AMEX Costco TrueEarnings: cashback on gas, in case you didn't know

AMEX Costco TrueEarnings

3% cash back on gasoline at U.S. stand-alone gas stations, including at Costco, for purchases up to $4,000 per year (1% thereafter)

$4000 x 3% = $120 annual maximum 3% cash back for gas purchases (1% cash back above $4000)

 

AMEX Costco TrueEarnings Business

4% cash back on gasoline at U.S. stand-alone gas stations, including at Costco, for purchases up to $7,000 per year (1% thereafter)

$7000 x 4% = $280 annual maximum 4% cash back for gas purchases (1% cash back above $7000)

 

Reviewed my year-to-date spending by category on the American Express site. Gas purchases = $4025. Was planning to change cards for the remainder of the year to maximize my cash back when I realized the Business card has a higher cap.

Though I've been a member for 2 1/2 years, I just noticed the different caps today. Figured I would post this, in case someone else finds it useful.

I used my Gas at Walmart and they offer like 0.15 off per gallon. I get 5% off $100 dollars at Walmart participate Gas Station.
Temp to apps for Amex TU in the future but I guess Walmart can do for gas and BCE goes for grocery so I pass ;(

This card has been on and off my radar for years. But I'm happy with my lineup for now. Enjoying the garden. Smiley Happy

How did you get that discount? That's one hell of a deal right there!
