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.

Will they at least sell a single $500 card and accept payment via credit card? Do they have them in stock?

It seems that they have them in stock, but they made a limit in how much money you can buy in GC"s. You should still be able to buy a $500 GC, why not? It'll just take some more effort.

Does it make sense that the receipt had the correct updated total... But online is still coming up with yesterday's total? If I fill up tomorrow morning (I know it can take 24 hrs to update) will it go according to the receipt total or online?

You need to assume that there isn't such a glitch in their system. I would assume it'll go with the online total (updated one). Otherwise, you have discovered something.

Cool. I wonder if this is stackable with the Stop and Shop gas rewards. Gas would almost be free!

I just added the t&c to my op. It's not as simple as it sounded at first.

Is there any way to use both the FRN & the S&S cards in the transaction?

I don't think so. Because when you go to the pump and press rewards program you have. A choice of stop and shop " OR " FRN.

I was thinking as follows: Put the S&S in by the pump, & when you go to pay, ask the dude to scan your S&S card. Perhaps they can scan both inside. Does anybody here have both cards & would be willing to try & report back?

Not all stations participate in both programs. The one that I noticed had both made you choose one

Whomever hid the Visa gift Cards at the Ave Y store in Brooklyn did a really sloppy job. It took me about 2 minutes to find it!! :)

They have a promo now of 400 points for buying 9 items from a list that includes cans of pitted olives and cereal... This is a great way to get the full value of 2 x 2200 buy only buying $1k in GC's.
