Howdy!,

I buy Gas at a Shell Gas Station when I have enought Kroger Gas Points
to get the Ten Cent Discount.

The Price on the Electric Sign at a Circle K Gas Stations changed SIx Cents
from Credit to another word (I think called EZ-Pay) that was Six Cents less.

I went inside to pre-pay for some Gasoline and walked out to the car to
put the Gas in the tank.

I noticed the Price on the Pump was the higher Credit price, so I went
back inside and told someone about the higher price and was told Circle K
has their own refinery now and they don't sell Shell Gasoline anymore.

To get the lower price I have to use a Circle K EZ-Pay Card and then asked
Me if I wanted to buy one.

I said No, and asked for the money back because I didn't want to pay the
same price that people who buy their Gas with a Credit Card is charged.

I remember years ago being told by someone at a store that the Charge Card
Companies give the store Six Cents less than the price on the receipt when
they turned the receipts in to the Company(s).

That Station used to be a Shell Gas Staton and still has the same color
markings as the Shell Stations use, Mostly Yellow and a Red Stripe.

In My area some of the Marathon Gas Stations have a Circle K Sign, those
Stations are colored Blue though.
