Albertson’s Express

This location is now a Valero, which is new to AZ, but they have a lot of them now.
This is the only station in the area that I know of that has a gauge on their air hose. I’ll pay 75 cents for that! So would you if you ever had a blow-​out due to over-​inflating your tire, lol.

Albertson’s, popular in SoCal, is also everywhere in Arizona. In NorCal, Albertson’s sold 70+ grocery stores, some going to FoodMaxx, and the others giving way to the reincarnation of Lucky’s.
In AZ, Albertson’s is going strong, and the new thing in AZ is the Albertson’s Express. Here on the west side, an Albertson’s anchored strip mall is fronted by Albertson’s Express, a combination gasoline service station with 8 pumps and a convenience store, similar but slgihtly smaller than a Circle K or 7/​11, or actually more like other combinations from Arco and many other Oil companies service/​convenience store stations. This is mainly just your classic combination of Liquor, Drinks, Smokes and Snacks.
It’s on the corner of N Dysart and Indian School, near the McDonald’s. There are others popping up in the outer edges of the Valley of the Sun.
Safeway is doing the same thing in the newer outlying areas of California suburbs.
By the way, gasoline is currently 0.50 $ cheaper per gallon here than in NorCal, a large percentage owing to less state taxes (In California, a large part of the gas taxes goes to keep California roads the best in the nation) and another part to the cleaner, more expensive fuel mixture required in California. Because of California’s strictest in the nation pollution requirements, with catalytic converters and cleaner fuels, the smog in the Los Angeles Basin is less that it was in the 1960’s, even though there are a lot more cars and people.
