Looks like we can get a tank for free but will have to pay $400-500 for the pump and related equipment.

I would check out eBay. I found a Tuthill DC pump for $199, new with warranty, that retails at Northern Tool for $279.

2*So to answer my question, it looks like we can save 5-12 cents per gallon.
3*The supplier said he would deliver for free if the purchase was 100 gallons or more.
4*Less than that was pretty cheap, $20-30 I think.
5*We are doing this to have the fuel at home and convenience.
6*It will take 10+ years to recoup the cost of the pump from the bulk buy of the fuel.

1*I only have about 250 to 300 bucks in this.

2* Don't sound just rite as the tax on fuel is way more than that.
3* & 4*I got 60 gallon delivered the other day. First delivery,
Was $4.02 a gallon 60 or 600 gallons.
5*Even if the cost was the same the convenience is worth it. No way do I ever want to go back to the 5 gallon can lug and lift method.
6*I recouped $40.20 on the first delivery.
