Getting Pumped (8/16/00)
FULL STORY:
The Blue Priceline for Gasoline Card is waiving the $3 monthly processing fee.
More than one million U.S. consumers have signed up for the program and more
than 5,000 gas retailers nationwide are now participating. In July, the first
250,000 charter customers priced over 6 million gallons of gasoline at an
average savings of 12 cents a gallon off the pump price. Priceline says it has
mailed cards to all 1.2 million charter customers. Priceline for Gasoline
allows customers to name their own price per gallon and fill up at a gas
station selected by Priceline from the customer's list of favorites.
Additionally, while all retailers get the full pump price from customers using
the blue Priceline Gasoline Card, many gas stations pay Priceline for Gasoline
a marketing fee to attract additional customers. Priceline for Gasoline is
currently available in 46 of the 48 continental United States. Priceline for
Gasoline is not available in New Jersey and Missouri because of state
regulations. For more information visit
