Buckle Up and Save with the Walmart+ Gas Discount: A Hilarious How-To Guide
Feeling the pinch at the pump? Gas prices are about as high as your uncle's stories after one too many eggnogs at Christmas. But fear not, fellow motorist, for I, your friendly neighborhood humor writer (and, let's be honest, gas-discount enthusiast), am here to guide you through the glorious world of the Walmart+ gas discount.
How To Use Walmart Plus Gas Discount |
Step 1: Download the Walmart App, Unless You're a Technophobe Grandpa
First things first, you'll need the Walmart app. Download it, unless you're grandpa and still think the internet is just a fad for youngsters. In that case, good luck deciphering the pump instructions with your bifocals – you might need a younger model to help (or a carrier pigeon).

Step 2: Find the "Member Prices on Fuel" Button, But Beware of Distractions
Open the app and navigate to the "W+" section. Look for a button that says "Member Prices on Fuel". Now, resist the urge to get sucked into the vortex of online shopping deals. Remember, you're on a mission to save money, not spend it all on a life-sized inflatable T-Rex costume (although, that would be epic).

Step 3: Choose Your Weapon: Pump It Yourself or Unleash the App's Power
Here's where things get exciting (well, as exciting as pumping gas can be). You have two options:
QuickTip: Repeat difficult lines until they’re clear.![]()
- Option 1: Embrace Your Inner Gas Jockey: Head to a participating Walmart, Murphy USA, Exxon, or Mobil station (check the app for locations – it's like a treasure map for cheap gas!). Once you're at the pump, scan the QR code with your phone's camera, and voila! The discount is applied like magic (or like really good engineering, but magic sounds cooler).
- Option 2: Let the App Do the Heavy Lifting: If you're feeling fancy (or just plain lazy), use the "Start Pump" feature in the app. It will find your location and automatically apply the discount at participating stations. Just remember, don't blame the app if you accidentally pump premium into your lawnmower.
Remember: The discount varies by location, but it can be anywhere from 5 to 10 cents per gallon. That might not seem like much, but hey, every penny counts, especially when you're trying to avoid ramen noodle nights for the rest of the month.

Bonus Tip: Don't Forget the Jokes While You're Pumping Gas
While you're filling up, crack a joke to the person next to you. Tell them you're on a secret mission to single-handedly bring down gas prices with your Walmart+ superpowers. They might look at you funny, but hey, at least you'll have a good chuckle (and maybe even make a new friend who also appreciates a good deal).
So there you have it, folks! With these simple steps, you can save some serious cash at the pump and laugh in the face of outrageous gas prices. Now go forth, conquer the gas station, and remember, a little humor can go a long way, even when you're surrounded by fumes and overpriced snacks.
