These gas stations are right next to each other but they have vastly different prices for gas. Does anyone know the reason for this?

They set their own prices, so if one wants to undercut the other to pull more people in, they can. One also has a membership program for discounts, the other doesn’t
Emsi offers no extra discounts on top.
Circle K has -0.07€ discount on fuel if you regularly refuel there, as well as some discounts time from time to encourage refueling there, one of those discounts is active currently during Saturdays and Sundays, -0.1€ per liter. They also frequently offer 50% off washing services etc, so it’s more like a bundle thing, pay a bit more for fuel but you might save on some other things as long as you’re “loyal client”.

circle k has 0.10euro discount Friday-Sunday
Long story short. Cirkle K positions themselves as a premium gas station, targetting less price sensitive consumers who value cleanliness, food, coffee and etc.
At Cirkle K you’re not just buying gas – you’re buying an experience.
I would surely choose Circle K. They have loyalty discounts which more or less even out the price.
Bonus points: CircleK team doesnt send out cringe rapey sexist sms jokes to their clients like Emsi did some years ago.
