I'd really never heard of this gas benefit. I wonder if that's true at all the stores? It wouldn't mean much to me, as I drive infrequently, and Costco is not too near me anyway.

I'm not down on the store. I really just don't understand it, which is why I was asking. I guess I would like to go shop there sometime to evaluate if I thought it was worth it to me. But it's my impression I can't do that without joining? Can I get a trial shopping trip or something? I know, I should probably just ask at the store.

Anyway, we got through the ward activity without it. And stayed well under budget without it.
