Default Gas Credit Cards

I was thinking about this today as I was filling up my car. I use the BP credit card because they give you 5% cash back on purchases from BP stations. My curiosity is to what you guys use for cash back gas cards and what your benefits look like.

Mine is as follows:
5% on BP stations
2% on grocery stores and restaurants
1% on everything else

I use Pentagon FCU's credit card, which gives 5% on gas purchases, 1% on everything else.

Occasionally, they also offer 2%-3% offers for about 1-2 months at a time -- for example, a "2% back on dining" deal just finished up at the end of August. In June/July, I believe they had a "3% back on 'back to school'", which mostly included bookstores, electronics stores, office supply stores, and clothing stores.

It used to be much better, where it was 5% gas, 2% groceries, 1.25% everything else. It changed to it's current program back around the new year.
