I was in the Leaside area running an errand. I was slowly heading northbound to continue my usual Saturday set of errands when my low gas light went on.
I used to fill up my car weekly. Since I haven't done my usual commute for work between Markham and Mississauga, I couldn't tell you when I last filled up my car's gas tank!
Anyway, I remembered this Petro-Canada at Leslie and York Mills, and decided to pull in. It was pretty quiet on a Saturday afternoon, just before 2 pm. There was a sportscar at the pump across from the one I ultimately pulled up to.
Gas was at 94.9 cents a litre. It has gone up a bit since I last filled up, but it's still pretty low under the circumstances. I used my 407 ETR card to get a discount on the price and my Petro-Points card to continue collecting points towards free stuff.
I paid using a credit card at the pump. Everything went well.
This station was clean. There was plenty of paper towel, which I used while touching the gas pump. It also has that lever that you can use to have the pump do all the work and you can rest your hand.
This gas station has a convenience store. I didn't need anything, so I didn't go inside. It was doing pretty swift business. By the time I had left the place, there were four cars in front of it.
There is also a car wash. I typically don't use them (I like the wand ones where I can get a workout and avoid swirl scratches on the paint), so I can't comment on it.
I liked coming here. It was bright and clean. It also got me on my way to my next errand!
