To be entered in the contest, registered Rutter's Rewards cardholders make qualifying purchases during a specified promotional period.

The Rutter's Rewards program allows customers to earn cents-off-per-gallon rewards on each purchase of more than 1,600 eligible items throughout each store each time they scan their Rutter's Rewards card. The rewards are immediately redeemable and valid for 60 days from the date on which they are earned.
The Fuel Up Free Contest began at Rutter's stores on May 23, 2011, and will continue though September.
