Heads up, fuel-savvy travelers! Giant, Martin's, and Stop & Shop are back with their recurring offer: you can earn 3x fuel points on Mastercard gift card purchases! The offer is running 1/9-1/15 at some locations, so check your local circular to confirm the dates. These deals are great because they can also sometimes be stacked with other offers, like the current Chase Offer for 10% back at Stop & Shop.

Why is this good news? Because these fuel points can translate into serious savings at Shell gas stations or, even better, at the grocery store itself. Every 100 points gets you 10¢ off per gallon (up to 20 gallons), or a $1 discount on groceries. So, if you rack up 1,000 points, that's a sweet $1 off per gallon or $10 off your grocery bill!

Keep in mind a couple of things: Some stores have limits on gift card purchases (around $2,000 per day), and some may only give you points on the first purchase. So, plan accordingly and maximize your savings! Also, points can take a day to show up, and you have 30 days to choose whether you want to use them for gas or groceries, and another 30 days to actually use them. Happy fueling (and shopping)!
