    Costco claim to offer free NITROGEN air(not the regular air), which is better than the air u get from the gas stations. NITROGEN is lighter and more inert.. and hence the car is lighter (more mileage), and doesn't leak easily.

    About the Pizza and Food in Costco
    One tip -- all the eateries are cash only places so make sure you have change before you stand in the line as its a 30 minute wait usually
