I have saved as much as $.70 per gallon – make sure to provide your Kroger card when filling prescriptions! Note that my husband and I wait until we are at 1/4 or less and then go together. We fill my van, hold the nozzle, pull up and fill his car. We would get my son in on the action – but his “Benz” only takes premium. We have purchased up to 32 gallons – what a savings!

Thanks for commenting, Anonymous! This specific fuel rewards program is different by region. I think they are starting in a select number of cities before they expand more broadly.

Those 91 points from January do not combine with the February points. At Kroger fuel centers, you can get $0.40 off if you have at least 400 points for example. At Shell, you can only use the $0.10 discount so you would subtract 100 points from your Kroger card. If you go to the web site: http://www.kroger.com/in_store/fuel/Pages/default.aspx, it explains the fuel program.

Notice in the Toledo area, that for only 50 points you can receive a $0.20 discount!

3 Ways to Save on Fuel:
In Toledo, Portsmouth, Waverly and Wheelersburg, Ohio

1. Spend $50 at your local pharmacy and receive $.20 cents off your fuel purchase.*

2. Spend $50 or more on gift cards and receive $.20 cents off your fuel purchase.**

3. Spend $50 or more on groceries and receive $.20 cents off your fuel purchase.

The gas rewards are different due to the areas being under two different operating divisions. Kroger is working to get gas rewards across the country, but they have to get all of the different systems to ‘talk’ to each other…until that happens….

I know you’re “off” this week, so I’ll look forward to next week to hear what Kroger said. We just had a triple coupon weekend (they’re usually a 4-day event), and I’d be happy to have you come along the next time! Our Kroger also routinely doubles up to 99-cents; some stores even 30 minutes away don’t do that. I’m sure it’s all part of a very strategic marketing plan, but it’s definitely confusing at times!

Carolyn (and all), I am going to participate on a conference call tomorrow with Kroger regarding this new partnership. I will ask those questions. I’ve had the SAME question, at least, on the triple coupons. I want some of that triplying ya’ll get up North!!

This is great. :) I really hope they expand this to Texas. I have to go so far out of my way to use the Kroger fuel points, and we regularly stop at a Shell station, so this would be perfect for us. :)

This is all new to me and I tried to understand it on the Kroger Fuel Rewards website but didn’t understand.

With the Kroger fuel rewards do you know how many rewards = cents? ie. How many cents off per gallon would 91 points get me? Are they the same at the Kroger Fuel Station and Shell?

Also, do you know if I have 91 points in January and they expire 2/28, if I get gas once in February trying to use those January points, would I be able to use all of those January points or does it use February points too? is there a limit of how many reward points I use in one fill up?

Thanks so much for your help once again!

I wonder why the gas rewards are different between Central Ohio and Cincinnati? I’m an hour north of Columbus, and we get cents-off per gallon based on what we spend, ie, 10-cents off each gallon if you spend between $150-299 in a month, 20-cents for spending $300-450, etc. (so my discount this month is based on last month’s spending). You get 4 fill-ups a month (sometimes 8, if they’re running a promotion) with that discount. And I can’t use any type of discount if I use my loyalty card at a Kroger pump down there; it starts all over with the Cincinnati reward system. We’re in the Cincinnati are frequently, so it’d be nice if it was a uniform program.

This is great news since our local krogers doesnt have gas pumps. I have never even paid attention to the gas rewards because of that.

i wonder,.. on the kroger website it says with your Kroger Mastercard you can save .15 per gallon – does that also apply at Shell?
