With the national gas price average inching even closer to $4.00 (AAA reports today it's at $3.96), gas packages/rebates/gift cards are hugely popular this season, as we've already noticed. Here's a wrap-up of some more gas packages to take with you this weekend.

· Hermitage Hotel: The Nashville Biz Journal reports that this downtown luxury hotel is offering guests a "Luxury Road Trip Getaway." Included is a free $25 gas card for each of the first two nights' stay plus a $40 discount on the hotel's standard room rate. Hybrid car owners/drivers get free valet parking on the first night which saves you another $24.

· Bookit.com: This online travel agency is offering guests either half-price gas or free flight credits, both up to $200. The promotion is part of the site's Travel Stimulus program which has been in effect since April.

· Expedia: Expedia just launched their gas package but it's already been popular enough to extend until the end of June. You must book three or more weeknights at a select hotel for stays until August 31, 2008.

· Algonquin Hotel: This historic hotel is offering guests who drive into the city 15 percent off room rates now through June 30, 2008.
