Need gas? Circle K is giving rewards members up to 40 cents off every gallon Thursday, Aug. 13, offering a one-day chance to save at the pump as families gear up for back-to-school spending. The deal is available through 11:59 p.m. local time at participating locations nationwide.
The discount is part of Circle K’s Fuel Day promotion and is available exclusively to members of the company’s free Inner Circle rewards program. Drivers can sign up the same day, then redeem the offer by entering the phone number linked to their account at the pump or during checkout. The savings apply to all fuel grades, though the promotion cannot be combined with other Inner Circle fuel discounts.
“It’s been a summer full of energy for our customers as we celebrate America’s 250th with America’s Party Stop,” said Executive Vice President of North America Operations Louise Warner in the press release. “We’re carrying that same energy into back-to-school, staying focused on what we do best: delivering real value and helping ease everyday costs.”

Customers could eventually get $1 off per gallon of gas, the company said.
