Good Sam Swipe&Save card

Has anyone used the GS Swipe&Save card at the diesel truck pumps at either Flying J or Pilot Travel Centers in order to get the great 3 cents per gallon discount? Does the clerk give the discount when you leave a credit card with them?

Just renewed my membership and got the ad showing their new card so I haven't got one yet to try using it.
  • We use gas buddy and usually find that other stations in the area have a much lower price than the truck stops. For this reason, we purchase our gas elsewhere and do not use the GS discount for gas.
  • Truck Stop prices are high even after the discounts. I primarily fill with no problems at other stations usually several cents lower per gallon than the after discount truck stop price. Benefit of having the extra in-bed fuel tank.

  • So can you first swipe the GS, then pay with the 3%ter?

    That works OK.
    Or it did work last fall for me when using the GS swipe and 5% Discover Card discount.

    I can get away with that at Kroger just south of Myrtle Beach on business 17.

    Speaking of kickback/discount, PenFed was still going with the 5% last time I checked.
