RE: RV Life Posting On Fresh Water System

I agree and usually just pass on anything they write. But when I saw this actually featured on another forum that they support, I decided I wanted to see what it was all about. But I also wanted to bring it to the attention of others that might think it has some semblance of truth. There are a lot of new RVers that might not know better. Chuck

RV Life Posting On Fresh Water System

RV Life just posted an article that implies we can get Legionnaire's Disease from our freshwater systems in our RV's. It provides no data or any instances to support this claim and seems like a scare tactic to get more clicks to the site. It's very short on any facts or backed up by any science, Or any information at all except their speculation. My question to members is this, has anyone any first-hand experience on anyone getting Legionnaire's Disease from their RV water tanks or systems? Not any other conditions but confirmed cases of Legionnaire's Disease? In all my many, many years of living in our RV and decades of living on a boat and cooking, drinking, and bathing using the water from our tanks we have never had so much as a stomach ache. I would like to hear from anyone that has encountered this. Chuck

RE: Credit Cards For Fuel Discounts

I give up. I guess I'm done here. This is a perfect example why I don't post here anymore. I should have known better. Chuck

RE: Credit Cards For Fuel Discounts

Thanks for some of the suggestions but I am not looking for grocery stores to shop at for gas discounts. I ask about credit cards, so PLEASE keep the posts to that topic. That is what drives me crazy trying to get information on this forum. Chuck

RE: Credit Cards For Fuel Discounts

5.25 BOA cash on fuel. use it anywhere.
If BOA gave me 100% cash back I would not do business with them. Chuck

RE: Credit Cards For Fuel Discounts

As to the PenFed card, I have already applied for and been approved for (took 5 minutes) a Wells Fargo visa that offers the same cash back and same terms as the PenFed card. So they would be redundant. Chuck

RE: Credit Cards For Fuel Discounts

You're in Florida, so I'll bet you shop Publix, at least occasionally.
When Publix has gas card weekends, they offer $50 gas cards for $40 with a minimum $50 grocery purchase. That's a 20% savings --- with gas at $5.00 per gallon, that equates to about $1.00 per gallon discount.
We buy BOGO's (which also count towards your $50 minimum purchase), and it ends up being a win-win. You've got to be a savvy shopper to get deals at Publix, because yes, on many items they are the higher-priced alternative to other stores.
You can actually purchase one card for each $50 spent, so if you tally up $100, you can buy two cards, and so on.
In our area the 3 main gas cards they sell are Shell, Mobil, and RaceTrac.
Yep. Wife gets those every chance she can. But we can't shop at Publix while driving around the country. Chuck

RE: Credit Cards For Fuel Discounts

Good Sam Pilot/Flying J cards offer one to three cents per gallon depending on the station. And in many stations, we could not get the card to work. Cut it into little pieces. Chuck

RE: Credit Cards For Fuel Discounts

Cards for diesel only really don't help me much but may be helpful to others. I cut up my Good Sam card after it became more of a hassle than the few pennies we saved. The discount is about a penny a gallon and the problems trying to even use the card was just not worth it. Chuck

Credit Cards For Fuel Discounts

All of us are concerned with current high fuel prices. I have been trying to research using credit cards for either cash back or discounts at the pump to help save some money on fuel. What I'm finding is very confusing and doesn't really give me any definitive answers. So I thought I would go directly to the source. Those that are currently using cards for that very reason. So what are you all using to get the most discounts for your fuel purchases. I am not interested in getting any kind of rewards points. I'm specifically looking for discounts at the pump or cash back for gas purchases. What say you? Chuck

RE: Where have all the members gone on this forum?

I have posted a few times but after the snarky responses and a multitude of answers to questions I never asked. I have pretty much given up here. There are other forums out there that have people willing to respond with answers that actually pertain to my post. So that's where I go for help or information. Chuck
Hey Chuckbear--- can you list some of the other forums.... thanks
Joe, this will probably get removed but if you see it quick enough, one is here and the other is here. Chuck

Well Chuckbear,
Let me save you a lot of time and possible curiosity.
Don't post a question of any technical or important knowledge on Farce Book.
You will get:
Lots of fast answers
60% wrong answers
5~10% actual correct answers that may be obtuse
30% answers that do not relate to the posted question
20% trying to make your question sound stupid
This is why the only thing I post on FB is RTM.
Matt
Well, Matt, your post is a perfect example of which I speak. I don't know what Farce Book is and doubt I would ever post there. Nor do I
remember asking anyone about posting on Farce Book, whatever that is. Chuck
