Hello! I am way too interested in getting these awards, and wondering if anyone has figured out a way, especially with the list of different stations, to see which stations you've already entered that contributes to your award. That way I may be able to fill in local stations I've "missed"

Also to contribute they have to be "Find Near Me". Very occasionally I'll enter something awhile later when I can't make a note or pull over right away. ALso this morning, my GPS was messed up again and showed me 250 miles away. I entered the town name I was in (Lockport, NY) and entered the prices that way, but wonder if because of the distance restriction, those won't "Count"....Thanks!

Side note to the original post:
I too routinely post prices for stations (accurate prices, I may add) that I pass along a lengthy commute, sometimes across state borders, after I end my travel, frequently a half hour or hour, 30 to 45 miles from the stations.

I have no idea what I get credit for, if anything, nor do I really care, but I do care that prices are posted for the benefit of fellow travelers. After all, that's what this website is about. Or at least what I believe this website is supposed to be about.

First off, thanks for being such a diligent price poster!

You are correct in that you are way too interested in getting the awards. They mean nothing and are completely useless. No one can see your reward levels and you don't earn points. Points are earned for gas card prizes per the info in this link.

Another app user has noted that you have to be within about 10 miles of a station for it to be counted on the awards. Sorry, the ones you missed probably won't count on the awards.

There is no way for us to see the stations that contribute to the award tally.
