[QUOTE="YFCvii, post: 196131, member: 3252"] Money-sense quick math X1 ... For a full single tank of gas one would save up to 75 cents to $1.00 for every penny per litre saved at the pump. Yup ... agreed ... perhaps no big deal. Math with a multiplier ... When viewed at with many single fuel stops over a year’s timeframe ... I get an annual statement from COOP and it tells me I purchased 4000 litres for all my daily drivers and corvettes in 2019. Then COOP rebates 8 cents per litre = $320.00 and after an equity deduction (which I can cash in) and income tax withholding, I get a cheque for $230.00 which equates to about 3 full tanks of complimentary fuel and all I gotta do is just enter my no-annual-fee member number at the pump and that’s it. If I was getting a 10cent discount immediately at pump every fill over the year, it equates to an extra complimentary tank full, Hopefully a simple explanation of the penny saved at the pump. The 91/94 ethanol/no ethanol is the other side of the discussion too. All beat to death with a bunch of corvette owners doing whatever they do (or don’t care about) for miles of smiles. With the help of Gas Buddy I am able to quickly find that my 8 cent rebate at the COOP ... will at least save me the time spent in the Costco lineup. I sometimes notice people driving by this COOP looking at us filling up and likely thinking how stupid we are with it 5 cents cheaper up the road. All cool with what others do ... just thought I’d share my observation - not an attempt to advocate ... as saving money is what has allowed me to buy a Corvette and continuing to find savings is what allows me to keep it in the tougher times like now (along with stacking the potential of savings benefits by using Scotia GM, RBC Westjet or an Amex Airmiles Credit Card). 😁👍🏻 [ATTACH type="full" alt="CC99D730-A948-4712-8D12-3DF4F6E2C13C.jpeg"]36727[/ATTACH] (in YYC today ... nice prices 👍🏻) If away from home in my Corvette, I will use any premium 91/94 fuel and prefer ethanol free.
