Deal has ended, view more Giant deals by clicking here.

Update 3/11/25: Deal is back, think the dates are 3/14-3/20 (check your local circular to confirm dates in your area)

The Offer

Stop&Shop, Giant, Martin’s

Giant/Stopandshop/Martin’s have an offer showing in their upcoming circular:

• Get 2x/3x fuel points on the purchase Visa gift cards.

Gift cards generally don’t earn fuel points at all at Giant/S&S/Martin’s, but occasionally they release offers like this to get points on gift card purchases.

Gas Points Details

Every 100 points gets you 10¢ off per gallon at Shell, up to 20 gallons. If you have 1000 points, you’ll get $1 off. If you have 1500 points, you’ll get $1.50 off per gallon (max $1.50 discount in most). Points can be used at partner Shell locations.

Points are now usable on groceries as well, with a value of 100 points equaling a $1 discount.

• You have 30 days to select whether you want to use the points on gas or groceries, then 30 days to actually use them.
• See the FAQ for more details. Some of the details vary by area and store.
• Points usually are available immediately, but I’ve had on occasion where it took a day until they showed up and were usable.

Our Verdict

Given that points can be used to discount groceries as well these deals are more widely useful. Use a card that earns a bonus at the grocery. Stack with 10% Chase Offer. 

Note, many SS/Giant stores have implemented a $1,500 limit in gift card purchases each day (previously the limit was $5,000). They also require putting it all on a single card. Also note that some SS/Giant stores now only award points for the first purchase of the deal, so be sure to buy the full $1,500 worth in a single transaction.
