Giant, Stop&Shop, Martin’s: 2x Fuel Points on Mastercard Gift Cards (9/12-9/18) – Doctor Of Credit
Update 9/11/25: Offer is back for 9/12 – 9/18. (ht to reader Barry Brown) Be sure to check your local circulars before purchasing.

The Offer

Stop&Shop, Giant, Martin’s

Giant/Stopandshop/Martin’s have an offer for the week of October 8th through 14th:

Get 3x fuel points on the purchase Mastercard 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 Chase Offer for 10% back at Stop & Shop.

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, 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.

Update 5/29/25: Check your local circular – deal is coming back from 5/30 – 6/5 (ht Gerald)

Update 10/28/21: Deal is back for 10/29 – 11/4. Hat tip to GCGalore

Our Verdict

6x is better than we usually see, and it will work on top gift cards like Amazon and Best Buy. Given that points can be used to discount groceries as well these deals are more widely useful. It can potentially amount to 6% back when redeemed for groceries or 12% back when redeemed for gas. Use a card that earns a bonus at grocery stores.
