The Offer
Direct Link  (it’s found at most stores on ad page 3 or 4)
- Receive 4x fuel points on gift cards purchased from Kroger, no coupon necessary
This deal is valid at Kroger and all other Kroger-affiliated stores, like Ralph’s, Smith’s, Fry’s, etc. Check out the ad at your local store to make sure it’s running there.
The standard deal at Kroger stores is 2x fuel points on gift card purchases, and they’ll occasionally release offers like this one to get 4x fuel points.
It appears that all gift cards are included in this offer – double check at the store that this is true. In the past, there have been mixed reports on whether fixed-denomination Visa/MC/Amex gift cards worked to trigger the bonus fuel points. The terms imply that they do work, but it’s YMMV in practice.
The Fine Print
- Offer valid 4/13/16 until 4/26/16
- Remember to use your Kroger card to get the points and to use the points
Stack the Deal
There’s also a digital coupon available at the Kroger stores for 20% off each of the Gap brands. This will stack beautifully with the 4x fuel points.
Our Verdict
Nice to see this fuel points deal back and it pairs beautifully with the 5x rewards using the Chase Freedom card for Q2 2016.
To maximize the deal even further, remember that you can get free cell phone service with Kroger when you earn fuel rewards points; no points are used up with this benefit, it’s just an additional free perk which you get from fuel points, aside from the free gas.
Points Details
Usually, every 1000 points gets you a discount of $1 per gallon with a 35-gallon limit, a max value of $35 per 1000-points. These details do vary by store and region.
If you purchase a $250 gift card you’ll earn 1,000 points which can save you up to $35, a 14% discount on the gift cards. You’ll also receive bonus grocery store points on your credit card for Kroger purchases.
