- grzm 9y agoWow. I wonder what economic factors are at play here.
- niftich 9y agoThe Burlingame A&A is notorious for being the one of the cheapest -- if not the cheapest -- places to fill up between SF and SV. In this case, it's likely that the Chevron literally across the street just decided it's not worth playing that game, hoping instead to appeal to the crowd who wonders if the cheap competitor is actually up to par. The fact that the Chevron gets any business at all seems to validate this strategy at first blush.
- hkmurakami 9y agoAlso the Chevron at grant and el Camino is $3 when the shell a block away on grant is $3.60 or so. The Chevron is one of the highest trafficked gas stations in SV and operates on volume. The shell can't play that game so charges a pronoun to grocery shoppers.
