There is a game we play at work - called gas cheap...
Safeway gives you 10 cents off per gallon for each $100 you spend there. But, right now they are running a summer long promo that gives you 5x points for gift card purchases. Last week I needed something from Lowes and something from Amazon - I bought a $50 Lowes gift card and a $50 Amazon card from Safeway - earning me 50 cents per gallon off my gas. I can buy the gift cards with a credit card to get points - and I can still buy my gas with my credit card and not pay extra. We all do it at work - pretty good deal. And for my daily driver - Safeway gas is just fine. And I am like Hugh - just pay the card off every month.
Oh - regular, last I saw, was $3.36 here....
