Costco Gas

I prefer this Costco gas over the other locations I’ve been to. First, it’s so out of the way for people that the lines are not as long. Second, they have 3 pumps for every line, except the far right, so the lines moves quickly and efficiently. If I have the time or I need to go to Walmart or Grocery Outlet Poway then I’m at this Costco location for gas and groceries.

Great prices for gas and the lines here aren’t as long as most of the other Costco gas station. Minus one star for removing the trash cans. Why do the Costco gas stations in the area no longer provide trash cans?

Lines aren’t nearly as long as many other locations. Most of the lines have 3 nozzles which makes the wait shorter. Prices can’t be beat for the quality of gas you get. Their gas has similar additives as Chevron and Shell for the price of Arco. There are attendants there to help. Have your Costco card and debit card ready before you get to the front of the line.

This is my favorite Costco gas station because it’s never too busy! There’s 3 pumps to every lane and the lines go quick. Costco has is the cheapest around for the quality. If you’re in the Poway business park area, make your stop. Highly recommended!

Best prices always!!! There is also a car wash at this location that is really good and cheap.

Costco always has a great price on gas & even though the lines are long sometimes, they seem to move pretty quickly. What I really like about this gas station is the gas attendant Melanie. She’s great! I have a hard time pumping my gas because I’m in a wheelchair and plus I can take way too long. Whenever I pull into the gas station I always seem to find her and she’s always so helpful. She always has a smile on her face and she is always great to talk to. One of the main reasons I come to this gas station is because of Melanie.

Cheapest gas in town. We use our Costco American Express card. I wish they’d take cash, but that would probably take longer.
You can pump gas from any lane as the pump cords are super long.
It would also be nice if it was open extended hours.

Some of the best gas prices around, it can have a long wait if you hit peak hours like when people getting off work at 5−6pm, but the price is what brings you here so the short wait is worth it. They only take ATM and you must be a Costco Member.

With the ridiculous gas prices in California, any discount on gas is a welcome relief. I paid $ 3.87 per gallon. So sad that seems like a steal, right? Costco saves me money yet again. Well worth the membership dues.

Everyone knows its the prices that has people lining up at the pump! :)

Love this gas station! Best price in town. Love that the hoses are long enough so that you can go on either side of the pump. Nice that there’s always an attendant making sure everything is moving along… only needed one once when my particular pump was having issues reading credit cards.
Note that the gas station has hours that go beyond (both before and after) store hours… very cool!

This is such a convenient gas station for me. I usually get gas either on my way home from work or on my way to work. Just like any other Costco, lines are inevitable. They do go by quick. I also believe they open pretty early and close late. There were a few times when one if the workers helped me pump my gas which was awesome! They were pretty friendly. This gas is probably the cheapest in this area.

This Costco gas station is convenient to me as it is close to my job. I never have problems here and their gas is the cheapest in the area at good quality.
They close at 9:30 pm which is great since i get off 9:15 and I usually wait till i see that orange light lol.
Lines do get long but it does go quick and worth the wait.

So since I sucked it up and got a Costco card I have never looked back. Costco is awesome and the gas is so much cheaper than out in town. It may seem like the line for the gas is not worth the wait but believe me it moves along pretty quick and they have tons of pumps. They only have regular and premium so if you are looking to fill up your sports car with Supreme you might have to go elsewhere. But seriously with the American Express card and the Costco membership you get money back based on how much you spend in the year. So if you already gas up your car why not get it cheaper than around town and get money back for doing it??!

I really like that there is a third set of fuel pumps in the middle aisles. Good for those RV’s that gasblock an entire row. I think customers would appreciate if more Costco stations had another available set of pumps, especially on the weekends.
Other than that, it’s your standard Costco gas station. Clean and spacious. The hoses are long enough to reach over and across your vehicle, so you can pick the shortest line queue and use any available fuel pump. When it’s your turn, safely park close enough to the pump and don’t block the pathway between cars so others can get through. It seldom happens, but some special individuals still have difficulty with this basic-​intermediate parking task, which screws up the zen and flow of organized chaos.
The Costco attendants are visible with their reflective vests and available to help out when needed. I haven’t had to call anyone over since the station is relatively newish, looks well maintained, and I’ve never had any issues with the card reader or gassing up the car. I only noticed that one of the pumps was marked out-​of-​order with orange road cones.
It’s nice that they put the gas station on the way to the shopping plaza as your first errand and far enough away from the parking lots to minimize traffic. I think I’ve filibustered long enough. Have a nice day :)

Always the best prices around
Lines are always bad
Bring your costco card!
Little secret (use the Costco AmEx card and save an extra 4%!!! Whaaaaaat?! (Yes) &‘it’s free

Poway has got it made, their Costco Gas station is quite larger than most I’ve visited in San Diego county. Their station is not nearly as busy as Santee or Mission Valley either. The great thing here is the fact Costco built three pumps per aisle instead of the usual two. Like always, Costco Gas prices always beat everybody’s in town, even crappy Arco.

Love this gas station. Especially now that they added some pumps. Like all Costco gas stations, they are busy during peak hours. If you come before 11am on the weekends you miss the lines.

I just have to say gas is cheaper here by like 20 cents or so. It is a hit or miss for me when it comes to how long the lines are. I usually come right after work just like everyone else to fill up gas in the middle of the week. There is only 87 and 91 octane. Who fills 89?
Oh yeah, you don’t necessarily have to go in the line on the side of where your gas door is located. Thankfully, the gas hose extends over the car pretty well, but you still need to get kinda close just to be sure.

Life’s a bitch, then your gas tank goes empty.
10 cents cheaper than the nearest competitor and the lines are usually four times longer. A one star penalty.
Gas prices went up another 40 cents. Another one star penalty.
Be sure to work on pumping gas from the right side of your car, the line is usually shorter, but folks are catching on. Take your pick. Work on your «pass and reverse park» technique, you’ll need it when the guy at the front pump leaves. Be sure to park close to the pump or you’ll piss off somebody trying to pass and leave. You’ll get sideswiped.
Best to fill up in the weekday mornings. Avoid filling up after 5pm weekdays and weekends. The gas line can go out to the street and into the stop light intersection. Not a good place to be.
When it does, go somewhere else if you’re not driving on fumes.
I suggest Arco or USA Gas near the I-​15.
