The Offer
- Receive 4x fuel points on the purchase gift cards from Kroger.
Presumably this deal will work at all the other stores in the Kroger chain as well, such as Smiths, Fred Meyer, etc.
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.
In the past, there have been mixed reports on whether fixed-denomination Visa/MC/Amex gift cards worked to trigger the bonus fuel points. Any third-party gift card will work to get the bonus points.
The Fine Print
- Valid 11/19/15 – 12/8/15
- Be sure to verify that this offer is on in 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. This does vary by store and region.
If you purchased a $250 gift card you’d earn 1,000 points which would save you $35 on a 35-gallon tank, or a 14% discount on the gift cards. You can also earn bonus credit card rewards as Kroger should code as a grocery store and many credit cards offer that as a category bonus.
To maximize the deal even further, remember that you can get free cell phone service with Kroger when you earn fuel rewards points; you don’t use up  points for this, this is an additional free benefit of the fuel points which you get besides for the free gas.
