Same gas. Considering especially that Gasoline is highly regulated in formulation. I fill up at that station sometimes. It's very popular.

The price is not the lowest in the area. It's the same as Sleepy Hollow, Crown, and Liberty on 50.

Are you a competing gas station owner? Why are you trying to smear it? Very sus.

Of course NO, gasoline price is high, and trying to find a station with lower price, but would like to if it is same quality.

Gas station owner has no time on forum..... I may go there as well and try to save a little bit on gasoline, crazy gasoline price these few months.

But that gas station (in my post) does not really have too much other things for sell, it surprises me how the gas station makes money, unless gasoline profit margin is high (for other gas stations).

Amazing... "Costco membership sales make up 75% of the store's profit". Membership costs me only $60 per year, Costco only makes $20 from an average customer when selling so many items.
