Gas price had hiked many years ago. It’s been up and down a little, but it seems not to go back to the price from decades ago. I understand people want to complain about the price. However, complaining doesn’t lead to any solutions. If you want to save money on gas, you can do that by using one or more gas station rewards programs.

Conclusion
Please note that these are not the whole list of gas station rewards programs. Many rewards programs have additional ways to earn rewards such as linking grocery loyalty programs. And, they are most likely geographically limited offers. Some of them can combine earned rewards with gas stations rewards programs, and some can’t. You need to use them separately.

You will never miss an opportunity of earning rewards as long as you have a smartphone installed these apps.
