If their prices are not the cheapest I shop elsewhere, but as a whole Shell gets most of my business.

When I last posted the BP truck stop was unnamed and now has been totally upgraded and is owned by Gavin Oil Company. The station, one of 25, is called Kent's Korner. It offers the cheapest fuel prices and now non-ethanol Regular 87 Octane which I use all the time.

So I most frequently go to stations either operated by King Soopers, or their convience store affliate, Loaf-n-Jug. I also get my gas at the Sam's Club auto refueling station. Discounted gas is everything when the national average is depressingly close to $4/gallon.

reb4 Champion Author Chicago Posts:19,353 Points:1,848,810 Joined:Sep 2004	Message Posted: Mar 16, 2012 9:34:55 AM Ignore reb4 Report Abuse BP (used to be mobil but switched), Shell. Surprisingly they are the least expensive typically in my area... I have purchased gas at citgo, and a food branded fuel station... but in both cases fuel was less than 15 cents less per gallon (other stations had raised prices). Chicago has switched over to special formulated gasoline so the price has gone up approximately a $1/gallon from month ago.
