Giving "Tanks" Offers from Retailers & Companies - Free Gas With Purchase Finds

I had been agonizing for months that gas prices would reach $4 a gallon, and now, in a blink of an eye, the prices have soared way over that amount - to almost $4.50 a gallon! I didn't even get a chance to get adjusted to spending $4 a gallon! I just want to vomit.

Ever since Sears announced their gas card promotion this week, I wanted to find out what other retailers or companies were jumping on the bandwagon as well to help fellow consumers. So after a furious internet search, I found a few more "free-gas-with-purchase" opportunities. (Special thanks to The Consumerist for some of the tips). Most of these deals are for the month of June, so act fast if you are interested.
