How much of a discount are you getting? At the local Pilot here in Ft. Myers, they want $3.099/gallon for diesel. Everywhere else it's $2.699 - $2.799.

The only time I buy fuel from them is if I spend a night in their yard. Other then that, I can almost always save at least $.30 per gallon. I figure by the time I need six new tires for my DP, I'll have paid for them by avoiding Flying J / Loves.
As for the hold, just go inside and tell them how much you want to spend. Even if you don't know, let's say you tell them 75 gal and only use 70 gal, they'll credit the rest back to the card and there won't be any hold.
