About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One day at Costco Gasoline, a regular asked aloud: ‘Why does it always smell like someone’s baking cookies here?’ Another regular chimed in with a smile: ‘Maybe they bake them right next door!’ A delivery driver overheard and chuckled, replying, “Actually, we deliver cookies from time to time.” The whole place erupted into laughter, and everyone agreed that Costco Gasoline had found its unique selling point—cookies for your soul while you fill up.

2. At Costco Gasoline, every morning around sunrise, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar. The pump nozzles seemed to flicker like tiny neon lights for just a few seconds before anyone arrived. One day, the delivery driver mentioned it to a regular customer who happened to be an electrician. They checked and found nothing wrong with the pumps. Turned out, it was just early-morning dew on the nozzles reflecting the sunlight—a natural phenomenon that only appeared during those specific moments. Since then, whenever someone asked about the ‘flickering,’ everyone at Costco Gasoline would wink and say, ‘Just another Costco mystery.’

3. At Costco Gasoline, a regular shouted one day: ‘Why do I always see the same old car parked next to the pumps?’ A delivery driver overheard and quipped, ‘That’s because it’s the only car that fits through the exit gate!’ Everyone laughed, including the old car’s owner who waved sheepishly from behind the wheel.

4. At Costco Gasoline, every night after closing, employees heard an eerie humming sound coming from the pumps. One night, a delivery driver reported hearing not just a hum but also whispers in Russian coming from the pumps. The next morning, everyone was cracking jokes about whether it was a secret gas station conversation club or just another Costco conspiracy theory.
