Do you mean put $1 on the gift card and the rest on Advantage pay?

I usually pay at the pump so I’m not sure. if you use Advantage Pay at the pump, it asks you if you want to use Advantage Pay. If you say yes, it takes the 30c off and you don’t get the option to add another payment type. Not sure if that is the case for prepaid.

If you want to max your savings, use the gift card for other stuff and Advantage pay for gas

On that note, please remember this was not an official opening. They had 5 people on staff and were packed shoulder to shoulder this morning. Please be kind and patient as they get back on their feet. Shout out to the table that left because they didn’t want to wait for the check and didn’t leave enough cash to cover their bill. Not cool.

I prepaid. So it stopped before I could use Advantage Pay, but I just wanted to know if anyone else experienced this. Like I would have put $1 on it with Advantage Pay if it would have taken the 30 cents off the whole thing. I just didn't think about doing that at the time.

I prepaid $25 and $4 in perks. I didn't save the 30 cents because I didn't use the card to pay for any of it. I'm just wondering if I would have put a $1 on there and used Advantage Pay if it would take off the 30 cents for just that 1 gallon or the whole thing.

I went to the one on 65 the other day. I took my son. The stickies thread made me interested since I hadn't been there since the mid 00's.

It exactly as bland and average as I remember it being. My son loved it though. It does have a certain charm, though maybe I am just being a romantic.

The cashier's at geagle told me I have to go online to register my advantage card to claim my gas points. Still works for store purchases, but not gas unless registered.

Edit. Oh yeah, you need to scan your advantage card prior to pumping. Screen should prompt you?

Isn’t it tied to your bank account? Hence if you didn’t use it, how would you get the discount?

So I would test your theory and let us know how it works

If you use Advantage Pay it will pay for all of the gas, and apply the 30c (or whatever the current discount is) to all of the gallons.

I think that answers the question.

The massive payroll and valuation bubble in the MLB over the past fifteen years has been fueled by RSN fees being paid by cable subscribers, most of whom don't even care about sports but have to pay the fees anyway to get the cable package they want.
 
MLB has essentially been making money off every paying cable subscriber in America whether they watch baseball or not. The bubble was due to pop eventually.
