Anyone Cancelling Truck Camper Trips Due to Fuel Prices?
Please, no political comments. We have a 5,000 mile trip planned with reservations made, but we are reconsidering due to fuel prices. 60 cents per mile for diesel is pretty bad.

Yesterday the Shell station on the beach where I usually buy gas was 24 cents per gallon cash back with the Upside app. :CRetiredRealtorRick wrote:Thank you!ReneeG wrote:Get the Upside app. Locally I have never gotten less than 14 cents per gallon back. Has been as high as 32 cents. Check it out. Our adult son got us hooked up with it just a few months ago, and the cash adds up quickly.
One way to save is to use your gas CC. Sinclair gives you .10 off per gallon using the card and Chevron gives you .05 off per gallon and .02 credit on your overall bill. You can see that we always use Sinclair right now.
Noticed the bonus amounts change several times a day. There's only 5 or 6 convenience stores that currently participate in Upside in our area (all the same chain). Right now, one store is offering a .31 bonus for every gal of diesel. They're currently charging $5.00 for diesel, so net is $4.69---not bad. FWIW, a nearby Pilot Travel Center along the freeway is currently charging $5.55 for diesel.
