Oooooooh, Habit Burger? I am a big In-N-Out fan of course, but the Habit's fries are much better than INO's!

Gas is usually about a dime a gallon cheaper than surrounding areas. Significant if you fill up often or with big tanks (RVs, Trucks, etc.). However, I would say that Buc-ee's tends to beat Costco by a nickel in my casual observational experience. If you're frugal or still working and commuting, it can be significant over time. In my working life I was filling up 2x/week. Costco represented a $150/month savings. That was nearly $2000 a year! Well worth the cost of membership before I even walked in the door.
