Credit Card Gas Rewards Roundup: Up to 10% cash back

According to the latest Lundberg Survey, gas prices have fallen 12 cents over the last two weeks. That puts the average price for a gallon of self-serve regular gas below $4 for the first time since early June. Plus, the credit cards below yield up to 10% cash back on gas purchases, with most earning 1% on all other purchases. (The AmEx card gives 1.5% back, but you must spend over $6,500 per year.) Please read the respective sites for full terms and conditions. (For example, some require a minimum spend per year.) Once an introductory rate expires, be sure to consider switching cards. The deals:

Chase BP Visa Rewards Card: 10% cash back for 2 months, 5% after, at any bp location
Chase PerfectCard MasterCard: 6% cash back at gas stations for 3 months, 3% after
Blue Cash from American Express: 5% cash back at gas stations, supermarkets, and drug stores
