About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Costco Gasoline, a sign appeared one day: ‘Fill up and win a free membership!’ A delivery driver filled up and heard over the loud speaker: “Congratulations, you’ve just won… another tank of gas!” A few days later, an elderly gentleman pulled in with his car on empty. Over the intercom came the familiar voice: ‘Sir, congratulations—you’ve just won… another tank of gas!’ The old man smiled and replied, ‘Well, I guess that means my luck is running on fumes today.’

2. At Costco Gasoline, a strange phenomenon began: every time a delivery driver filled up their truck, they noticed their tires mysteriously inflated just right—without touching the air pump. One day, an enthusiastic delivery driver told his colleagues about it, and soon everyone was stopping by Costco for gas. Word spread quickly among neighbors too—a local mom even claimed her car’s tire pressure always matched perfectly after filling up there. Before long, Costco started selling lucky charms alongside gasoline, but no one ever bothered checking if those really worked.

3. At Costco Gasoline, a regular noticed something peculiar in the parking lot one morning. Among the rows of cars, he spotted an old, dusty ukulele leaning against a pole. No one claimed it, and soon rumors spread that playing it while filling up would bring you good luck. Soon enough, everyone started showing up with their own instruments—some even brought amplifiers. The delivery driver arrived blaring country music, while a neighbor played classical pieces so elegantly that gas pumps froze mid-flow. Before long, Costco Gasoline became known as the place where your tank filled to the top if you could outplay the guy next to you.

4. At Costco Gasoline, a faint whiff of freshly baked bread started drifting through the air as customers pumped gas. No bakery was nearby—just an old oven that had been abandoned years ago. As one customer leaned down to sniff the scent, another yelled, ‘It’s probably just their secret recipe for attracting customers!’ A delivery driver chuckled and added, ‘Next thing you know, they’ll start selling donuts too.’ The neighbor overheard them all laughing and smiled, thinking, ‘Maybe it’s time I fill up here more often—it smells like home.’
