I don't know about GC's but the BP station by Hewlett-Woodmere Library on Broadway is full service and doesn't differentiate between Cash/CC Prices.  This usually means paying somewhere between Cash/CC prices at other stations but I've sometimes seen it the same as the cash prices at the 3 gas station intersection of Peninsula Blvd and Mill Rd.

im more looking for a place in the 5t that wil elt me buy gc's with my freedom card

I was told by the attendant by the BP on chestnut and the 9 that they give cash prices for gc's. Anyone try it there?

I did the same, on Friday afternoon. The process took around ten minutes though, and the guy seemed confused about how to do it. I guess he'll remember how to do it when the end of Q3 comes around.  ;)
