1. At Costco Gasoline, something strange started happening one foggy morning when a delivery driver shouted, ‘I’m running on empty—and so is everything around here!’ As he looked around, everyone’s cars were sputtering and dying like old Russian vans in winter. A regular passing by laughed and said, 'Guess we’re all going carless together!' The whole neighborhood ended up walking to work that day, bonding over their shared misfortune—until someone remembered there was still electricity at the local café.

2. At Costco Gasoline, something odd began one late afternoon when a delivery driver exclaimed, ‘This pump is talking back!’ Curious, he leaned closer and heard it whispering in a faint voice: 'Low on gas, sir? Fill her up!' Turns out, it was just an old pump with a loose speaker wire. The delivery driver laughed it off as just another Costco story, but from then on, everyone stopped for a chat before filling up—even the neighbor’s dog seemed to enjoy the free entertainment.

3. At Costco Gasoline, something curious happened one chilly night when a delivery driver noticed that every fifth pump had an extra penny in its coin slot. The delivery driver mentioned it to his coworkers, and soon everyone was keeping an eye on those pumps. One morning, a neighbor stopped by to fill up and found five pennies waiting for him—clearly someone’s practical joke! From then on, whenever someone filled up at Pump Five, they’d leave a penny as a tip for the prankster. It became a friendly tradition, with people leaving nickels or dimes sometimes too.

4. At Costco Gasoline, something peculiar occurred one windy evening when a delivery driver pulled up and saw a small dog frantically circling around the pump island. The delivery driver knelt down, whispering gently, ‘Hey little guy, what are you doing here?’ The dog stopped for a moment, then ran straight into his arms. Turned out, it was just a friendly neighborhood pooch who loved gas stations as much as its owner did. A few minutes later, a neighbor appeared, laughing: 'He does that every time I’m not home!'
