I am guessing that is no longer the case and of course that kind of invalidates their point in the long run!

Sure it would be great if you could lockin prices for so many gallons, but prepaid gas cards don't work that way. If fuel is $3.55 a gallon or $6.55 a gallon, when the money balance on your card has run out, so has your ability to puchase fuel with the card. I think I would rather keep my options open and try to find the best gas prices. Yes I know, good luck on that one. Why there has never been a case against oil companies for price fixing, I don't know. I’m not so sure about prepaid gas cards.

I think with prepaid cards, we will be able to restrict our self from over using the car and like what you have said from useless use of gas. These days, we need to know how to save and benefit from it. That’s a good idea.

Wouldnt it be great if you could lock in a gas price, like .10$/litre Man the price of gas is just ridiculous though isnt it WOW never really thought about pre-paid gas cards.
