What size propane tank are you carrying? How are you filling?

I have a 5lb propane tank that I carry, but the problem is that 76 gas stations for example, have a minimum $25 propane fill. Which is pretty much a 20lb tank. So I'm forced to go out of my way and either bring tanks that don't need filling yet, or drive across town to get my 5lb'er filled. What size tank are you carrying and where are you getting it filled?
 
I just bring a 20lb tank with me when I need one. Other than that, I have 1lb disposable tanks in my rig
 
A couple 5lb'ers should hold you though most weekends with room to spare. Perhaps rotate a few of them, so you always have something filled and you can fill them with out attendants losing it.
 
I have a couple 5lb tanks and I also grill a bit at my home, so I'm often in there filling up a 20lb tank. So never had any issues.
