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.

For better value, link Fuel Rewards to your Stop & Shop card.

I was transferred to the customer service desk when I was in the middle of purchasing gift cards, and completely neglected to give my Giant card to the customer service rep. I lost out on 3,000 gas points as a result. Is there any way I can get the points retroactively? I have all the receipts with me. I just don't know if it's a bad idea to call in because I paid via credit card and I don't know if it would be bad to draw attention to that.

They should be able to do it for you. Just don't give a whole speech about it, tell them you forgot to give your card and would like to have them at the points.
I only paid 15% by switching to dansdeals

The CS the store can add it manually with the receipt. At least in S&S they can.

Thanks, that's what I was told over the phone as well. I'll head over there again today and try to work it out.

Shouldn't be an issue, but don't do it too often.

Thank you all, it worked great, and I was able to have all points added back to my account (plus the new ones from the cards I purchased today).

I went today with my friend to get some gift cards. The customer service rep said that they have a limit of $5k per day per person including the fees. So she allowed me to buy up to $5k including the fees. My friend bought only 9 x $500 and he went to another location and the system allowed him to buy only 1 $500 card. Looks like its hard coded.
Anyone else had such a experience?

His S&S card, I would guess. Did you use the same card, or multiple cards?

I actually forgot to scan my card this morning. But when I did 7k at once I used my card.

My point exactly. I was asking the person who DIDN'T have this problem, because maybe what you experienced is a new thing. ;)

Not hard coded. They only write you in the dumb book,  they don't scan your license
