Walmart Offers Nationwide Gas Discount

Walmart has introduced a 90-day rollback on gasoline to give customers a savings of 10 cents a gallon on gas and diesel fuel at participating Murphy USA and Walmart gas stations. The discount will be applied to gas purchases made when using a reloadable Walmart gift card, reloadable Walmart MoneyCard or Walmart credit card through Sept. 30.

“Our customers have told us that high gas prices are a top budget concern, nearly as large an expense to their households as food and groceries,” explained Stephen Quinn, chief marketing officer at Bentonville, Ark.-based Wal-Mart Stores Inc. “We listen to our customers, and because we know they are feeling squeezed by gas prices, we’re implementing this gas rollback to help them save, especially during high-travel summer months.”

Customers who use Walmart cards to buy gas at participating gas stations will immediately receive the 10-cents-a gallon on fuel purchases, with no other restrictions or requirements.

“It’s important to us that we extend this offer to everyone, not just Walmart customers shopping in our stores, without requiring any other type of purchase,” said Quinn. “Our goal is to make it easy for everyone to save and live better, and we think this gas program is leading in the market because it doesn't require any additional purchase, loyalty card or other restrictions.”

States with gas stations taking part in the program are Arkansas, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois,Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia.
