At Publix supermarkets in Florida, you can buy a $50 Shell gift card for $40 during fairly frequent promotions, if you also buy $50 worth of other stuff. I do that frequently; at the moment I have four gas cards waiting to be used. $50 worth of groceries is about what I'd have bought anyway. The promotion also applies to some other brands of gas card -- Marathon comes to mind.
That's 20% off. So, if Shell gas is $2.00, I'm getting it for $1.60. Not bad compared to this time last year.
