Ahead of the Memorial Day weekend, convenience store chain Circle K has a deal on gasoline – but only on Thursday, May 22.
Between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. local time on May 22 at nearly 6,000 Circle K locations in 48 states, customers can get up to 40 cents off per gallon of gasoline. And those who have signed up for the chain’s Inner Circle rewards loyalty program also get extended hours for the deal, starting at 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. local time on May 22.
As many as 45.1 million Americans are expected to travel domestically over the holiday weekend, according to AAA. That’s 1.4 million more than a year ago.
A 40-cent discount will make filling up a better bargain, especially with gas prices expected to be about $3 per gallon, the cheapest Memorial Day at the pump since 2021, but lowest inflation-adjusted price since 2003, on average across the U.S., according to gas station-finding app GasBuddy.
“As people hit the road for the long weekend and kick off the summer season, we are pleased to bring all of our valued customers, both existing and new, some great savings at the pump,” said Louise Warner, Circle K’s executive vice president of North American operations, said in a press release.

Circle K will donate 10% of the profits during the three-hour event to the Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation.
“It is also our honor to use this occasion for the second straight year to partner with the Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation and support their important work to provide educational opportunities for children with parents who gave all in service to this country,” Warner said.

How to get Circle K’s 40-cent gas deal
When you go to a Circle K location, the fuel price will be reduced between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. local time. If you get to one early enough, the 40-cent per gallon discount will be applied when the phone number associated with the Inner Circle rewards membership is entered at the pump.

The discount could vary depending on state laws. For example, in Wisconsin, customers can save up to $4.50 on a minimum purchase of 3 gallons, according to Circle K.
