So I recently purchased my first warehouse member club membership at Costco ($60 for myself + spouse) for just the basic membership, for a few months never really considered using them for fuel as I did not imagine they would be much cheaper than the QT I usually fill up at. Yeah I MAJORLY regret that now - where I am at (Atlanta) CostCo even beats the price leader QT by a good 50 cents per gallon on both regular and premium and it is only maybe ~2 miles further drive than the QT I previously went to - the $8-9/tank I save on my 2x per month fill easily pays for the membership cost. It is a top tier fuel and my CostCo they must turn those tanks over regularly as the place is always a zoo unless you hit it early in the morning.
I will say my savings are based on very low mileage driving (~500/miles month MAX) so the savings could even be greater if you pile the miles on. What were regular $51-52 fillups are now $42-43 fillups once the gas light comes on, I am definitely a happy camper.
If you have a CostCo convenient to you would highly recommend price comparing. Only downside if you are one to run mid-grade is they only offer regular unleaded (87) and premium (93) at the one closest to me, I would guess other CostCo are probably similar.
