Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com
I don't sleep much, and Costco gas opens at 5:30AM on weekdays. There's never a line at 5:30 in the morning...

If it's like the Costcos in my area, there is always a 10+ deep line for every pump. I'll eat that $10-20 to just pull right up to a pump.

The Costco closest to me rarely has more than 2 at the pumps and 2 waiting per line. Generally you can pull right up or 2 pumping and 1 waiting. The same at the one in Rancho Mirage/Palm Desert
The Costco near me when I was in San Diego pretty much always had 5-10 deep wait or more
Get a mobile CC and save 12 cents/gal and you are basically at the Costco price, plus and additional 30 cents for the first 2 months

LOL, hey man Millionaires gotta save too.
It would cost me my savings to drive to Costco for the cheap gas. I'm lucky there's a Shell with V-Power across the highway from my neighborhood so I have good (expensive) gas near me that is reliable.

I'm no Costco fanboi, but it's only about a mile further than the station nearest my house. For fitty cents a gallon w/ a ~25 gallon tank, I can be bothered.
That $12.50 will buy a six-pack of decent beer...or a fifth of rotgut. Or 3/4 of a new ignition switch for the 996.
The only time I've had to wait in line is when I showed up at 5:45AM on a Saturday - that's when I learned they don't open until 6AM on weekends. Slackers.

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com
Yeah if it were something like that for me I'd do it as well but our nearest Costco is 15 miles away I think and so ever since my parents have moved here I've had my dad grab stuff for us and I just pay him back. Killer deal for us haha. We never "grocery shopped" there anyway because we are such a small family - just dry goods and "supplies".

Well, hands are still improving after that near paralysis a couple years ago. Was told I might not ever recover use of right hand.
