Diesel fuel - cash or credit?
For those that drive diesel trucks, I’m sure you’ve noticed gas stations advertising different prices for cash vs. credit. I’ve noted inconsistencies between stations, with some accepting debit cards...

You still get 5 points per dollar spent but now to redeem the points you need 11,800 points to get $100 back. They increased the points needed by 18%. That nets to about 4.1% actual cash back. Very deceptive since they know most people relate points to $.
And I get an additional 5% back using my PenFed Rewards credit card when used at the pumps.
depends on which pen fed card you have. the pen fed I have doesn't give ANY points, just a straight 5% credit each month on fuel purchases swiped at the pump. Just got a bill and still the same 5% credit at the end of the month. Mine doesn't give anything back or point etc. on non fuel or non swipe at the pump purchases.
Also, I've been to many stations that post a "cash" and "credit" price. I always use my credit cards and ALWAYS have been billed the "cash" price. IMHO they do this to get people to pay with cash.
