Topic Wiki

The deal: 2x, 3x, 4x (or rarely, 5x) Gas Points per GC at Stop and Shop and Giant stores. Sometimes it's all GCs, sometimes just one or two types. Be sure to look at the current circular carefully for details

Credit cards CAN now be used to purchase visa/MC/Amex gift cards. :D

You will not get any Stop & Shop points on Gift Cards that are bought when there is no promotion.

You can get 1 Gas Point for every dollar you spend at S&S, Giant or Peapod all the time, and there are usually a few options in the circular to get bonus points, besides GCs. Be sure to have your S&S card scanned before purchasing or you won't get any Gas Points. You usually have to pay for GCs at the Customer Service desk, which may or may not ask for ID.

Gas Points expire 30 days after they are earned. You can check your current balance by logging in here: http://www.stopandshop.com/savings-and-rewards/rewards-program/gas-rewards/. There is also quite a bit of good general information about how the program works at that link, including a way to look up participating Shell stations and Stop & Shop stores with gas stations.

Gas Points are redeemable at Stop & Shop stores with gas stations and at participating Shell stations only. Not all Shell stations participate. It is recommended that you find out about station participation before driving around looking for one with your gas light on. :)

The link above also has instructions about how to redeem your Gas Points at Shell both within and outside of NJ. (NJ outlaws self-service gas, so it has a little bit different procedure than in other states.)

The maximum redemption is 1500 points per fill, or $1.50 off per gallon, up to 20 gallons, but be aware that if you or the attendant enters your S&S card, your full point balance up to 1500 will be taken for any size fill. Any remaining points above 1500 will remain in your account. The minimum redemption is 100 points ($0.10 off/gal). Any discount you have available from the Fuel Rewards program is in addition to the Stop & Shop discount. For example, if you have 2000 Stop & Shop points and a $0.35 discount from Fuel Rewards, you can purchase gas for $1.85 off per gallon (the maximum $1.50 discount from Stop & Shop plus the Fuel Rewards discount).

Please use
your common sense and do not ruin this deal for others (and yourself) by doing various things that might antagonize or aggravate gas station attendants in your attempt to maximize the 20 gallon limit per redemption. (For instance, the official rules at the link above say that a redemption may be used for one vehicle only.)

Abusing this deal will only mean that gas station owners will be less likely to continue to participate, and that S&S and Shell will be less likely to continue the program going forward.

To get the Cash price without paying cash you can get a refillable shell GC here: http://www.shell.us/products-services/shell-cards/refillable.html
It's refillable online by Visa or Mastercard. Even better: buy a Shell GC at Staples using an Ink card, and get 5 points per dollar.

I couldn't care less if it was posted here, as long as it doesnt make ddms
If it makes it to ddms it's only because it was here first.

Although Dan does not make any money off posting this deal (no affiliate links), it still brings traffic to his site. IMHO he should post it, but maybe wait a day or two. Because even if he posts it on the last day that it's available, it'll still have people scrambling to the site to read more about it.

This is definitely not one of the easier deals which would attract major attention, as there is more work than just buying the GC's. But i do agree it will boost the clicks and i have no problem if it is posted.

there you go, you don't know what it means that when this goes main site, there is not s&s in the tri state area with any cards, and now because of the last big one most that I go to haven't restocked since!!
The last time they ran this, Dan held back and didn't post it, because of all the negative feedback from the prior time. Hopefully, he sticks to that and doesn't post it this time either.

Also keep in mind that guys kill it on the shell end too. When I started doing this the 2 shells near me where happy to help. The last time they ran this promo I had to deal with disgruntled gas attendants telling me that it's illegal to fill up once the pump stops (top off)! (For my minivan that's like 5 gallons extra!)

That's ridiculous. My Honda Odyssey clicks off at 16 gallons and I can put over 23 gallons in it easily.

don't forget to tip the attendant (especially if doing multiple cars) $3 can go a long way!

i get my circulars early.  be aware that there is a malfunction and gas stations are only giving 10 cents a gallon regardless of how many gas points you have. I called in and they extended my gas points until a month from today as a result.

Yup that's what I drive although mine usually clicks off at about 18. Out of curiosity does anyone have any clue why some companies do that.. To make it click off early, is it a safety feature?
