[Expired] Giant, Stop&Shop, Martin’s: Get 5x Fuel Points On All Third-Party Giftcards

Update 11/21/22: This may have expired early, per GCG

The Offer

Stop&ShopGiant (pg 7), Martin’s

Giant/Stopandshop/Martin’s have an offer showing in their circular, valid for November 4th – 24th:

  • Get 5x fuel points on all third-party gift card purchases when you use your store loyalty card.

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. Visa and Mastercard gift cards are excluded from this offer, and presumably Giant/SS gift cards are excluded as well.

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

5x is nice, and it’s the gifting season now too. 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 grocery stores or stack with the Supermarket Amex Offer.

Note, many SS/Giant stores have implemented a $2,000 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 $2,000 worth in a single transaction. The fine print of this offer implies that you get $2,000 across the entire week.

This did not expire. I just went yesterday and purchased $750 in Amazon gift cards and got credit. Going back for more here in a bit.

It’s interesting that in the fine print of terms, both Giant and Martins says “purchase of these participating gift cards”, while Stop&Shop didn’t say that. This is somewhat contrary to the bigger “all gift cards” text.
Purchased 1000 dollars of amazon from Giant Maryland, points didn’t post automatically. Guess I will have to call tomorrow to find out.

Made a phone call and the customer care agent was able to manually add the points.

Do you get points if you purchase an e-gift card online, or does it have to be purchased at a store in person?

Just an FYI, Giant Maryland has some really good special point offers right now. You can get a gallon of milk, 3 pounds of clementines, a pound of store brand bacon, or a case of water for 100 points each.

Sign up for a free Stop & Shop card and create online account. At the store, present your Stop & Shop card and buy GCs. On your account, you can redeem points for grocery dollars. $1 spent on GCs earns 5 points during the promotion, and 100 points can be redeemed for $1 off groceries when you scan your card at checkout. You have 30 days to redeem points once earned, and 30 days to redeem your grocery discount once redeemed. Ex. I bought a $500 Amazon GC with my Stop & Shop card. I now have 2,500 points. I can redeem these points for $25 off groceries.
