The Offer
- Giant Eagle is offering 2x Fuelperks+ for every $50 spend on gift cards
The Fine Print
Our Verdict
Nice way to get some cheap gas, can also be used to discount groceries now as well. Make sure to use a credit card that earns at a high rate on grocery store purchases.
Can also use a credit card that earns a high rate on gas station purchases and buy the gift cards at Get Go (Giant Eagle’s gas station). *Selection is smaller than in the grocery store.
Never tried buying VGC or MCGC earning fuel perks online. $6.95 per $200 max GC, appears to apply to VGC and MCGC online at least (start search for visa, click on anywhere cards and you’ll see both brands). Personally, I’ll pass since I’ve get a horde of gas points from Giant/Shell that I can’t possibly spend in time.
Double Fuelperks+ is always a good deal!
Be sure to double check your Fuelperks+ expiration date. Until a few months ago, they used to expire on the last day on the month. Now they expire on either the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th Tuesday of the month with as randomly assigned date.
Really? I honestly didn’t know that.
Yeah it’s a bit weird but probably makes sense to do. Before, you’d have everyone filling up the last day of the month. I assume they’re hoping this will somewhat spread out he demand.
