***The special gift card promo was slated to end today, but signs inside my store indicated it had been extended through December 4th!
Wow! Safeway is running an awesome bonus fuel rewards promotion right now where you can earn up to $1 off per gallon at the pump! Saving on gas is always hard, so when I see promotions like these I get super excited! Here’s what you need to know:
- This program does not have an expiration date, though through October 29th you can earn 4x the points for select gift card purchases (exclusions: American Express, PayPower, MasterCard, My Choice, Safeway, Visa, Only 1 Visa, Netspend and RE-loadit Gift Cards).
- Points are earned as follows:
- Every $1 spent on groceries = 1 point
- Every $1 spent on qualifying gift cards = 2 points (8 points per dollar through October 29th)
- Every prescription filled = 50 points
- Points can be redeemed as follows:
- 100 points = 10¢ per gallon reward
- 200 points = 20¢ per gallon reward
- 500 points = 50¢ per gallon reward
- 1000 points = $1 per gallon reward
- Rewards expire the end of the following month in which they were earned.
- Previous and current months’ points do not combine.
- You will be given the option at the pump to choose how many points you redeem towards your rewards.
