Saw $1.99 vs. Race Trac/Valero $1.39

....And still a few people at the pumps filling up,

I think the owner is just trying to see what they can get away with now.

Pretty crazy, the chevron on Paces Ferry in ATL is exactly like that. It's easily about 60-70 cents higher every day. Gotta love Chevron, really sticking it to the people that have their gas cards at the pump and interest rates.

Race track is like the dollar store of gas. It's always significantly cheaper.

When I'm riding with my boss when we go to lunch he constantly goes there to fill up. The other day I was fricking with him about going there and he was oblivious to what I was talking about. Evidently he doesn't pay attention to gas prices and just likes to go there

I don't believe it's Chevron setting the prices

It's a better product that's why it's more expensive.

It keeps poor people from trashing up the place.

Don't blame the ownership.

The people that live around there can afford an extra $.60 gallon

Even if it's the proprietor, they still represent the brand. It's not a coincidence that they are completely higher than any competition in different areas of the country.

I write my gas off on taxes so most of the time I normally am not looking at the cost. I like that station because of the inside so I would still stop by there anyway

So you add 15 gallons of gas and spend an extra $9? Meh, that's a lunch.

Bocage ballers don't pay attention to gas prices.

That doesn't make any sense. Even if you write the gas off you are still paying ~$0.40 more per gallon.


Why don't you use a mileage deduction anyway?

It's right next to bocage and some other rich neighborhoods. Probably want to keep out the riffraff while still making $$

Because the inside is nice, never a wait for the registers or the pump. The circle k on Jefferson and Lobdell, with its 2 pumps, is a shite hole inside with never less than a 5 min wait behind lottery buying poors and alcoholics.
Oh, and the Race Track on Essen is a third world country.
