Using Fuel Points

These gas rewards have been devalued lately, but here’s how it works now. Every 100 points are worth $0.10 off per gallon on your fill up of up to 20 gallons. If you buy a $500 Visa gift card and you will receive 1000 points. That would be $1.00 off per gallon. Multiply that by how many gallons you can pump in one fill up, to calculate your profits. The limit is 20 gallons. The more you can pump in one transaction, the better the deal gets.

If you buy more than one gift card, you’ll obviously get more points but you can only redeem up to 1500 points per transaction at some locations, which is $1.50 off per gallon. Some places you can use even more.

Points can be reedemed at Stop & Shop gas stations and at participating Shell locations which can be found here. In New Jersey, savings apply after fueling at the posted price and will appear on the receipt. If you don’t have a Stop&Shop near you, the deal should be available at Grant as well.

Don’t buy too many cards if you don’t drive much and try to fill up with an empty tank to maximize your profits. I usually drive about 1300 miles per month, so this offer should add up to some nice savings.

Guru’s Wrap-Up

This is a good deal for people who drive since. 10X in fuel points could be worth as much as a 20% discount, if you maximize it with a 20 gallon fill up. And it gets even better if you use a credit card that earns most points at supermarkets and grocery stores to get as much as 6% back. It could work out even better if you use a Mastercard to get another discount of 15c/gallon for every $100 spent. Best Buy gift cards are probably the best option here since you can sell them for about 92-94%.
