Costco fuel prices

[Jewellbags]

Does anyone use Costco for their fuel ? How does it compare on price and performance ? Considering of become a member

 

[Odd-no-more]

I buy their diesel, it's usually about 8 to 9p a ltr less than local outlets. They only have premium diesel

 

[Clemmo]

As long as you are prepared to join the Costco fuel queue it’s always cheaper.
We have used it no issues.
More often than not the queue is so long we can’t be bothered.

 

[Red Sonja]

At the moment its 10p a litre cheaper than normal diesel. They only do premium diesel which is around 20p a litre dearer. The fuel seems to last longer. The petrol station is fairly empty when the shop is closed but rammed during opening hours

Just go when the warehouse is closed, i then find no queue.

I use it when I can. Fill during the week, don't go there in weekends.
My van does better mpg on costco fuel, and 10p cheaper.

Since the supermarkets and other mainstream garages took the pee a couple of years back, when Costco was upto 20p a litre cheaper. I vowed to never buy from anywhere else. (Other than my red diesel supplier)

Filled up on Tuesday evening after getting the MH serviced at about 17:30, no queue. 17ppl cheaper than the local sainsbugs plain diseasel, and it is premium diseasel at Costco.

Always use Costco fuel, diseasel and petrol. Will plan a route where we pass a Costco fuel station when we need fuel.

On the daily diseasel SUV a full tank buys a litre of Bombay Sapphire gin with the price difference. 2 fill ups pays the annual individual membership fee in the saving vs other fuel outlets.

I have a Nissan Navara, they seem to have a problem with the DPF blocking, I use premium diesel as it has cleaning additives and so far so good. Premium diesel is much cheaper at Costco. It doesn't take too many fill ups to get the £30 approx joining fee back.

My Sprinter Van runs better on Premium Fuel.

Its currently £1.37 at Costco.

December, I queued 50 mins at Oldham at the stupid Junction. I said I would go again, but last couple of times was a short queue.

The only Trouble is, I spent £400 in-Store. Some new lights for our house in Spain that are hard to find and an Air Fryer. Along with boxer shorts, milk, eggs.......

Cheers all

Jewellbags just to add there is a Costco fuel station at the Southampton branch, on the old BAT (British American Tobacco) site. If you are in North Hampshire there is also 1 in Reading just behind the Madjeski stadium..

There is a non fuel Costco at Farnborough

 

[CAB96]

Yes yes yes.

Just don't go in to shop

 

[TwistNShout]

We use Costco if we're driving nearby, not much point making a journey just for fuel even if though the nearest Costco is about 8 miles away. As others have said, they only do Premium diesel but even that is about 10p a litre cheaper than standard diesel our way. It does seem that Reading supermarkets have reduced the price of fuel to be nearer to Costco prices from what I've seen, so the differential may not be as much. Definitely pick your time and day as the queues can be very long.

We saved our yearly membership fee in three months, just in fuel price difference.

The company uses Kirkland Signature Fuel, which according to the website is ‘formulated with powerful deposit control additives that clean your engine and help your vehicle run like new’.

We use the Reading Costco quite a bit to fill the van up. Reading seems to be one of the cheapest for fuel also, which is nice....

Yep not too far from me , I assume there’s enough room to swing a motorhome in . Signing up this week

I work in Trafford Park, not far from the Costco. I'll usually try to take the van in to work if it needs filling up before a trip. (yes, I have added commuting to the insurance).

Farnborough's got a huge car park, no problem for a moho. Shame it doesn't have a fuel station though.

We find the queue moves reasonably quickly as it is quick to just swipe costco card, then insert your debit card all before filling. Then fill and go. I usually do the card bit whilst John still getting out of the drivers seat. It is a bit annoying when people have sat in the queue and then get to their turn and haven’t even got their cards out ready but find wallet from back pocket and start searching through it!
At Avonmouth about 14 fill up points so one round of filling will remove another 14 vehicles from the queue.

At Soton, if you park to shop first, then fuel as it's a straight run. You can enter jut the fuel station, but a bit tighter.

At Reading fuel first before shopping. If it's not busy, normally late evening, you turn left at 1st junction straight into the fuel station. If it's busy the first turn left will be closed by barriers, in which case you take 2nd through the car park with a tight u turn at the end of the car park row, then a further u turn into the fuel station. If your filler is on the nearside go into the first row of pumps, if on offside go to the furthest back row. Those give the easiest exit.

Plenty of room

We always fill up in Southampton before we go anywhere....... if we are going North, we stop at Haydock Park ( 5 miles off M6 ) or if going to France/Spain we just take our chance as we drive to Newhaven for the ferry ( lot better than Rip-Off Brittany, only if you have the time), then we recon fill up again around Poitier, that will then get us down to Spain ( cheaper again ) we always used to stop just over the border at El Campo.... 5 miles south of Irun, if you spent more than 40E you had a voucher for even cheaper fuel..... they have now stopped that and only get cheaper fuel if you have a loyalty card which we obviously don't have

Have used costco Edinburgh for the last six years, its 30 miles from home but gives the diesel honda a good run once every six weeks and always fill up the motorhome on the way south and on the way back to Fife to cover for trips north, its cheaper than shell and BP super grades and keeps the emissions clear.

[Buster30]

Filled up at Derby this morning £1.37 litre

 

[Odd-no-more]

Just filled up in Southampton £1.40 for premium, the local shell £1.47 for regular. There was a time when the saving could be as much as 20p, but for me it's still very much worth it
