Gas Cards - Great Way To Stick It To The Oil Companies

Gas Cards - Great Way To Stick It To The Oil Companies - And Get
Cash Back Too!

By: Frederick Musser

If you're like most people you have a credit card or two and you
probably use it on a regular basis. Paying it off every month to
avoid the interest charges, right? ;-)

Do you purchase gas with a credit card? Most gas stations now
have the pay at the pump option making it quick and easy to
stop, pump and pay.

The Key To Gas Card Savings At The Pump . . . . .

Use a gas rewards card.

Use it on a gas saving days - Many gas stations offer a discount
on certain days with a fill up, this adds to even more savings
for you. One gas station where I live offers $.06 off per gallon
on tuesday's. Combine that with a 5% - 10% gas card savings -
Nice savings!

Find other items on sale at the gas station - Many gas stations
run good sales on various grocery type items, why not pick them
up while your there to save even more (if you use the item
anyway).

After you fill up, shut the pump down, pull the trigger and tip
the hose up -There is gas left in the hose. You are paying for
it -get it all.

Fill-up the gas tank in the morning. Some experts say a driver
will get a little more gasoline per gallon if the gas tank is
filled when temperatures are cooler. Over time, the extra fuel
adds up.

Choosing The Gas Card That Is Right For You . . . . .

There are many types of cards to choose from. A type of card
issued by Visa or Mastercard through major banks offers gas
rebates at any gas station along with other benefits. For
example, not only do they offer 5% cash back on purchase at gas
stations, supermarkets, and drug stores, but they also gives you
1% cash back on all other purchases.

Another type of gas reward card is specific to a particular
chain of gas stations. For example, some gas chain specific
cards let you earn a discount of 5% on all of their
participating location purchases and also can be used anywhere
Visa cards are accepted. Cards like this from the SpeedWay and
Marathon gas station chains are great ways for saving on your
gas purchases.

Closing Notes . . . . .

Many of you have read my other articles and are probably
wandering just why I am writing about gas savings when I am a
heavy supporter of e85 Flex Fuel Vehicles.

I understand that not everyone has access to e85 or can go out
and get a new Flex Fuel Vehicle, so the next best thing is to
inform people as to how to save gas and "Stick It To The Oil
Companies - While Getting Cash Back Too!"
