GasBuddy issued the following announcement on Feb. 28

Coupons, sales, cash back and rebates – it’s all one big way of saying SAVING MONEY. “Stack savings” have been known to bring shoppers’ grocery bills down to zero and save them a lot of money on everyday purchases.  

Did you know you can stack savings at the pump too? Most gas stations offer a loyalty program, app or rewards card to help you save money at the pump. And many of them can be used in combination with Pay with GasBuddy to save upwards of 50¢/gal every fill up. We know that with today’s gas prices, we’re all looking to get those extra cents off. Here are some of our favorite “stacks” to save you the most money, and how to make them happen: 

SHELL FUEL REWARDS + PAY WITH GASBUDDY

Shell Fuel Rewards gold status members get 5 cents off/gallon. With the base 5¢/gal in savings from Shell Fuel rewards plus Pay with GasBuddy that provides an additional discount of up to 25¢/gal off…you just maximized your fuel savings. 

How to stack: Enter your Shell Fuel Rewards number at a Shell gas station pump and then swipe your Pay with GasBuddy card to pay for your gas. Easy as that! 

KROGER FUEL POINTS + PAY WITH GASBUDDY 

Same idea here. Kroger’s Fuel Points program lets drivers earn points from shopping at Kroger stores via delivery, in person or online with purchases including groceries, pharmaceuticals and gift cards. Up to 1,000 Kroger points can be redeemed for up to $1/gal at Kroger Family of Stores Fuel Centers. Alternatively, 100 Kroger points can be redeemed for 10¢/gal off at participating Shell stations. 

How to stack: Scan your Shoppers card or enter your alt-id at Kroger and follow the pump prompt instructions. Then swipe your Pay with GasBuddy card to pay for your gas.  

CIRCLE K 

Earns you 10 points per gallon plus 20 points per dollar on snacks, food, and non-alcoholic beverages. You save $2 for every 2,000 points earned. 

QUICKTRIP 

Every $2 in qualified merchandise and every 2 gallons of gasoline purchased earns one rewards point. Each point is worth 1 cent off per gallon. 

HONORABLE MENTION: GASBACK 

Ready to get crazy? You can earn free gas from making everyday purchases within the GasBuddy app from retailers like Walmart, The Home Depot, and Petco.  

Like cashback, when you shop with GasBuddy partners you will get a percentage back that will appear in your Pay with GasBuddy account that can be redeemed during your next fuel purchase. There’s no limit to how much you can earn, and some offers even give upwards of $10 in gas towards your next fill-up.
