Our Verdict
I’ve got no idea the maximum denomination Visa/Mastercard they sell, but even if they sell $200 cards that would be $20 in rewards for every purchase.
Hat tip to GC Galore
Thanks Doc! I never pay attention to the Fareway ads and NEVER would have known about this promo.
Payment is obviously YMMV. The three stores near me are all “cash, debit, and credit only.” No checks. Picked up 6k already using Amex gold, Amex blue cash preferred, and 2 freedoms (wife and I both got new freedoms with the grocery bonus).
Two downsides: best value is 20-200 card for $6.95 so I’ve spent $210 on fees. Also, we do 95% of our shopping at Aldi, so I would probably value Fareway gc at 90% of face value.
Still, using 90% of face value, I estimate my profit to be around $650 in about 6 hours over 4 days.

I wish I lived around there! Free groceries for the whole year!
