The Offer

Stop&Shop, Giant, Martin’s

Giant, Stop&Shop, Martin’s have an offer showing in their circular:

• Get 4x fuel points on all third-party gift card purchases when you use your store loyalty card.

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. Visa and Mastercard gift cards are excluded from this offer, as are Giant/SS gift cards excluded as well.

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

6x is better than we usually see, and it will work on top gift cards like Amazon and Best Buy. Given that points can be used to discount groceries as well these deals are more widely useful. It can potentially amount to 6% back when redeemed for groceries or 12% back when redeemed for gas. Use a card that earns a bonus at grocery stores.

Note, many SS/Giant stores have implemented a $2,000 limit in gift card purchases each day. They also require putting it all on a single card. Also note that some SS/Giant stores now only award points for the first purchase of the deal, so be sure to buy the full $2,000 worth in a single transaction. The fine print of this offer implies that you get $2,000 across the entire week.

Post History:

• Update 6/7/24: Earn 6x points on all third party gift cards until June 7 – June 20, 2024. Hat tip to GC Galore
• Update 3/22/24: Check your local circular for 4x fuel points on third party gift cards from 3/22 through 4/4. The fine print excludes Visa/MC and store gift cards which would imply that all regular third party gift cards are eligible. If anyone can confirm that it applies to all third party gift cards (like Amazon, Best Buy, etc) kindly let us know in the comments.
