Friends, do not make the mistake I made. If there is a line…read moreof cars at the car wash, just keep driving. Move on. It isn't worth it. There's no way to leave the line if someone gets in behind you. Each car takes 5-ish minutes, but the line holds about 10 cars. So you could be waiting upwards of an hour to get a 5 minute car wash. Kind of like me, today. Live and learn! Oh also, it says you can pay at the car wash instead of going inside to buy a car wash ticket. When I went, there was a sign on the machine that said it was broken. So people had waited like an hour to for a car wash, then had to ditch their cars and go in to buy a ticket. Which made everything slower. Just...beware.

Because of the road layout, it's not possible to turn into this station when heading northbound on Thickson road, you have to turn left onto Winchester and then left again fighting through the traffic rushing to stop at the inevitable red light.

On Saturday, after spending a fun day with my best friend in Oshawa, we called it a day. I was driving up Ritson Road North to try out the free 407 segment between Brock Road in Pickering, and highway 35/115 in Clarington. Why not enjoy a faster drive home for free, right? It was raining. I spotted a Circle K sign. The corner didn't look like it had a gas station. Oh, wow. It's a standalone Circle K! My second thought: It must have hot dogs and roller foods! It's the small things that make my life complete. I made a right turn onto Coldstream Drive into the parking lot. I backed into a spot in front of the store and walked in. This store gets full marks for customer service alone. I walked in and the man at the checkout on my left welcomed me by asking how I was doing. Wow! The staff at a Circle K that I used to frequent the most in Scarborough didn't care about how folks were doing. I was here to redeem my instant prize from the Rock Paper Prizes game. I was looking at AriZona teas. I grabbed a green tea. Done! I also saw a special on Bai drinks. Three of them were going for $6. I hadn't had any in ages, so I got three. I did pass by the roller hot foods to get to the AriZona drinks in the fridge. It had all my favourites. Hot dogs. Tornadoes filled with cheesy pepper jack. Buffalo chicken RollerBites. Cheddar and jalapeno cheddar sausages. I was in heaven! Sadly, I didn't get any roller items. I had just had dinner and was stuffed. Next time! This store was busy at around 7:30 pm on a Saturday. I lined up to pay. I redeemed my AriZona prize. I then paid for my Bai drinks. I tapped and was good. I thanked the man and left with my drinks. Because this store is a standalone Circle K, you won't be able to earn PC Optimum points. You would need a Circle K attached to an Esso gas station to be able to collect PC Optimum points. I've consumed all my Bai drinks since purchasing them. I got two of the raspberry lemon lime and one mango. They were yummy. This store didn't have my usual coconut. I hope that it still exists. I love AriZona green tea. The size was perfect. It was so cold when I drank it at home. I loved finding this store and getting drinks here. I look forward to getting a hot dog or whatever roller snack is available next time I'm in the neighbourhood. (264)

The lines are shorter than they appear but about half the stations are operational. It looks like they are working to get crew to fix it. When you go into the gas station you have to line up on the street so you have a massive line from both sides of the road with people waiting to get in, spilling over on municipally owned road. I did notice you have to drive in from Adelaide, Bond has a no left turn sign. Costco needs to do more and regulate the incoming cars line ups on their property. I went in from an alternate entrance had to get in line and realized if I try to jam myself in the line I will block the entrance altogether, a gentleman was courteous to allow me to jump the line. Thank you sir, I will do that courteous for the next person. When you drive into the station there are about three open in each section and you have to go up a slight ramp. If you are driving manual transmission make sure you back off til clear in case you roll back. Costco is usually a more elite experience. Perhaps they should have remained closed until they were really ready and open for business at the gas station. I visited this location 2017 summer and again 2018 autumn no change still a construction zone. Please finish construction, I would like to update my review in 2019. Opens at 6:30am.

By 10:40 he was cutting me off every second to tell me what they didn't have. As I only was to get $2 water and $4.99 cheetos. I advised him I am vegetarian. Long story short? I ended up going to the store after 12:40 when the 2 items were delivered. 2 HOURS LATER FOR 2 ITEMS TOTALLING 6.99 OF 26.01. Sideen declined to give a refund, offer replacements beyond meat, candies and ice cream...even as I went to the store and returned the 2 water and cheetos. A thief is a thief. Bad service and fraudulent practice is just that.

I hand the two tickets to the clerk (A young girl with long brown hair, name withheld,) and asked her to check them as I knew one had won, but forgot which one. She ran my regular numbers through and handed them back and when I ask for the other tickets she looked at me like I was nuts. I said yes I handed you two tickets and she said "Oh, no", so after a couple asks and her pretending to look, I said well I see you have security cameras perhaps I can come around the counter and see if you dropped them on the floor. Magically she said, "Oh, these"? Two tickets she had torn and tossed in the trash. This has happened more than once and I've reported them to the OLG. Beware people, check your tickets elsewhere.

The prices are very good, but you have to go inside and pay. This is the only place in town to get kerosene at a reasonable price, and they also sell dyed diesel.

Overall, a decent place to purchase your gas but don't expect anything much.
