99/gallon, other stations nearby are charging $2.49 or higher. I have no affiliation with them, just impressed with the savings.... |

CA is ~$3.90 for premium 7000 / 3.9 = ~1,795 gallons of gas ~25 mpg of spirited driving 1795 * 25 = ~44,875 miles per year you'd have to drive to hit that 1% mark. At 4% cash back, if the average driver hits 15,000 miles, that's ~$2,340 you're spending on gas per year, yielding ~$93.6 per year cash back. I'll stick with my 3% cash back on everything Amex, I spend way more. |

And yes. Costco gas is good. I fill up from Costco when we go shopping there.

Gotcha. Yeah that's not half bad at all then especially if you're sharing it amongst family members.
I feel like Costco is all about sharing - like, everything they do is planned around buying in bulk and family planning not individual, so that makes sense. |

In my area, Costco is ALWAYS packed and honestly, too far away from my home. I'll pay a little more for convenience and less time spent waiting for a pump.
If you live close to one and frequently shop there that shit is a pretty awesome deal though. |

Just put in E85 if you really want to save money on gas. Especially if it's a lease you don't intend to keep. I don't drive many miles at all, so it doesn't matter to me. Shell provides one of if not the best premium fuel, has lots of stations, never had to wait, and I like paying through the app (you can save 5-10c/gal too).
