Difference Between Retail Minus and Cost-Plus Pricing:

Retail minus price – This is the retail price minus a negotiated discount per gallon. The retail price will always be the lowest posted pump price and is typically the price per gallon charged to customers who pay with cash or a fuel card. So, let’s say the retail price is $5.00 and the negotiated discount is 5 cents. You pay $4.95 per gallon.

Cost plus price – Cost plus is the cost of a diesel gallon (with taxes and freight costs to transport the fuel from rack to truck stop) plus a pumping fee. When you see cost plus price, think of it as the price that truck stop is paying for each gallon of diesel, then add a few cents to that. If the cost price is $4.50 and the plus is 5 cents, you pay $4.55 per gallon. So, if the retail price was $5.00, you would save $0.45 cents per gallon on that fill up.
