COSTCO no longer wants motorhomes in gas lines?

I've never even seen a Costco with a gas station, so it doesn't bother me. Granted, I've only ever seen 1 Costco.

I don't believe I would ever use the words Costco and short-sighted in the same sentence.

I think Real Estate is expensive and they don't want to buy more of it then is absolutely required.

Good points both.

I suspect that the "real estate" people designing the parking lot are NOT the same people who are responsible for the main business plan inside the store.

Years ago my buddy and I went on a trip with our daughters and his girl friend. We each had an extended cab pu with a camper and I was towing a 16' boat, so I was blocking a whole island. I filled front and rear tanks on the truck and the 6 gallon tank in the boat. I thought I'd be nice and free up 3 pumps so I pulled my truck away from the island. As I did so, the cashier inside the store started yelling that guy's taking off. My daughter and my buddy's girlfriend both started saying, "no, this is his daughter, he's not leaving"... in a panic, the cashier hit some button that cleared the pumps I'd used. When I went inside to pay she couldn't tell how much I'd pumped. The manager was quite disappointed that I was actually there to pay, apparently it would have been easier for him to call 911 and report it as a gas theft, and it was quite a job for them to recreate how much I owed. Now adays, I don't worry about blocking pumps.

While fueling my home at Sam's Club yesterday I was told by someone............

My neighbor told me the same thing.
Said he heard it from his former brother-in-law's third cousin's wife's knitting group just last week..:R

BTW - kinda makes you wonder how he knows.......her, huh?

I haven't really followed this thread but my thought is this, since you're paying an annual membership fee you should be eligible for all member benefits. If Costco doesn't have the facilities to fuel your RV they should reimburse you the difference when you fill up somewhere near by. Now if they want to wave the membership fee...

I don't believe that's what the OP said.

Uh-huh.

"I was told by the guy that told me that a COSTCO employee told him that...."

I was told by the guy who owed money to the guy who eats lunch next to the barber shop that the guy who first told the guy about it that he was trying to just have fun with the fourth guy to hear it.
