" I have been boycotting them for years, but then again, I don't think we have any Citgo stations in this area. "

To the best of my recollection, I've never bought CITGO gas in my life.

Do I now have to go to my local CITGO station and buy some so I can *stop* buying from them to participate in the boycott??

Just wondering.....

Just pull up to the pump and sit there for 30 seconds, then drive away. That should be sufficient.

Hi Ike.

At least as of a few years ago there were more Citgo affiliated stations in the United States than any other retailer of ANY type. In other words more Citgo stations than Subways or McDonalds or WalMarts.

Usually Citgo stations tie onto other businesses, especially convenience stores. So you might see a 7-11 sign and under it a large Citgo sign. Or a Grabit-n-Go sign with a large Citgo sign under it.

The point is that while there might be some areas of the country where you can't find Citgo, in most of the country quite the opposite is true.

What you can do is fill up your tank elsewhere, then go to a Citgo self-serve and pump less than one dollar of gasoline into your tank (perfectly legal to do).

It would cost Citgo more to process your payment and if enough people did that, they'd go bankrupt.
