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.

This time around there are no limits on redeeming per account
But 1 per transaction is hard coded
Thanks.

Its a good play but the issue is it is not really scaleable without traveling around. most stores will get annoyed at you for using VGC for GC at some point.
I asked cashier is she doesn't mind, she said why should I?
and there are abt 15 registers, so not a problem if one gets upset.
I went in the evening, had zero wait in both stores. Both were within a 5 minute drive, and time I would waste anyway.

Discussion over there shows that multiple people could not find it in the circular for various stores but got points anyway. I too did not find it in the circular but made the purchase anyway and received the points.

If points show on the bottom of the receipt then they will post to the account.

I did not see it in the flier, but an ad for 3x was posted on the VGC rack in the store.

Yesterday in S&S in Toms River, system wouldn't let me pay for Amazon GC using S&S GC.
You were able to do that before? Either way that is not what we were talking about...

When I swipe a Stop & Shop gift card when paying for a gift card along with other items, the register automatically charges the Stop & Shop gift card only for the amount of the other items. No surprise that it would not work to pay for an Amazon gift card.

That's exactly what the comment on DOC was talking about,

Looks like @haltkup didn't actually halt kup to what it said.
No the comment on DOC is talking about buying any gift card with a CC
