IsambardPrinceSomething very cathartic about it. Operational Efficiency maybe?May 11 06:05
IsambardPrinceLike, you can buy motor oil there, high mileage synthetic, and it'll be like $16.98, which is $3 a jug cheaper than Walmart, but you have to buy a box that has two jugs.May 11 06:05
IsambardPrinceI like to use high mileage synthetic when I can, it's formulated for old engines that have some wear and maybe a leaking gasket or something, or some blowby.May 11 06:06
IsambardPrincePeople keep their cars longer  because they've gotten much more expensive.May 11 06:06

IsambardPrinceschestowitz[TR2]: They even have a gas station where they sell "Kirkland gasoline".May 11 06:17
IsambardPrinceI've heard good things about the gasoline.May 11 06:17
IsambardPrinceIt's Top Tier and they say they use 5x the EPA detergent standard even in the Regular.May 11 06:17
IsambardPrinceYou have to buy the Premium at Shell to get that much detergent, and it costs over $1 a gallon more.May 11 06:17
IsambardPrinceIt's obvious what they're doing here. The gasoline is great stuff, sold cheaply, the food court is very filling and cheap.May 11 06:18
