Save 4 ¢ per gallon

    If the price of gas is from $1.599 to $1.799, you save 4 cents per gallong with your 3% rebate! Seen at the gas pump in San Jose, California in August 2006, where prices are way above $1.80/gallon.

      $1.599?! I thought the US gas prices were above the $3 mark in many places? We pay average $0.99/L (Cdn) for plain unleaded which when compared to $1.59/gal (US) means we're getting screwed up here... (3.785 L in a gallon)

      We are paying around $3 per gallon here in Arizona.

      The silly $1.59/gallon is why I took this photo. this advertisement is recent so I have no clue why these marketing geniuses went with those numbers. Other numbers on the wheel went up to about $3.50/gallon. We're running about $3/gallon in the San Francisco Bay Area right now.

      LOL! I had this ALL WRONG. I thought that you could spin the wheel to DETERMINE the gas price ... you know, some sort of gimmick to get people to sign up for the card. I'm a fool for dreaming. Maybe I'm just a fool. -Gary

      That's how I understood it at first also, Gary. I fiddled with it while pumping gas and finally figured out that it's a rebate calculator.

      Great capture. $1.59/gal is history in the USA.
