This morning, I was almost out of gas and stopped at Casey's to fill up. As usual, I swipped my Hy-Vee Fuel Saver card at the pump. Hy-Vee Fuel Saver is a program that provides fuel discounts when you buy certain grocery items at Hy-Vee.
I was pleasantly surprised when I saved $19.48 on my gas today! With my discount, my gas was just under $1 per gallon!

I often save a little bit on gas with Hy-Vee fuel saver. My wife does most of the grocery shopping at Walmart or Target, so the few things I buy at Hy-Vee don't add up to much savings. But today was different. How did I save so much on gas this time?
I told my wife about this at dinner, and she said she bought groceries at Hy-Vee and had them look up my Fuel Saver number since she doesn't have a card. That was a good move- it saved us nearly $20 on gas.
Here is an article that describes Hy-Vee Fuel Saver in more detail. Hy-Vee stores are mostly in the Midwest, so you won't be able to find a Hy-Vee if you live on the coast. The fuel saver discount works at Hy-Vee gas stations and also at Casey's gas stations which are abundant in the Midwest.

Tips to Save on Gas with Hy-Vee Fuel Saver:
- If you shop at Hy-Vee at all, you might as well sign up for Fuel Saver. You will save some money with almost no effort.
- Buy only things you need- don't buy extra stuff just to get the fuel saver discount. You won't save money if you do.
- As my wife discovered, you can have the cashier look up an account with a phone number if you don't have your Fuel Saver card with you.
- Groceries at Hy-Vee are fairly expensive compared with Walmart, but with the Fuel Saver discount, you might still be able to shop at Hy-Vee and not spend that much more money.
- When you get a good discount built up, buy as many gallons as you can. Luckily, my tank was almost empty when I got the big discount so I maximized my savings.
