I made one of my regular trips to Costco today and as usual, noticed the insanely large line at the gas pumps. I would say the wait had to be at least 30 minutes and that may be conservative.
Now, I get waiting a long time for some serious discounts. Like if you're going to be saving hundreds of dollars, I can see where the draw is at least.
But this is gas...
The premium price was 4.35/gallon. I drove down the street and paid 4.40 a gallon.
Sooo that would have been a whole savings of .65 to fill up my 13 gallon tank.
Even if I saved $3 on my tank of gas, I still just don't get how people can wait in those long of lines.
All I could think about was this had to be the perfect example of life in the slowlane.
