I went grocery shopping with my mom yesterday at Price Chopper and then we went and filled up the gas tank with gasoline and she saved $2.20/gallon off her gasoline! How? By using the Fuel AdvantEdge program. For every $50 you spend at Price Chopper, you save 10 cents/gallon off your gasoline at participating Sunoco stations.
Obviously, to have saved $2.20/gallon, mom has been saving up her reward for quite a while. That or she spends a lot on groceries. I’ll never tell 
It probably helps a little that I shop there when I am here and use her card so she gets credit for my shopping too. But I don’t think my grocery budget puts too much of a dent into her gasoline savings 
She filled up for $1.99/gallon and all she had to do was buy groceries that she has to buy anyway. Pretty neat deal.
That is a neat deal. Groceries is something she has to get anyway, and now as an added bonus she saves on gas. That’s a good way to build customer loyalty. I even think it’s better than offering a discount on groceries because the relationship between shopping at that store and getting a benefit (cheaper gas) is more direct.
