PLUS, if I'm not mistaken, if you're a member (I'm not) you get a nickle or something back per litre into your membership share equity!
The masses have an irrational sensitivity towards gasoline prices. Most people wouldn't think of waiting in line for 20+ minutes to save a dollar for anything but when it comes to gasoline prices people will drive to a gas station out of their way and wait in line to save a totally insignificant amount of money.
