We get Fuel Perks here, giving us a one time deep discount on a gas purchase for their one time use. Thus, I let the tank go to NO dots to be able to buy as much deeply discounted fuel as possible. Thankfully, I've never had a problem and have done this often. Maybe the key is to drive gently under such circumstances---which I generally do.
