GEORGE Posted July 16, 2005 I know a couple people on this forum apparantly work for Wal-Mart: Anyone know if the Wal-Mart gift card can be used to buy gas at Wal-Mart? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> YES (ASSUMING IT IS OFFERED) $0.03 OFF The city I live outside of doesn't allow gas stations at WAL*MART/SAMS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BBQ123 Posted July 16, 2005 Thank you GEORGE. I recently got a $25 gift card from work as an "employee bonus" for being the best sales associate of the week. Really didn't need anything at Wal-Mart now, but free gas with prices of $2.40 a gallon is nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrskippy Posted July 18, 2005 The city I live outside of doesn't allow gas stations at WAL*MART/SAMS <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Why not? Afraid the parking lot might get too busy? Afraid it might hinder competition? Afraid it might drive the mom-and-pop stations out of business? In a country where gas is going up in price everyday it is places like Wal-Mart, Sam's, Costco, the grocers, and the other discounters that are at least helping us save a bit on our gas. I don't understand why so many places have a beef with Wal-Mart, Target, Costco, etc. If you don't like those places, don't shop there. Simple as that. It's funny, the people who complain about the mom-and-pop downtown shops being hurt are the same ones you see at the Wal-Mart grand opening. I'll support local business when I can (especially if they have stuff Wal-Mart doesn't). Kudos to downtown associations that have shifted their focus to selling stuff that Wal-Mart doesn't.
