Gas Cards

Does anyone have a gas card where a membership to a certain company saves you money? I know Exxon has their smart card. But you have to buy 45 gallons in a month to receive that. Which I fill my 16 gallon tank up maybe twice a month so it's of no use to me.
Just wondering if there's something like this out there besides Maverik's 2 cents off their crap gas.

Sam's Club has a MasterCard that gets you 5% back (every February) on the first $6,000 you spend for gas each year. Unless you buy gas at places like Costco or BJ's, then it is only 1%.

So Shell, Mobil, BP, all the big ones get you 5%.

Why not get a regular credit card that gives you extra cash back when you buy gas?

Exactly.
Also, I earn points at our grocery store (gotta buy groceries either way) and then use their club card at the pump there and save 20 cents off per gallon... PLUS my 5% from my bank mastercard.

better than a credit cart......you go to Wal-Mart and get one of their cards, you just put money on it, them just only use it for gas at their store, here you get 10 cents/gallon off of you use the card

Not really. My credit card give me 5% back on all gas purchases and with the current price of gas it comes out to almost 20 cents per gallon. So you can get a credit card that you can use anywhere and save more money or get a Walmart gift card and be limited to just one company and save less. How is that a better option?

And, I'm not sure I'd trust Walmart gas....
