The Offer

Stop&Shop, Giant, Martin’s (not yet showing)

• Giant/Stopandshop/Martin’s have an offer for December 11 – 17 to get 4x fuel points on the purchase Visa gift cards.

Gift cards generally don’t earn fuel points at all at Giant/S&S/Martin’s, but occasionally they release offers like this to get points on gift card purchases.

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 (max $1.50 discount in most). Points can be used at partner Shell locations.

Points are now usable on groceries as well, with a value of 100 points equaling a $1 discount.

• You have 30 days to select whether you want to use the points on gas or groceries, then 30 days to actually use them.
• 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.

Our Verdict

Wow, can’t remember the last time they had 4x, it’s usually 2x or 3x. Concurrently, they’ll also be running fuel point deals of 10x on Bass Pro Shops & Cabela’s (for the second week in a row), as well as 10x on Giving Good and Happy Holidays gift cards.

Fuel points can be used to discount groceries as well, making these deals more widely useful. Use a card that earns a bonus at the grocery. Note: many SS/Giant stores have implemented a $2,000 limit in gift card purchases each day (previously the limit was $5,000). They also require putting it all on a single card.
