It normally works out to about the same. If you get fuel somewhere else with a plane on a "wet" rate, you'll more than likely be reimbursed at the amount the FBO pays for fuel, which is almost always gonna be less than you paid for it unless you do some serious shopping. Depending on where you go for fuel, you might wind up paying more for the dry rate. That was the case in ORL with one of the flying clubs for a while. The FBO charged so much for fuel, it was about the same (or cheaper some days) to go across the field and fly at the other place on the "wet" rate.
