The company says the price at the pump will reflect the discounted price during the three-hour period.

The convenience store chain said there is no limit on how much gas everyone can purchase at the discounted rate, and there is nothing stopping customers from stacking another coupon on top of the lower priced fuel.

In a series of tweets on Thursday, Circle K answered several questions about the promotion.

Of course, as with most discounts, there are restrictions.

In Circle K’s promotional disclaimer, the company says customers can get "up to 40 cents per gallon in certain states" in accordance with applicable laws.

The national average cost for a gallon of gas was $3.53 for the week ending May 18, 2023, unmoved from a week prior, according to the latest data from AAA.
