The Fine Print
- Valid through May 2, 2018
Our Verdict
Between the two coupons, you can hopefully get an unlimited 4x fuel points on all gift cards with the exception of Kroger gift cards, Amex gift cards, and variable-load Visa/MC/Amex gift cards. Note, the 3rd-party offer states “participating gift cards” so it’s possible it won’t work on everything.
Fuel points earned in April will be valid through the end of May. Points earned in May will be valid through the end of June. Also, purchases during April can get 5% back with Chase Freedom and Discover IT cards as part of the quarterly categories.
The standard deal at Kroger is 2x fuel points on gift card purchases, and they’ll occasionally release offers for 4x. Usually, every 1000 fuel points will get you a discount of $1 per gallon with a 35-gallon limit, a max value of $35 per 1000-points, though these details do vary by store and region.
Hat tip to SD
Some places/stores (Fred Meyer in Oregon at least) give no points for fixed VGC/MCGC, thus no points for 4x either.
Anyone else have the same issue?
i did have this issue at freddies once. but then i called customer service and they added the points.
now i just buy amazon gift cards…can avoid the fee and maximize the deal (assuming you shop on amazon)
LOL, yeah my first foible was the Chase Amzn Prime that is in a 5/24 spot ( but I drop under next week), I mainly now just use it for Prime purchases (5%), Rx from KP code as drugstore for 2%, Fuel at Freddies/Costco also code as Gas for 2X. I normally cash them to our checking, rather using to purchase on Amazon as you loose the 5% using points for purchases, but I may just bank them and try to see if I can transfer them to UR for 1.5X points I read they sometimes do it as a 1X courtesy but YMMV.
NICE!
I just invested in 3 5 gallon gas cans to milk these 4x fuel point offers.
so buy $100 amazon gift cards on my 5% Freedom card for $10
Earn 800FP + current 213 balance = 1000FP = $1/gallon x 28 gallons = a total profit of 38 tax free dollars…yes please!
Do these work at kroger family stores too? Kroger bought the local pick n save a while back and i see it on kroger when I login but not pick n save. If I load via kroger’s site, will it work? anyone know? if not I’ll test it.
I don’t see the coupon showing for Pick n Save (check ‘Coupon Link”, above).
It worked for my Kroger affiliate on the West coast, I found the regular 4X in the stores coupons, but couldn’t find the Visa/MC in the list but clicked through above link and click load coupon the 4X GC showed that it was already loaded on the Kroger link, checked My coupons and the Visa/MC was added.
BUMMER that it doesn’t included MC variloads that could be used for Mortgages thru Plastiq for hitting MSR.
Where are you/what chain? Fred Meyer in Oregon gives zero points for fixed VGC/MCGC, thus the 4x coupon also gives zero.
Freddy’s also I usually use the self check outs, but in the past when I’ve had issues with points not posting many of the Red vests can manually add them to your account (if they know how and if the store is not super busy, I use a browser instead of the app and with prior Visa/MC deals it will show 4X in bold on the receipt I have seen points post 24 hours late, but you can go to past purchases as well as points and see points added as well as points used. I use them on my work rigs (dual tanks).
I don’t see it in Ralphs either
Ralphs is all messed up on this. The weekly ad flyer and the in-store kiosk both say you have to load the coupon, but when you go to the Ralph’s website there is no coupon to load. If you click on Promos, it has “add coupon” links for other promos but no such link when you scroll down to the 4x on gift cards promo.
Fuel points expire the month following when they are earned. Points earned in April expire May 31st and points earned in May expire June 30th.
Let me fix that, thanks
