When the new corporate owners take over, I'd be surprised if they don't come up with some sort of loyalty program again for Chevron (or whatever banner it gets run under). Every other retail gas chain has something, so if they don't, they aren't being competitive on that customer loyalty front.

But more than anything else, I seriously hope they will not do away with their Ultra 94 option. Petro Canada and Husky has already killed off their 94 octane offerings, and while Shell V-Power seems to be at least as good as Chevron Ultra 94, it would suck to have only a single option for filling up the car.

This. You get 1 point for every dollar of gas.

You need 2500-3500 points for a gallon of milk.

That's great I pumped $3000 worth of gas and I got a $4 jug of milk. Sounds good, see you there.

Funny how a PSA about Chevron not taking More Rewards spawned info on Chevron being sold off in Canada.

To those that wondered, I had to fill Chevron because my car was tuned to their 94, and the 3 closest stations to where I live were all Chevrons. I might change to Shell 91 and get air miles(or is that gone too) instead.

Air Miles is still there, but I think the program itself is being killed. Esso and Aeroplan seems to be the only one left (which I keep freaking forgetting I have and not filling up with them )

I'm hearing that Air Miles as a program is being killed, unless it's people's points expiring.

Save on more points are so fucking useless. They constantly raise the number of points you need to get something decent. I think in 15 years I have saved up enough points to get a toaster outright on points.

I stopped giving a shit when I fill up at Chevron now, and just hit no on the points to save time.
