Good point but the difference for me is even bigger ... it's literally $1.40/gallon more for Premium at the Exxon around the corner from me vs. Costco Premium gas

As for the cost of my time, that calculation also works in my favor. Since I am already going to Costco, my extra time there is only 10 minutes because the gas lines move quickly, so saving at least $14 (ten gallon fill up avg) each fill-up is certainly worth the extra 10 minutes for me, no question

To be fair, it does take an extra 10 minutes to drive past the local Exxon to get to Costco. But as you already know with many of us working from home, driving an extra 10 minutes in my M3 ANYWHERE quickly becomes the highlight of my day
