i already used it, works great. i bought 10 gallons of gas here in pa. for $1.46 and the pump price says $1.63. after 3 months though they add a $3.00 monthly fee.

i just signed up... but says

<blockquote>Thank you for registering a Priceline Gas Card! We have had tremendous demand for cards and are sending them on a first-come, first-served basis. We will be sending your card to you as soon as possible.</blockquote>

If you guys don't feel like waiting just join carclub.com and you get 10% off gas no matter where you buy it (which, from the price posted above is the same as priceline will give you). After the first month there is a fee (and it is more than $3 but pretty small) and there are additional benefits. Also, I think there is also still the $15 amazon.com GC promotion going on.
