If you are like many people, your eyes glaze over as you fill up your gas tank. Even when gas prices are low, it still costs and arm and a leg to fill up your gas tank. You’ve probably thought about how to get free gas, but believe it to be impossible.
There are a lot of gas apps out there, but my favorite way to get free gas is to use the Upside app. Simply create a free account and you earn a discount off every gallon of gas you buy at participating stations.
Another great gas hack is to earn free gas gift cards. First is by completing surveys online. You will earn either points or cash that you can redeem for free gas station gift cards, like Exxon Mobil gift cards or Shell gift cards.
Many gas brands offer a credit card that earns you up to $0.15 off per gallon of gas when you pay with your card. And to sweeten the deal, most offer cash back or rewards on non-gas purchases as well.
With modern fuel efficient vehicles, you are perfectly fine using the octane that is printed on the inside of the gas lid. So when buying gas, if you pay $0.15 per gallon more on a higher grade fuel, you are wasting money.
