    I have the Shell Citi Visa. It gives an extra 5% off the price of Shell gas. At $4/gal, drops the price to $3.80/gal.

    Rate drop was cool (prime is around 2% now right?) but low oil futures means jack for the next couple months! That means future deliveries will be at a lower price. We are going to pay the inflated prices ALL SUMMER! A drop in oil futures will happen in the next couple months, due to cheaper winter blends introduced after summer. ALSO that means cheaper gas around election time. Remember when bush was re-elected gas dipped then too, so expect futures to contine to drop for the coming months. This is just market manipulation by the oil companies to strengthen the bond with our governement. :mad::mad:

    I use my costco AMEX and get 3% back from American Express and 2% for executive level memebership (5% total, but I can only spend it at Costco)..... Can't use visa at costco and they seem to be the lowest price in my area.

    I have 2 Citicards and when I called customer service the last time I got some guy who had a strong accent and could barely understand him. I think they out-source. I don't use my CitiCards anymore! I need reps to speak english:eek:! English....guess thats a dead language these days.:(
