The Arco I'm sure your referring to down on Sepulveda and Ocean? haha always really damn cheap there, too bad Arco gas is crap. The Chevron on Sepulveda and Prairie and the 76 on Crenshaw and Sepulveda are usually where I fill up
Paid $4.29 a gallon yesterday with my $.20 cent per gallon discount. Sadly with that Vons or Ralphs rewards point for gas discount works half way for me. I use my credit card for gas so I get the increased price by $.10 /gallon. So really I get $.10 off per gallon and waived credit card fee per gallon.

Works for me though. still beats paying $4.39 a gallon.

I pay $4.45 ($4.25 after $.20 off) for 91 at the Shell on Sepulveda and Venice. I use my CC but do not get charged an extra $.10. Is that your bank doing it?

I live in PV, and I drive down Crenshaw every day. I fill up at Shell on Crenshaw and Lomita, I use a buddy's Ralph's discount for .20 off all every time and they don't charge for credit card, and I get 3-5% cash back on that too.

Arco is a Top Tier gas, so it isn't that bad. And if ever I feel I get crap gas, I work for a lab, I can get any and every additive for free, LOLLLLL

Its not my bank, Chevron and 76 usually have a credit card/debit card usage fee. May start going to shell now if that's the case, sadly id have to start shopping at ralphs. Right now I use a friends vons discount for the .20 off right now.

I usually get 3%-5% cash back too just depends on what card I decide to use.
As for Arco, I never go there just because I used to go to Arco with my Altima I had a couple years back and had to get the gas tank changed twice due to fact of the deposits clogging up in the tank. After that only used Shell, Chevron and 76 for gas. Used Arco very rarely only when I have to use it usually on road trips where there isn't another gas station or something like that. Never have had good luck with arco

But lets get some of that additives going around and maybe I will start using it again haha
If I could fill up with more than 91 octane I would

Water shortage, gas prices are up, fires ---- heaven. I get great weather, diverse culture, beaches, mountains, friendly car people, Fast Intentions, and Specialty Z. It's a wash.

I couldn't agree more. Since moving from San Diego to Raleigh, NC I have saved a bunch in fuel, partially because it costs less, partially because there is nowhere to go. Car is stored 4 months/year, no local mountian drives, no cruising to the beach. And no Tony or Seb.

Thats were we shine over everywhere else, everyone wants to be here even though they don't want to admit it....! We have it all; mountains (outdoor life), desert, beaches, great city life, real lakes (yea they have water at those), and perfect temps pretty much year round in S.Cal! Our Z's never have to go into winter storage here:-)
