MOUNT LAUREL, N.J. - Costco’s new gas policy went into effect a few days ago, one in which a person is required to be a Costco member in order to get the discounted gasoline price in New Jersey.

This is the only Costco in the United States where you don’t have to be a member to purchase gas," Mount Laurel solicitor George Morris said.A line at the Mount Laurel Costco, in Burlington County, Wednesday for a good price.
Costco has been pushing to sell gas to members only for the better part of the month. The New Jersey Department of Consumer Affairs announced last week that this is not prohibited.
