Tip: Earn Petro-Points on every purchase. You get points towards fuel-savings cards, merchandise, and more.
I was driving home from a concert. I took Dundas Street East eastbound and turned left to travel eastbound along Kingston Road.
I was topped at the lights at Woodbine Avenue. Ahead and on the left what this Petro-Canada gas station. Gas was at 115.8 cents a litre. It was such a great price, considering that it was at 120.9 cents a litre heading to the concert.
My car needed gas. It was perfect to get fuel here.
I grew up knowing this gas station as Sunoco. When Petro-Canada bought out Sunoco years ago, the brand conversion took place.
This gas station is across from St. John's Norway Cemetery. The Beaches used to have a lot more gas stations when I grew up in the neighbourhood, including a Texaco (there's a blast from the past!) on the same block where I lived.
These days, the total number of gas stations in the Beaches is two:
- This gas station
- The Petro-Canada at Kingston Road and Blantyre Avenue
I safely made a left turn, followed by a right turn into the gas station. I had to circle around to get to a gas pump that worked with my car's gas cap on the driver's side.
One of the two gas pumps in this row was out of service. The one that I used worked like a charm.
I inserted my Petro-Points card, followed by my fuel-savings card. I then tapped my credit card to pay at the pump. I then fuelled handsfree.
I threw out an empty drink bottle. The pump area was clean.
This gas station has a convenience store. An RBC ATM was inside. It was doing a good deal of business at roughly 10:30 pm.
I had a decent experience fuelling here. I don't know why I had never stopped by. I will when my car needs gas again and I'm in my old neighbourhood.
