Life hacks... I think we all have them. The financial hacks are the best. This one was so good my friend never shared it outside of family, but the secret eventually got out and I think the gig is up. But, since it was so good, I will pass it on in case it hasn't been shut down in your neck of the woods.
Most grocery stores now have "member cards", that are tied to a phone number, that earn points and can be redeemed at gas stations for discounts of up to a $1/gallon. For years now my friend has been using phone numbers that millions of people use in the stores to get the coupon price, and then used the rewards when pumping gas to get up to $25 off per tank fill.
Someone had originally posted that the number 420-420-4200 was being used by all the stoners to buy munchies. Well, all those munchies amounted to a lot of gas discounts. Eventually that number was shut down, but other common numbers worked. Anyway it was a great life hack while it lasted.
For you to give this a try in your area, go to a gas station that allows grocery store rewards, and you can type in the phone number at the pump. If your area code starts with 603, try typing in the number 603-603-6033, and see if it gives you $1 off/gal.
If you have any life hacks to share, please post them here... stay humble and stack sats is a given.
