Canadian Tire gas Advantage Mastercard.  Gives me $0.08  to $0.10 a liter off depending on how much I charge on the card.
Lowers the premium price to that of regular and makes me feel better.

Shell easyPAY linked to my PC MasterCard and Air Miles Card. Get PC Points applicable to free groceries at Loblaws and merchandise. Works out to about a 1-percent discount. Used to be 2-percent. Beauty is it's easier to collect on the free groceries than from a grossly overpriced "rewards" catalog. Everybody has to eat!

The Shell easyPAY key fob is supposed to let you pay at the pump. Doesn't work out that way if you need a receipt. Many station operators don't replace the receipt paper roll in the pump. They want you to collect your receipt inside the site variety store where you might be tempted to make an additional purchase. It's a royal PIA. Looking at other reward systems.

Even more annoying to some ( not me)  the Stupid Easy pay does not work in the USA.   If the credit cars attached works in the USA so should the Easypay but nooooooooooooooooo.

We now buy most of our gas at Costco, 4 to 5 cents cheaper then all the others.  Pay with a Costco/Amex and then get up to 2% rebate on the gas and everything else bought at Costco and on the Amex.
I got tired of the Air Miles racket.

We've been gassing up at Costco now too.  The price difference ranges from 4 to 10 cents compared to all others.
