Bought a bunch of stuff I do NOT need. Looks like an $8 theme today, lol. See pictures. As this is a late review, I just left the Carson City, NV Costco and they have not started marking down their stuff yet. But you already know that because you are following :) Decent selection of micro brews, but not really local, so I skipped. Atmosphere - Overall consistent. Nothing too different that stood out. They have most, if not all the departments - Tire, food court, gas station, pharmacy, optical, hearing aids, etc. I should have checked their gas prices... Service - Self service. Price - Reasonable, inexpensive. But I always end up buying stuff I do NOT need..... So for me it was a little wasteful. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success at this location since 1994.

California 1 most certainly qualifies as a major highway - they built the damn Golden Gate Bridge just to connect two sections of it! I've never encountered another gas station that does this. I guess I'm done with Valero, and not just the one in Santa Cruz. If they're in violation of this law, they're probably in violation of others. Who knows? Maybe their gas is illegal too, just like their gas station. I can't take that chance, so I won't be putting it in my truck anymore.

For the most part as consumers, we look at stopping for gas at the gas station has a pretty basic…read morefunction of our daily commute's. Some gas stations offer conveniences such as carwashes, window washing items, or just basic pump and go. When I am traveling, my preference is always to stop at a gas station that offers something more than pumping and go. I prefer having a convenience store attached to the gas station in case I'm looking for something to drink, some gum or perhaps even a quick snack. Cleanliness is always a huge plus. This particular Valero's has a convenience store, and unhappy people that work there. We stopped to get gas, and walked inside to pay and grab a quick drink. The cashier was extremely unpleasant, and it was very clear not only was unhappy to be there, but he was clearly inconvenienced by us making a purchase. After we paid, we went out to pump the gas and the pump was not even ready for us to use. We had to walk back inside, and ask for him to turn the pump on. Literally standing there waiting for what felt like eternity, but was probably about two minutes or so until he decided to turn the pump on. No one else was there, so it should not of been an issue. The station itself is pretty basic, and snacks were at a minimum. The station was also fairly clean, as far as gas stations go. My issue at the station, was the attitude that the attendant had, and why it seems to go unnoticed. Clearly, he has worked there for a while and it doesn't seem to be an issue for management. As expensive as gasoline is, I certainly plan on going somewhere else, rather than spending my money in a place where it doesn't seem to be welcomed

Compared to most gas stations this close (and convenient) to the highway, Sav-On Gas is a steal. Ocean Street also has quite a few restaurants and fast-food places, so if you can turn your quick stop for gas into a full refueling stop if you so choose. My pump was a bit slow, but it wasn't terrible. The man working here when I came was efficient, but he didn't say much.
