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.

Anyone ever have a problem trying to fill up more than one car at once?

Then I have to subtract that $2 tip from my savings. It might not be worth it anymore  ;)

We were only able to squeeze 29 gallons into our 2 cars at 0.799!  Awesome prices.

I was thinking of going in Thursday (last day of the sale in my town) for another couple cards, to extend my month. I'm not optimistic there will be any left, though.

BTW, having done this deal at both Giant PA and Giant MD, I think I like the Giant PA deal better. You only get 25 gallons, but you can make it entirely free; instead of 35 gallons at $2.20 off (which at least is getting closer to free now that gas is below $3.00). The 35 gallon limit encourages me to "caravan" my family's cars to the station at the same time, which is a PITA. And it seems more fun in PA when the pump price is "zero." I also like how you get more time (until the end of the next month) to use the points.

I don't like using a gas can to refill my tank. I'm getting better at it, but it still seems like I always spill a little (I have an old can). It just doesn't seem like a terribly good idea.
Dan's deals, huh? Maybe that announcement generated a LOT of new interest in this deal, as I went to three Giants in Chesco, Pa., and they had zero VGCs, except a few $25 denoms ... the word is out! Burning up gas driving to find points for gas!

Nice! I think we should round up the troops and head down to Chesco, PA to make sure that all of the Giant stores within a 50 mile radius are cleaned out.
