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.

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 ?
