Gas Station Reward Points

Notes on collecting and redeeming fuel reward points for maximum value

I was filling up the Hyundai Tucson tester the other night and realized I have just about 400,000 Petro Points!

It all reminded me of a piece wrote for www.AutoTrader.ca a few months back, highlighting the points programs available at three major gas stations (Shell, Esso and Petro Canada), and some of the best ways to redeem points at each one.
