Gas Points DetailsÂ
Here are the gas points details. Every 100 points gets you 10¢ off per gallon at Shell, up to 20 gallons. If you have 1000 points, you’ll get $1 off. If you have 1500 points, you’ll get $1.50 off per gallon.Â
- Max discount in some areas is $1.50. In other areas, there might not be any max. (I believe Martin’s does not have the max either.)
- You have 30 days to use the points. The day of purchase is Day #1.
- Points can only be used at partner Shell stations. You can redeem the points in a different area from where you got the points, but only if that Shell station is a partner. Check out the gas locator for Stop & Shop and for Giant for exact listings of which Shell stations are included.
- See the FAQ for more details. Some of the details vary by area and store.
- Points usually are available immediately, but I’ve had on occasion where it took a day until they showed up and were usable.
- Pro tip: Use a Shell gift card and you’ll usually get the cash price; it’s especially worthwhile to get the lower cash price when using fuel points.
Our Verdict
Pretty good deal for those who need Staples gift cards, especially if you have a card that earns a grocery bonus.
In the best case scenario, the 10x fuel points would amount to a 20% discount off the Staples gift cards (besides the credit card points) which is pretty incredible. But of course most people don’t work out for the best scenario: you might already have fuel points from previous promotions, you might have a small tank which can’t fill up to 20 gallons, and your Shell might be more expensive.
