Tune out commercials

They advertise cash back on gasoline, which is fine. But the claim of the ad is "I've made about $200 cash back", with no time frame given. The rewards offered in my area appear to range from $0.05 to $0.08 per gallon of fuel. In my car, earning $200 cash back would require close to 125,000 miles, which is how much the typical American drives in 7 or 8 years.

I have a Shell Rewards credit card tied to my Shell Rewards purchases of Shell gasoline and while there is no cash back, there is a reduction of the cost of fuel, most typically it has been 10 cents per gallon.

Every now and then, the discount is higher - running 15 cents per gallon and I don't remember a promotion.

Youngest daughter fueled up on October 20, got a 50 cents per gallon discount. I have no idea what or why, but I know what was on the receipt.

With three drivers and three cars in our family, and ten cents per gallon, it does not take us that many years to reach the $200 savings point.
