Default Shell Stations

Evinrude was kind enough to send me a $500.00 dollar gas card when I purchased a new boat with their engine. Unfortunately, I can only use it at Shell Stations. Does anyone know of any Shell Stations on the lake?? I can't think of any...

I realize I can use this for my personal vehicles, but really wanted to use it for the boat.

Thanks in advance!

Dan

None. Too hard to bury the tanks under the lake. .. groan...

Sorry, couldn't resist, maybe someone will give you a serious answer about some marina around the lake.

Just make sure you use it by the expiration dates. I lost $100 or so because I didn't. Buy some 6 gallon cans and fill them with this CHEAP $4 gas.

Looked at Shell.com and Tilton, Laconia, W Ossipee are the only ones listed around the Lake.

Thanks Dave, I did look there but I do not believe that they show marinas that sell their gas only roadside stations.

Thanks anyways!!

Thanks for the info, but according to the back of the card there is no expiration only a $1.75 per month inactivity fee if not used for 12 months. I will confirm that however!!

Thanks!!

I could be wrong but I believe it's illegal in NH for a company to charge any kind of inactivity fee on a gift card of any type regardless of how long the card remains unused.

You might want to check with the Atty. General's office to confirm this and if they can confirm, you might want to point it out to the company named on the gift card. A follow-up post here would also be great for the rest of us!

Default Wolfboro Baja is Correct!

Wolfboro Baja;

You are absolutely correct!! After reading ALL the fine print, there is an inactivity fee but not in certain states that are listed on the back of the card and NH is one of the listed states!!

Thanks for the info!!
