Last Wednesday, I was heading home after a long day at work, followed by an enjoyable time in the Ossington-Bloor area. I took the slower route home by driving along Bloor-Danforth.
My car's gas light went on. I had 22 km left of driving fun before my car's gas tank was completely empty.
I had a coupon for $2 off a minimum 30 L fill-up. I definitely wasn't worried about hitting this minimum. The challenge is finding an Esso gas station that allows filling up without prepaying. Most pumps force you to pay at the pump or you have to walk into the Circle K to pay in advance.
I have been to the Circle K on the southeast corner for Victoria Park and Danforth. It was my first time visiting the Esso that complements this convenience store.
It was pretty busy at 7:30 pm. I had no problem finding an available gas pump.
I was ecstatic that I could pump gas without prepaying. I'd then go into the store to redeem my coupon and pay for my gas purchase.
I had just finished a drink. I threw it into the trash receptacle before filling my car up with gas. The area around this gas pump was nicely lit and clean.
I headed into the Circle K to pay for my gas purchase. Staff here are always nice. It was the case during this visit. I redeemed my coupon. I then had my PC Optimum barcode scanned, followed by tapping my credit card to pay.
It was a smooth transaction. I thanked the man, grabbed my receipt, and headed back to my car to head home.
This gas station has a car wash. It had quite a steady following when I was here.
It's a decent Esso station. I'm glad that I dropped by to fill my car up when it needed gas.
