Costco is Top Tier, now. Also, why do you feel you no longer need premium?

Shell is the most convenient Top Tier gas for me as well. Especially with 20 cents off for premium on Tuesdays along with Giant Food discounts.

Costco - Top Tier and lowest price in their local area. I do a lot of long road trips and Costco is in most states now. Also they are generally near interstates. Good place for pit stop for the car and me. Next choice is Shell.

Thank you for posting this, I have looked everywhere for 93 locally and just found out the new Walmart is the only place that has it in town...

I do my best to keep the inside of my engines clean. I try to stay away from fuel that isn’t top tier unless I absolutely don’t have a choice. I also start using Regane or Techron once I reach 15,000 miles or so.

I use Costco premium fuel in my Corvette. It is a top tier gasoline and is less expensive than any other station around here.

That's the way Shell in MD works.
I don't know if Shells in other states work that way or not.
