Gas Stations that sell GC
I've been out of the MS game for a bit so I haven't bought a GC at a gas station in about a year and was super surprised that my go to Circle K was like, nah cash only...even for Amazon GCs. I tried a truckstop near me and same thing. I am not trying to buy a cash equivalent GC just Amazon. Are there any gas stations that still let you buy GCs with a CC?

I scoured my part of fly-over country to find a gas station that would allow me to use a credit card but all wanted cash only.
There are DPs out there that certain 7-11's will permit CC purchases of gift cards, but 7-11 is not native to my part of the country.

Thanks for the replies. I will continue my quest. Sadly there are no 7/11s here either

DP - 7/11 GC did not trigger gas station bonus category for Citi Costco Visa (4% on Gas) for me

Speedway. Scan your Speedy Rewards card and you get approx 4% back in points. There are various promotions that will push this higher. 1,000 points is worth roughly $1 in Speedway gift cards, which I used for gas. It's a nice alternative to Kroger if you don't want to deal with expiring points or juggling gas cans.

you only earn rewards if you buy closed loop GCs for specific stores

They were running a promo last year to get 300 points for each Vanilla bought there, they are running it again right now. Was working as a "service station" category for me for Visa, MC and Amex.
