As gas prices remain high, there are a few ways for drivers to stretch their dollars while filling up, such as stacking rewards from loyalty programs, memberships, credit cards and apps.
ABC News transportation correspondent Gio Benitez shared a few simple strategies, starting with taking advantage of any gas station loyalty programs. Shell, for example, offers new members 30 cents off per gallon on their third fill-up. Drivers who use the program can also save more over time, with Shell's Platinum members receiving up to 10 cents off per gallon. At BP and Amoco, drivers can save 5 cents per gallon on every fill-up.
Exxon customers earn rewards that can be used on future purchases, receiving 3 cents per gallon on regular gas and 6 cents per gallon on premium, according to Exxon's rewards program. Walmart+ members can save 10 cents per gallon at more than 13,000 gas stations nationwide, including Exxon, Mobil, Walmart and Murphy stations, according to Amazon Prime members can save 10 cents per gallon at participating BP and Amoco stations.
Through the end of May, that discount increases to 20 cents per gallon on Fridays when accounts are linked through Earnify, according toCostco, Sam's Club and BJ's operate their own gas stations at select locations and typically charge less per gallon, though a paid membership is required. And using a store-branded credit card at those stations can sometimes lead to even more savings. Supermarket chains also offer fuel rewards tied to grocery spending.
Kroger shoppers earn one fuel point for every dollar spent, with 100 points equaling 10 cents off per gallon, according to the company's Fuel Points Program. Safeway and Stop & Shop both offer similar programs that allow customers to convert grocery points into gas discounts.
In addition to loyalty programs, some credit cards offer immediate savings or rewards on gas purchases. The PenFed Platinum Rewards Visa Signature Card offers five times points on gas purchases, while the PNC Cash Rewards Visa Card provides 4% cash back at gas stations, both with no annual fee. Drivers should always check what cards they already carry, as many offer gas-related perks or benefits that could be going unused.
Earnify and Upside offer cash back on gas purchases, while GasBuddy and AAA can help drivers locate the lowest prices in their area. What we know about the SoCal man ID'd as suspect in White House Correspondents' Dinner shooting
