Pump Up Your Savings: How to Use Walmart+ on Gas Like a Boss
Let's face it, these days filling up your car feels like filling a bathtub with molten gold. But fear not, fellow budget warriors, for I bring you the glorious news of Walmart+ gas savings!
Now, before you grab your jerrycans and dream of a gasoline-fueled mansion (not recommended, fire safety first!), let's break down how to use this magical perk like a pro.
Step 1: Download the Walmart App - Your One-Stop Gas Station Genie
Think of the Walmart app as your Aladdin's lamp for cheap gas. Download it, it's free (unless you count the uncontrollable laughter you'll have at the gas station cashier's face when you tell them you have a discount...muahaha).
Step 2: Find the "Member Prices on Fuel" Oasis
Navigate the app's sparkling oasis (or menu, whichever sounds fancier) and find the "Member Prices on Fuel" section. There it is, the key to unlocking a world of discounted gasoline!
Step 3: Choose Your Gas Station Adventure
Now, the fun part! You can use your Walmart+ discount at several locations, including:
- Exxon and Mobil stations: Because who doesn't love a little brand recognition while saving money?
- Select Walmart and Murphy USA stations: It's like a gas station family reunion, but with lower prices!
- Sam's Club fuel centers: Bulk discounts meet gas savings? Now that's a party!
Important note: Not all Walmart and Murphy stations participate, so use the fuel station finder in the app to avoid any disappointment (and awkward pump-side explanations).
Step 4: Activate Your Discount - The Big Moment!
Once you're at the pump, it's time to unleash the power of your Walmart+ membership. Here's how it differs depending on the station:
- Walmart and Murphy USA: Scan the QR code on the pump with your phone's camera. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy.
- Exxon and Mobil: Select "member prices on fuel" in the app and follow the on-screen instructions. It's like a choose-your-own-adventure for gas savings!
- Sam's Club: Scan your Sam's Club membership card at the pump, then select "Walmart+" as your payment method. Because synergy is key, people!
Remember: You'll need to activate the discount in the app each time you fill up. Don't worry, it only takes a few seconds, and the sweet, sweet sound of the discount applying will make it all worth it.
Step 5: Fill Up and Feel the Joy of Savings!
Now, the grand finale! Pump your gas, watch those savings roll in, and do a little victory dance (safely, of course, no need to spill that precious discounted fuel). You've just conquered the gas station and emerged victorious, armed with a lighter wallet (in a good way) and a heart full of gas-saving pride.
So there you have it, folks! With these simple steps, you can use your Walmart+ membership to save up to 10 cents per gallon (depending on the location). That might not seem like much, but trust me, every penny counts, especially when gas prices are doing the samba. Now go forth and conquer the pump, my friends, and remember, with Walmart+, you're not just filling your car, you're filling your wallet with happiness (and maybe a little bit of smug satisfaction).
