My general impression watching from a distance is that people simply can't manage the highly technical and demanding task of having to insert their Costco card before their credit card. I just sit there and watch them insert a card, then just mash at the buttons by the screen only to repeat that process about 10 more times without reading the screen to see where they hosed up in the process. Also a special shout out to everyone with their full-size SUV or lifted truck that could only afford to put $40 in the tank because gas just jumped 30 cents a liter. Saw atleast five of those people there last time I filled up lol. Tony quidprano fucked around with this message at 15:30 on May 4, 2018 |

If you are not using your Costco Citi card for gas you are doing it wrong. One card, one swipe, wait about 10 seconds, pump.

I dunno, those are the ones we have here in California (at least where I am, maybe different elsewhere). They're nice and sturdy but, ironically, not of much use in Costco because of their small size.

Going to do the same, I haven't ordered much lately. I go to Co almost weekly now. Maybe I should switch credit cards too.

Just don't put raw garlic cloves on your pizza as they won't "roast" while the pizza cooks.

You know those pictures of the gas stations right before the hurricane where the cars are going around the block? That's what the local Costco gas station looks like every single day I drive by. (Tustin Costco, shout out to the goon in this thread who knows what I'm talking about.) FCKGW fucked around with this message at 22:28 on May 4, 2018 |

I think there are multiple Tustin goons in this thread. I don't get gas there because I have a company credit card but its american express. I also get in/out via Tustin Ranch & Warner so I don't have to go near the gas station. Very blessed that its on the other side of the street and not in the same parking lot.

FCKGW posted:(Tustin Costco, shout out to the goon in this thread who knows what I'm talking about.) That gas station line sucks, and it makes getting in and out of the shopping nearby hell on earth. But yeah, probably true of most Costco Gas. About half the time I pass my local Costco gas the line is so bad I don’t stop unless I’m below a quarter tank.
