Enrollment is limited.  Offer valid for in-store and online purchases at Supermarket locations in the U.S and U.S. websites. Valid only for purchases shipped in the U.S. For purposes of this offer, "Supermarket" means a store whose primary business comes from the sale of a variety of foods and household products such as meat, fresh produce, dairy, canned and packaged goods, household cleaners, pharmacy products and pet supplies. The following are NOT considered supermarkets: specialty food stores, small grocery stores, gourmet shops, convenience stores, drug stores, natural food stores and superstores including warehouse clubs, big box stores, and hypermarkets. Must add offer to Card and use the same Card to redeem. Only U.S.-issued American Express® Cards that are enrolled in the Membership Rewards® program at the time of purchase are eligible. Your enrollment of an eligible American Express Card for this offer extends only to that Card. Your enrollment does not extend to any other Cards that may be linked to your account (such as Additional Cards). Limit 1 enrolled Card per American Express online account and limit of 1,500 Membership Rewards points per Card. Offer is non-transferable. These extra points are in addition to any points you would normally receive for purchases on your Card under the terms of the Membership Rewards program. When we calculate the extra points benefit for Amex EveryDay® Card products, points awarded under this offer will not be included. Extra points may be reversed if a qualifying purchase is returned or cancelled. Extra points will be credited to your Membership Rewards program account within 90 days after 8/31/16, provided that American Express receives information from the merchant about your qualifying purchase. If American Express does not receive information that identifies your transaction as qualifying for the offer, you will not receive the extra points. For example, your transaction will not qualify if it is not made directly with the merchant. In addition, in most cases, you will not receive the extra points if your transaction is made with an electronic wallet or through a third party. Terms and conditions for the Membership Rewards, as well as annual Program fees, may apply for certain Card products. Visit program membershiprewards.com/terms or call 1-800-AXP-EARN (297-3276) for more information. Participating partners and available rewards are subject to change without notice. The value of Membership Rewards points varies according to how you choose to use them. To learn more, go to www.membershiprewards.com/pointsinfo.

Careful with CTRL+F because most will type in 1500 which will result in 0 results. 1,500 is needed in order to show it.

Thanks.
