Some things that are for sure are death, taxes, and the price of gas always spikes up going into a holiday.

Yeah, that's how they get you. Knowing many will travel for holiday get-togethers the gas companies know they can raise the price of gas a few cents to maximize those profits.

Circle K locations across the United States are taking a stand and are bringing back Circle K Fuel Day where they're dropping gas prices 40 cents at the pump.

That's it. No special sign-ups, no having to say the 'phrase that pays', no needing to join their Discord for the super-secret code. You just show up and on Thursday, November 21, 2024 between the hours of 4 p.m. - 7 p.m. you'll get 40 cents off your gas.

The idea is you fill up now in advance and get rewarded 40 cents off the gallon for not waiting until the last minute like almost everyone else who may fill up as they're leaving town.

And I get that notion, too. Gas up before you leave, then you can pop in the store and grab road trip snacks. I don't blame you.

This way instead of waiting in the long lines for gas as you're heading home for the holidays, you'll already be prepared. Though you can still swing by and, instead of waiting in line at the pump, you can just swing in, grab a couple hot dogs or even some Godfather's Pizza and you'll be on the road in no time.

This is only happening at Circle K locations across the United States including 50 in Washington State alone with the one in Yakima on South 1st street and Valley Mall Blvd in Union Gap with other locations in Naches and Ellensburg.
