Heck just buy it anywhere marked or not still cheaper the minute you cross the line.

I don't know of any places selling dyed premium in Alberta. There is a card lock in Fernie that sells it (open to everybody with a debit or credit card) and right now it is $1.099. When I go on my Costco runs (Lethbridge or Calgary), I fill my jerry cans there with Premium and it is 91. Normally, that is the cheapest I have found. I have been doing this for years and haven't noticed any difference in performance but then again, I'm sort of a meadow muffin and mellow tree rider!

Costco gets top tier fuels, rumour has it from Shell. You won’t go wrong with Costco fuel.

as far as i know, costco is base grade fuel sometimes with gasline antifreeze and that's it... It's not top tier fuel

Does Costco have ethanol in the premium?

Really? It's advertised as Top Tier and they have the Top Tier stickers on their pumps.

Yes, they do at East Hills Costco in Calgary which is the latest Costco here. Price is 112.9
The rest of them don't sell it.

If there is ethanol added, the gas stations have to let the consumer know. There is no information on the premium pumps about added ethanol.

Last year I was told there are 2 locations in Canada that sell diesel, on in GP and I guess they one you mentioned.

Actually all they have to do is put a sticker stating that it MAY contain ethanol. Costco does not buy top tier. They buy volume at the cheapest price from whoever.

Off the costco website
Is Costco Top Tier certified? Yes both grades of gasoline sold at Costco meet and exceed Top Tier requirements. The owner’s manuals provided by the following manufacturers recommend using Top Tier gasoline to maintain optimal engine performance. and efficiency.

BMW, including Mini Cooper and Rolls Royce
General Motors, including Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC
Honda, including Acura
Toyota, including Lexus and Scion
Volkswagen/Audi, including Porsche, Lamborghini and Bentley
Mercedes-Benz, including Smart

In Sask the truck that delivers the fuel to costco comes from the shell refinery, ( asked the trucker)

Summitric · Feb 22, 2019

As long as their fuel meets the octane rating required by manufacturers, they are approved.... They buy from the cheapest deal at whatever refinery they can. Obviously don't have their own refinery. It will never be shell or esso or petro-can grade fuel...as per dispatch

I was out last weekend. Reg at Costco in NW Calgary was 98.9 vs 112.9 here in Salmon Arm. Looks like the cheapest right now is 95.9 in the SE.

Ronaha · Feb 22, 2019

Same in edmonchuckastan 95.9 according to gas buddy Costco and other stations are same.

team dirt · Feb 22, 2019

Marked premium was 114.9 at the squilax racetrack on Wednesday.

adamg · Feb 22, 2019

In Revelstoke, marked premium is 1189 at Big Eddy and 1219 at the public card lock near Big Eddy.
