***If you buy gift cards outside promotions, you will earn ZERO points.***

Giant MD and Stop & Shop's points now stack with Shell's Fuel Rewards. See more here.
If you link a Mastercard to Fuel Rewards, you will earn an additional $0.15/gal for every $100 spent on anything at Giant/S&S with that card through the end of the year.


Accepted tender: Cash, credit, and debit. Also available are mobile/contactless payment (Apple Pay, etc.) and mobile loyalty (card barcode via app).

Summary
Stop & Shop (S&S), Giant Food Stores (Giant PA), and Giant Food (Giant MD) offer points for purchases which can be redeemed for a discount on the price paid per gallon on fuel sales at Shell and S&S/Giant fuel stations. $100* spend = 100 pts = 10c/gal discount. The particular rules vary between the three brands, and within Giant PA, the rules vary by location. Refer to the bottom of this wiki post for more information or links to official info from each brand.

Feel free to update this Wiki or suggest improvements. The goal is to help all of us spend less on gas!

Additional Information

• A loyalty card is required to take advantage of gas rewards. They look like the above image and can be obtained either online (links at end of wiki) or in-person (at the customer service counter).

• The cards currently on promotion are listed in the current weekly circular and usually change every week. VISA and MC from Metabank or US Bank for $20-$500 (plus $5.95 fee) work. For GCs, if it meets the previous requirements, the packaging (blue, silver, birthday cake, etc.) doesn't matter! Check the issuing bank on the back.

• S&S and Giant (DC, DE, MD, and VA) allow you to redeem up to 1500 points ($1.50/gal) per fuel purchase, and points expire 30 days after the qualifying purchase. With Giant PA, there is no limit to the number of points redeemed at one time.

• Points earned in one program cannot be used in another program.

• Your ID may be required when buying gift cards. Your name and other info may also be recorded for purchases over a discretionary dollar value. Whether you're buying a $100 card or a $5k stack, your experience will vary.

• You can view your account online using the link at the bottom of the wiki.

• It's best to purchase gift cards at the customer service counter, but reports state that a single $500 gift card can be paid for at any register without an issue. Purchases over $1k will require manager authorisation with a physical key, which may slow down the queue. You can go to the Solution Center to save time and make things easier for everyone.

• Giant Eagle and Giant Food are different chains with different ownership, and this thread is not relevant to the former.

• If you have more points in your account than are redeemed for a fuel purchase, then the remaining points will stay in your account until their respective expiration date(s). For example, if you have 2500 points and debit the 1500 ($1.50/gal) maximum, you will have 1000 points left. Similar behaviour if gas is ever below $1.50/gal before discount.

• If you don't receive eligible points with your purchase due to system or human error, you can have them retroactively added by customer service (in-store or by phone). Have your receipt and a copy of the advert. It can take up to 24 hours for keyed points to appear in your account.

Question Gas in Eastern PA / NYS using NJ S&S points?

I posted a few years back that I was able to use S&S (NJ) points at a Shell in VA.

Could someone clarify what the Wiki of "Points earned in one program cannot be used in another program." means?

I'm driving through Eastern PA and NYS towards Toronto. Will my NJ S&S points work at a Shell in that area (or a Giant supermarket with gas)?

My NY S&S points work in NJ, so I don't see why NJ points wouldn't work in NY.

Thanks for the feedback FrankMS. I was more asking about the Giant [PA] locale / Shell's (Scranton, PA area) and more western NY (away from the Hudson area) such as by Binghamton and northwestern towards Buffalo.

Try this page. Scroll down to the lower left where it says "find a participating gas station."

The ones you can search on the stop&shop gas locator? I didnt search it though. I saw a shell and tried it and it worked. Just put in S&S # into the pump.

Is your card linked to Shell Fuel Rewards?

Just drove from NJ to Toronto last weekend.

There are no Shell stations in New York on the way to Toronto. Binghamton, Syracuse, Rochester, all have none. There are a few near Scranton and New Milford, but a bit of a detour.

The Giant Gas in Scranton is the last available Giant Gas on the way to Toronto, by the way. I've actually never tried to use my S&S card at Giant Gas, but guess I will one day.

I'm hoping if S&S gets linked with Fuel Rewards that some day I can use my points in Plattsburgh on the way to Montreal.

Side note: Acme's gas rewards didn't work at the Sunoco station I checked in Buffalo.

S&S website looks different this morning.. Really different...

The Stop & Shop Gas Rewards Program is just another way of saying thanks for shopping with us.

You have 30000 points available, which enables you to a $30.00/gallon discount.

Gas points expire the last day of the month following the one in which they were received. Points can be redeemed up until midnight on the expiration date.

30000 points will expire on 08/19/2017

That's what the verbiage is like at Giant PA.

I saw the same upon log-in, but I was still limited to $1.50/gal when I fueled up this afternoon.

S&S'ers -- Maybe you should check the T&Cs, sounds like maybe they have been revised to be same/similar to Giant Landover, i.e., limit of $1.50 discount per gallon.

Mine is linked to Fuel Rewards, I consistently get $1.55/gal discount.
