Now propane is another story. I easily save $50 by filling up my propane bottles at Costco and you barely have to wait 5 minutes.

I usually go around 8:30 in the morning after dropping off my kid at school. The gas station down the street from our house always seems to be one of the first stations to raise pump prices. When I see their price jump, like this week, I drop off my kid and check Gas Buddy to see if Costco is cheap. At that time the gas station is usually not too busy because most people are at work or still dropping off their kids at school.
