Nothing around here in Burnaby.
Port Coquitlam is maybe the closest Costco to Burnaby other than the one in Burnaby. That's the only Costco in the area with a gas station other than Abbotsford.

We don't have Costco gas here in Metro Vancouver (at least in the parts I frequent). So I'm mostly stuck with Chevron and Shell anyways (87). I may consider settling with 89.

That is true, Shell offers only 87, 91, and 93. Chevron offers 87, 89, 91, and 94.89 is ridiculously expensive. It’s so unpopular Shell doesn’t even have it anymore, dumping it for 93 about 18 months ago. Why pay 16-18 c/L more than 87, when 91 is 20-21 cents more?
Living up in Casper, WY I can remember lower than 87 octane at Sinclair fuel station. Think it was 85-86. Love that high altitude. I always run some premium which is 90 when I am headed towards sea level.
Costco is 10% ethanol, says right at the pumps.. I'd avoid it personallyBP withdrew from the Top Tier program. I'm not sure if Sunoco is back. OK - Sunoco is back.

While Costco is in the program, their method of doing so is far different than anyone else. Nearly everyone else adds the detergent at the fuel depot where there should be plenty of time for the detergent to mix evenly by the time it's delivered to the gas station. Costco's method is to take an EPA minimum generic detergent at the fuel depot (required by regulations) but then they meter their own detergent upon delivery at Costco gas stations. My primary concern would be how well mixed it is since I've never seen them stop customers from pumping gas during fuel deliveries. But at the very least it would meet the EPA minimum since they have fully EPA compliant fuel coming out of tankers.
