    Are they worth it if you are a company driver?

    I think free showers and points are well worth it. I save up points for a while and then have bought inverters, a cb radio and many other small things as well as just buying lunch with the points occasionally. Not sure why you wouldn't think free is worth it.:biggrin_25525:

    I use pretty much only Love's program..
    I have not paid for coffee or showers in the last 4 years.
    I have bought a fridge for my truck with it..
    I cant begin to think of how much Junk food and subways and carls jr's and arbys it has paid for...
    well worth the few seconds it takes to get one...
    oh the loves card will even start the fuel pumps for you if your fuel card wont work or if it requirs you to fill out a book to fuel....

    We try to get fuel from TA as much as possible, since they have the "gold pin discount" through CRST Malone. So, why wouldn't I get the rewards card, or why wouldn't anyone else? Look at the facts of the matter....

    They don't cost you anything.
    You're getting points on something you (or your employer) would purchase anyhow.
    You get a shower with purchases of 50 gallons or more.
    Eventually, the points add up and you can purchase stuff with them.
    With some (such as the Pilot/Flying J card), you get coupons along with points and showers.

    In short, it saves you money, and is effortless.

    There have been a couple of times in the past year, that those points are what kept hubby and I from going hungry. After our accident, and a couple of times when our truck broke down, we didn't get enough miles to get a paycheck. If not for those points, and being able to purchase food with them, we would have gotten mighty hungry!!
