Outside Raleigh BJ’s Wholesale and Costco Discount Club (go figure?), BJ’s runs a gas station with special member pricing. There are lines and at first glance you’d think there’s a gas shortage and gas run in Raleigh. But then you see the member prices and you understand why there are lines. The prices I saw were $1.79 per gallon compared to $1.94 per gallon on regular gas in other Raleigh gas stations on the same day.  Fifteen cents savings a gallon is apparently compelling enough for folks to sit in line. And they probably drove out of there way to save a few dollars. These days, a good challenge is to see if you can get out of shopping for under a certain dollar amount. It’s kinda like a little game to play against yourself or the store if you wanna think of it that way.
