Our Verdict
This offer is only for Giant Eagle, I don’t think it’s available for Giant, Stopandshop, and Martin’s locations. Similar deals are available at Stopandshop, Meijer, and Publix.
Presumably, it’s limited to one per customer since it needs an Advantage card scanned in. I like that it doesn’t require a coupon – discount will come off automatically at checkout. Use a card that earns a high rate at grocery stores or use Apple Pay with Chase or Amex if you were targeted for those offers to get a bonus.
Hat tip to reader Scott
What happened to the Public digital MasterCard $10 coupon?
Confirm that it can be used multiple times. Putting it on the Amex EDP for 4.5x MR. Anyone knows if RAT goes after GCs for ongoing spend rewards or is it just sign up/retention bonuses?
Can you use the same advantage card and credit card to get this bonus multiple times? I purchased 1 today and might pick up a couple more.
The latter. Their terms don’t prohibit gift card purchases in general, just on the sign-up/retention bonuses now to thwart churners. Lots of MS may be a different matter though. Besides, I don’t think they have a way of knowing exactly what you bought at a grocery store unless they’re targeting you personally for some reason and put in the effort to call the company requesting detailed data about what you bought. Thirdly, they have offers for buying Amex GCs on their own cards from time to time so it wouldn’t make much sense to go after all GC purchases.
This is more than one time. max $200 card. I did one card in each transaction. U do get fuel perks from these Visa cards and giant eagle doesn’t have a limit on fuel perk amount u can redeem each time. U can potentially get gas for free, up to 30 gal.
I liked previous deals better where you got double fuel perks. That actually is better than this little discount and just standard perks.
I can literally smell that Safeway is next up!
You wish?
Fingers crossed
. *deleted — as you do link to your march 25 posting of the similar Giant/S&S/Martin’s deal. ($15 off $250)
Is there a fee to load the card?
$5.95 for variables up to $500. So if you get two, you pay $1.90 in fees for $1k in VGCs.
Have you recently purchased $500 visas at this chain? its not giant/stopnshop. They don’t sell $500s at giant eagle so your best bet is getting $200 vgc for ~197 1 time. Nothing to get too excited about.
right, $200 are max…
