I have driven four times this week between Markham and Mississauga. With below-freezing temperatures, I decided to fill up my gas tank, as it was below the half-full mark.
I was driving northbound on Kipling Avenue. Stopped at Rexdale Boulevard, I did a search for a gas station and got this Pioneer gas station. It was north of Rexdale. I needed to do a left turn.
It's funny. I never noticed this gas station until today. I'd see the KFC just south of it. That's it. I'm normally on this street to visit Giant Tiger, Dollarama, or Dollar Tree, or all three!
There was one other customer at this gas station when I arrived. The lighting was excellent and welcoming at 6 pm.
This gas station is special in that there are gas pumps for regular vehicles. If you're a truck or larger, there are gas pumps around the corner from the convenience store. Nice!
At the gas pump, I entered my phone number associated with my Journie points account. I then tapped my credit card and started to fuel. Easy peasy!
You do need to prepay for gas here. If you need assistance, you can go into the convenience store and prepay.
The only downside was that I was standing in a couple of puddles. Thank goodness my sneakers didn't have any cracks or holes in them!
It was straightforward to fuel my car. I got a receipt and all was done.
I didn't need anything from the convenience store. There was a man at the checkout area when I looked at the store as I fuelled.
I learned that I have been passing by this gas station for years without acknowledging its existence. It was nice to finally stop by and check it out.
