We can't emphasize this enough!
Choose a gas station that accepts your Visa or MasterCard.
Several of these cards will give you a 3% rebate on gasoline purchases and have no annual fee.
At least one card will even give you a 6% rebate for a 90 day promotional period.
That's over 13 cents a gallon at today's prices.
If you're not using these cards you're THROWING MONEY AWAY!
We like the Chase PerfectCard™ MasterCard®.
