The Offer

- Receive 4x fuel points on the purchase gift cards from Kroger.
Typically, Kroger stores offer 2x fuel points on gift card purchases, and they’ll occasionally release offers like this one to get 4x fuel points.
It appears that all gift cards will be included in this offer, double check at the store on Saturday that this is true. In the past, there have been mixed reports on whether fixed-denomination Visa/MC/Amex gift cards worked to trigger the bonus fuel points.
This bonus 4x offer is also showing for the other stores in the Kroger chain as well, such as Smiths, Fred Meyer, etc.
The Fine Print
- Valid Saturday 1/23/16 only
- Be sure to verify that this offer is available at your local Kroger store
- Remember to use a Kroger card to get the points
Our Verdict
Usually, every 1000 points gets you a discount of $1 per gallon with a 35-gallon limit, for a total value of up to $35 per 1000-points. These details do vary by store and region.
If you purchase a $250 gift card you’d earn 1,000 points which can save you a max of $35 on a 35-gallon tank – a 14% discount on the gift cards. You can also receive bonus grocery store rewards on your credit card for Kroger purchases.
To maximize the deal even further, remember that you can get free cell phone service with Kroger when you earn fuel rewards points; no points are used up, this is an additional free benefit of the fuel points which you get besides for the free gas.

does the fixed amt VGC like $200 earn 4x?
the local manager said no bonus pts for fixed VGC/MGC; also a sign shows that a purchase at any amount will require ID… getting harder to buy these VGC
It didn’t show up for King Soopers…maybe location based? I’m in Denver.
Hmm, I saw it for some of the others, maybe not KS for some reason.
