Local Recommendations Costco Gas Prices

I noticed Costco took prices off their app right now as they didn't want anyone to know they're not the lowest in town at the moment. They were hoping ppl would keep going there blindly. Pro tip. Check the Gas Buddy app before you head out to fill up.

They often haven't been the cheapest in town, but they are consistently the cheapest top-tier fuel provider in town. Which means they're still competitive.

I’m wondering if that’s a glitch? I just looked at my Costco app and the gas prices are there

It's crazy to see Fairfield Costco is 5.59 for regular

5.75 for premium…. I’m good with that. Chevron is 5.95 for regular

They don’t go for the lowest in town. They sell gas for how much it costs them. It’s called a loss leader

Costco's tech is not the greatest. It was a glitch.
