I don't know about other places, but here in West Los Angeles, there
ain't much but major brand gas. Exceptions are Costco (who makes their
gas I don't know) and a single station called Super Petrol. Everything
else is ARCO, Shell, Chevron, Unocal, Mobil and Exxon.
I usually buy Chevron because it is on the way to work. I quit buying my
occasional tank of Costco when they stopped taking credit cards. (They
still take their own, and AMEX, but my 13 years in banking taught me to
steer clear of AMEX cards!)

What was it that caused you to avoid AMEX? That's about all I use. I
have MC and Visa in case someone doesn't take AMEX, but otherwise it's
my main plastic.

First off, they were alway very slow in processing charge deposits.
Second, two bank employees (as in they know the right questions to ask)
had continuing problems with billing errors while I was there. Third and
most important, could never make up their mind where to send payments
for the traveler's checks. They would tell us to send them to their
Pasadena facility, but they would ALWAYS claim we hadn't paid. If we
sent them to Salt Lake City, they would get credited properly, but they
would send a letter to management telling us to send to Pasadena. This
went on for 5 years. Finally, we were reprimanded by management to send
to Pasadena, so I would get the job each month of having to send them
copies of each and every sale and our remittance so they could fix their
mistakes. It got old in a hurry!
Back before ATMS were everywhere, the travelers checks were a great
product. These days, they have kind of outlived their usefulness.
