I found that terms were interpreted differently at different stations.
I only got in on this in Aug-Sep, after the promo had officially ended
(since I don't live in SoCal), but I found a few places that still had
them in stock. At one, it was as Scott writes below -- with my fill-up,
I could buy as many small sets at $1.19 as I wanted. At another station,
however, the attendent would only let me have ONE at $1.19 with fill-up,
and any more at $1.69. I stocked up anyway...:) So, there will probably
be some variation, depending on who is manning the desk.

| One other occurance: At the end (August), some of the franchises combined their stock and sold it through individual stores. Buying a case of these sets @ $.99 per set wasn't unheardof. They are all gone now, but keep your eyes open for the upcoming (...) (24 years ago, 13-Oct-00, to lugnet.promo)
