gas cap leak

ok.....so gas is at $2.40 a gallon, and everytime I fill my tank I figure I splash/slosh at least $1.50 all over the side of the truck. I tried taking a large O-ring, cutting it down the center, and using it as a make shift gasket, but it doesn't seem to seal correctly, and without that spacer, the cap and the cardboard gasket are even worse.....any suggestions?

Yes, I have tried not filling it to the top, I never use the automatic fill on the pump, but I only have the 16 gallon tank in the cab.....and only filling it half way full everytime isn't really an option.
