Oil has got to be the most important thing to your engine, I bet alot of engines could have been saved if people checked there oil more often. And unless you have no ability at all to change your oil yourself stay as far away from the dealer as you can.
You don't get an accurate reading if you check every time you get gas, unless you are letting the car sit there for a good 10 minutes or so before checking.

I think every time you gas up is a little excessive (of course I fill up once a week), but once every couple of weeks is always a good idea.
