Amazon Prime $1 gas discount: How to get it
Amazon Prime members will need to link their membership to Earnify, the bp loyalty program, to get the deal. Then, during the July 4th weekend (July 3-6), they can get $1 off per gallon on one fuel purchase (up to 35 gallons) when they fill up at more than 7,500 Amoco, BP and participating AM/PM locations.
Once your account is linked, use the Earnify app store locator to find the nearest participating station. At the pump, redeem the offer by inputting your phone number or linked payment method – or by selecting the gas station and pump they are using in the Earnify app.
Prime members can also regularly get a 10-cent per gallon discount every day when they buy gas at participating locations, with their linked accounts.
Amazon added the 10-cent gas discount after getting feedback from Amazon Prime members, Amazon Prime vice president Jamil Ghani told USA TODAY at the time. "We always look at where we can be of value to members and every time we ask … what would make Prime even more valuable for them, it's fuel savings," he said.

With two major shopping events just around the corner, many potential buyers are wondering whether it's better to take advantage of the initial Fourth of July deals, or wait until Prime Day a few days later. Unfortunately, there's no way of knowing which sale will offer the absolute best prices, but it's likely that both will blur into a single massive shopping event that spans multiple days and retailers. With that in mind, we'd lean toward getting your order in sooner rather than later. While there's a slight chance we'll see prices dip a little lower later in the sale, there's a much greater chance that the best bargains will sell out fast. If you see a TV that fits your needs and budget at a good price, we'd recommend grabbing it before it goes out of stock. Which retailers offer the best July 4th TV deals? As you might expect, major retailers like Best Buy and Amazon will be offering some excellent deals for the Fourth of July and Prime Day. You'll also want to check out smaller online-only retailers like B&H Photo and Adorama, as they may be offering some under-the-radar bargains that aren't being matched elsewhere.

July 4: Gas prices hit lowest level since 2021
Gasoline prices hovered at their lowest level since 2021 heading into the July Fourth holiday. On Thursday, the national average price for a gallon of regular gasoline stood at $3.16 per gallon, according to AAA data. This marks a $0.35 drop compared to the same day last year. Cheaper gas is a welcome relief for the more than 61 million people expected to hit the road this weekend. "Americans will spend ~$500 million less on gasoline this July 4 weekend (Thu-Sun) vs last year," GasBuddy head of petroleum analysis Patrick De Haan wrote on X. The drop in gas prices has been largely driven by lower prices for oil (CL=F, BZ=F) following President Trump's announcement of a ceasefire between Israel and Iran. That eased concerns about a potential supply shock. Read more: Is the stock market open on July Fourth? Despite relief at the pump, the next one or two months may be bumpy, according to Turner, Mason & Co. chief market analyst Tom Kloza. "We may wobble a bit higher or lower in July and August," he said. "Demand is decent and there are enough issues with US refining to keep the market supported in these peak summer months." Kloza noted a wide disparity in prices across the country. Drivers in the Southeast and Great Lakes regions may find gas for under $2.50 per gallon, while California continues to post the highest prices nationwide. The Golden State's elevated prices are due to a combination of special fuel blend requirements, higher taxes and fees aimed at curbing emissions, and an expected shutdown of two major refineries, which could send prices even higher. Still, at $4.57 per gallon, prices in California have eased about $0.22 compared to this time last year. Read more: What are the best credit cards for gas? Energy analysts see prices falling below $3 per gallon later this year as the driving season winds down and refineries switch to less expensive winter blends. However, weather remains a wild card — as does the Middle East. Hurricane season is just beginning, and any major storms in the Gulf of Mexico could send prices climbing again. "As long as tensions in the Middle East remain contained and the U.S. avoids a major hurricane, we could see the national average fall below $3 per gallon later this summer," GasBuddy's De Haan said.
