Get a new Speedpass™ any time between June 1 and August 31, 2005, and you'll receive a 5˘ per gallon discount on fuel purchases made with your new Speedpass device in most states.*
Just activate your new Speedpass device by August 31, 2005, and for 90 days after your activation date, every time you fill up, you can save towards the $20 maximum per account. The credit or check card you link to Speedpass will automatically be credited with the amount you saved.
Not a huge savings (and has to be activated by August 31st), but no down side--especially if you were thinking about signing up for a speedpass anyway.

If you are truly cost conscious should you be skipping the XOM stations and fill up at the (usually) cheaper independents?
Besides ... speedpass is RFID based ... eeeew (
