I would love to see Safeway work with one of the gas companies here on such a program. Examples of gas companies here in Northern California: Valero, 76, Chevron, Beacon, and Shell. I sure do miss the 3 cent discount that Safeway use to offer.

Not sure who supplies the Safeway stations in the Southwest. Every gas station gets gas from the most convenient refinery. It has nothing to do with the brand.
