Arco Gas Station La Mesa

First review is spot on. This ARCO always has the lowest prices in the area, but the lines can be a little long at times. Besides debit cards and cash, one can also use BP/​ARCO gift cards.

For many years – as far back as I have been buying gas in East County – this has been the cheapest gas station in the area. We use to call it «the station next to George Joe“s» (Chinese Restaurant that is now Charcoal House). Negative? – they don’t take regular credit cards, just debit cards and cash. But if you check the website SanDiegoGas
–
it is almost always the cheapest place. It’s right next to Grossmont High School and is often crowded due to the cheaper prices. I can’t comment on the employees since I pay outside.
