Quite a few people use Shell, it looks like..

I'm on a personal vendetta against Shell..

Their new marketing scheme is a bunch of crap, and it is why people think that Premium gasoline is "better" than Regular.

"Try our new V-Power!"

Sam's Club. Why? because it is the cheapest gas in town. I swing by two times a month for gasoline and stuffs from Sam's.

There is a Mobile station that is just down the street and their prices are in line with the cheap folks in town, so I just go there.

sunoco full serve gas station attendants are required to say, "[greeting], fill it up with ultra 94?" regardless of what you pull up in. like they'll give you a full tank of premium even if you come up in a yugo.

can I say exxon = mobil?
I always get from them. I feel I get less power when I get it from other generic brand.

Hess. It's a little more expensive, but it's on my way to/from work and I like the fact that they don't get their oil from saudi arabia :)

It does not really matter where I get gas. I just look for the cheapest place around when I need to full up.

I normally fill up at the Sainsbury's petrol station where my GF lives. It's 75.9p per litre there as opposed to 79.9p per litre here, and the milage I do means that I can fill up there every other week :)

BP: I get a discount on gas with my BP card, and their coffee in the Beantown Cafe is pretty good.
