 It's a coupon for something like 7.5cents per litre of gas you buy.  For each tank of gas, I usually get about $3.50 in Superstore coupons.  You can use them towards your groceries in the store....I think for anything except prescription drugs or tobacco.  And the coupon is usually valid for about 3 months at any StupidStore.

they give you the tickets when you buy gas... present it to the cashier when you go in to buy something.

That's probably why... I always pay cash.

I pay at the pump, too.  It's on the bottom of your receipt.
 Rip off the coupon part with the bar code at the bottom and that's your coupon.

  49er.....we still call gas stations, gas stations.  We have gas bars and gas stations. [/DIV]

I think I saw "gas bar" written at the station...maybe at Superstore?

For me, a gas bar is part of a large store ie Costco, Superstore.  And a station is like Petro Canada, Esso, Shell, Chevron, etc.

That's what I see as the difference too purelife.  

  It took me 6 minutes from my last post to this one....(probably a little more by the time this one actually posts)  As a matter of fact, it took so long, I don't remember what I came in here to say.

  Maybe I'm semi-banned ?
