The Offer
Load coupons here for all Kroger stores | Harris Teeter
Check your Kroger coupons for the following offers:
- Save a digital coupon to get 4x fuel points on Visa and Mastercard $100, $50, or $25 fixed-value gift cards. (Does not work on variable-load Visa/MC gift cards.)
- Save a digital coupon to get 4x fuel points on third party gift cards. (Excludes Amazon.)

Our Verdict
When maxed out on a 35-gallon fill, 4x fuel points can amount to a 14% discount on gas. Select Kroger stores now allow redeeming fuel points for groceries now as well.
Deal is valid online and in-store. Remember to use a card that earns at a high rate on grocery store purchases. There is also a Chase offer for 10% back.

It’s back, this time for an extended 4-day Labor Day weekend:
Both most 3rd party gift cards, and $25/$50/$100 Visa/MC gift cards, have 4x coupons good Fri 8/29 through Mon 9/1.
However, keep in mind, that at least at most Kroger brands, the fuel points are earned on a monthly basis, so a gift card bonus of 4x for a purchase made 8/29 through 8/31 will count toward your August fuel points, while a gift card bonus of 4x for a purchase made on 9/1 will count toward your September fuel points.
And remember to scan both barcodes of any gift card that has two barcodes (one smaller one typically at the top back and one bigger one typically low down), since I’ve been told by store agents that scanning both barcodes helps ensure you earn all of the points you should have.
Scanning only the lower barcode (which is all that’s needed for gift card activation), while it may often earn you all points, is not as likely to earn you all points in all circumstances.
No purchase fees ($6.95) on variable load VISA/MC with a minimum $150 purchase.
Awesome, thanks !
Where do you see this? Also, is this Krogers only, or is this possible in Safeway/Albertsons too? How to cash out/unload these nowadays?
I have this offer for Fry’s (Kroger family) in AZ.
I mentioned this as one paragraph in my post right below to DoC about this week’s coupons.
I’ve never heard of Kroger coupons working at non-Kroger stores like Safeway/Albertsons. They always seem to have different coupons.
It’s only manufacturer coupons which sometimes work at multiple grocery chains, but this isn’t a single manufacturer coupon, it covers both Visa and MC gift cards but only of certain amounts.
Almost all of my Chase cards have 5% back (up to $4.50) and P3 has a Sapphire for !0% up to $9.
It’s back, with both 4x on most third-party gift cards, and 4x on $25/$50/$100 MC/Visa gift cards, active Fri-Sun again, this time 8/22 through 8/24.
There’s also still the seemingly-bogus coupon that the picture shows of only One4All cards, but the text claims is for 4x on most third-party gift cards from 8/13 through 8/26. That doesn’t seem to make any sense.
Finally, something I see rarely: $6 savings, ie no purchase fee, but only on $150 or more of MC/Visa gift cards, so it doesn’t apply to the $25/$50/$100 MC/Visa gift cards the 4x coupon is for. Thus you can’t stack the no purchase fee with 4x.
That “4x” coupon showing the One4All cards, but with extensive text about 100’s of other GCs being included, is indeed bogus. They got me again on 8/20 for eBay and AirBnB gift cards (used 2 different Chase CC’s to get 10% off $90 on each, intending to also get 4x fuel points for upcoming road trips). Well, I only got 2x, yet again (happened to me last week with the online eGift cards), and had to call in for the point modification, which I did get.
Bottom line for me is that I’m only going for these fuel multipliers on Fridays from now on.
Now it’s back for the weekend:
Both most 3rd party gift cards and $25/$50/$100 Visa/MC gift cards have 4x coupons good Fri 8/15 through Sun 8/17.
And, as usual, there’s the Fri 8/15 4x coupon on most non-gift-card purchases also.
But it’s also confusing. There’s a separate coupon with a picture of 2 One4All gift cards which last week said it was a 200 point bonus for buying One4All gift cards, but today the text next to it is claiming that it’s a 4x coupon on most third-party gift-cards through 8/26. That might be a mistake.
They’ve definitely had mistaken coupons before, where the picture didn’t match the text.
The 4x fuel points on Friday thru Sunday non-gc purchases must be regional. In Memphis, it’s only 2x.
You misread what I wrote.
I don’t know if it’s regional.
But it’s always Fridays only for the 4x on non-gc purchases, not Friday thru Sunday, at my Ralphs store.
So that coupon disappears on Saturdays, because it’s a Friday only coupon.
So you need to check between Wednesday and Friday to see if your local Kroger store brand has a 4x on non-gc purchases coupon.
Thanks for the clarification. Yes I see where you said it was for Friday only @ Ralph’s. In Memphis, the only option is 2x fuel points on Fri-Sun purchases @ Kroger. Yes you have to clip it each week.
This time it’s back for two whole weeks!
Both the text of the third-party and $25/$50/$100 Visa/MC 4x gift card coupons, and the graphics, agree that it’s 7/30 through 8/12.
And the Friday 4x on most other purchases is back this week too.
But the same issue which I saw last week happened this week: In the main coupon list, it only shows one of the two gift card coupons at the top, and I have to click either “4x Gift Card Event” or “Gift Cards” on the left to see the other one. I don’t know if that’s a general issue, or whether it varies by customer. Up through two weeks ago, it always showed both gift card coupons near the top of the main coupon list.
The terms on the more recent offer exclude Amazon and fuel retailers. These have always been my first choices for racking up fuel points, especially since our stores started stocking the variable load Shell cards that went up to $250.
“Excludes the Kroger Family of Companies Gift Cards, Amazon Gift Cards, ALL PREPAID RELOADABLE DEBIT CARDS (Green Dot® & MoneyPaks®), ALL FINANCIAL VARIABLE LOAD CARDS (Mastercard® & Visa®) and fuel retailer gift cards.”
They’re excluded from the 4x, and Amazon has been excluded from the 4x for quite a while now.
But Amazon has been earning 2x even though it’s been excluded from 4x.
But in case you’re not aware, I was told by agent recently that you have scan both barcodes to reliably earn the points on a gift card. I was told this when I failed to get points on a gift card that qualified for 4x.
In fact, there a DoC article about Amazon and fuel retailer exemptions:
https://www.doctorofcredit.com/kroger-excludes-amazon-giftcards-from-earning-grocery-points/
where while the headline doesn’t state that, right below that it says that this applies “during 4x promotions”.
The article you linked to Doctor of Credit was an Miles Earn and Burn (MEAB) article thanking me for letting them know about the exclusion…
“Reader Oslo let me know that Kroger’s 4x fuel promotion has a new third-party gift card exclusion: In addition to Amazon, all fuel retailer cards are also excluded.”
There’s also a coupon for $5 off $50 Doordash GC at Harris Teeter (maybe Kroger too).
I also see that $5 of $50 Doordash GC coupon at Ralphs, as well as a $10 off $50 Spafinder GC coupon.
It’s back once again for this Friday, Jul 25, only, on both most third-party gift cards and on $25/$50/$100 Visa/MC gift cards.
At least at my local Ralphs, the coupons are a little disorganized this week on the main list.
I wasn’t sure if both of the gift card coupons were active, because it only showed me one of them near the top of the list, until I clicked on “4x Gift Card Event”, and only then did it show me both of them.
In other news, the 4x on most purchases this Friday is once again there, but the previously-stacking 4x on Simple Truth house brand isn’t there any more, after 4 weeks in a row of being there.
And given that the week that the 4x on Simple Truth appeared I mentioned the possibility of a strike, I heard on the news this week that apparently the strike has been called off because the workers and the grocery chains reached a deal.
Not only is the gift card offer back as noted above, but both the 4x on Friday only most purchases coupon is back, and the previously-found-to-be-stacked-with-it 4x on Simple Truth house brand is back all week (7/16-7/22).
I gotta drive more to be able to use all the fuel points I got from that double stack!
