Wal-Mart cutting gas prices for three months

Bentonville, Ark. -- Wal-Mart Stores is cutting gas prices by 10-cents a gallon for three months to help consumers worried about their spending amid a sputtering economy and busy summer travel season. The chain said that customers visiting participating Murphy USA and Walmart gas stations in 18 states through Sept. 30 will receive a discount on all fuel, gas and diesel purchases when they use a reloadable Walmart gift card, Walmart MoneyCard or a Walmart credit card.



"Our customers have told us that high gas prices are a top budget concern, nearly as large an expense to their households as food and groceries," CMO Stephen Quinn said in a statement.
