Priceline's name your gas price is a scam !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[webguy]

If you read the terms & conditions, you will find that after about a month or two (after 1st use) they will charge you a flat $3 a month fee to your credit card when you request for a gas price. So, Priceline really sucks !!!!!!!!!!

its not a scam, its a $3 fee service that can save you WAY MORE that $3 in cas. Don't call it a scam.

i initially wrote something that was a flame, but i'll let you guys do it since everyone thinks i'm evil already

Inasmuchas AJ is evil, it isn't a scam. 3 bucks is not a scam. And it certainly doesn't warrent "!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Really, that's ridiculous.
A scam is something that tricks you into buying something you didn't intend on buying or in some other way bamboozling you. Priceline is up front about it. Don't like, you don't have to f#ckin' buy it.

Yeah, stop whining, if you got really screwed, then say its a scam. It happens that I just ordered 20 gallons of gas at Mobil for 1.67, where the normal price there is like 1.82. Plus for first 90 days, the fee of 3.00 is waived.

Well, thank you!

Note that the $3 is supposedly charged once no matter how many of the other priceline $3 programs you enroll in (i.e. Webhouse groceries, etc.).

Also note that I enrolled in Webhouse at least 6 months ago, have saved probably hundreds of $$$ off the ridiculous Manhattan grocery store prices (talk about scams), and haven't yet been charged a $3 monthly fee...

It only took about a week or two for them to deliever the card to me.
