The Save Mart and S-Mart Foods Rewards programs are free programs where consumers will earn Fuel Rewards simply by making qualified purchases at store locations. The Save Mart and S-Mart Foods Rewards programs are part of the Fuel Rewards Network, allowing Save [image-nocss] Mart and S-Mart Foods customers to redeem Fuel Rewards at more than 100 participating area Shell stations.
For every $50 in qualified purchases at Save Mart or S-Mart Foods using the new Save Mart or S-Mart Foods Rewards Cards, a 5-cents-per-gallon discount on fuel is earned and redeemable on a single fillup, up to 20 gallons of fuel per purchase. Additionally, Fuel Rewards are cumulative--the more shoppers spend, the more they earn. For example, if a customer spends $100, they will earn a 10-cents-per-gallon discount, if they spend $150, they earn a 15-cents-per-gallon discount, etc. Shoppers also do nothave to spend $50 in one transaction. Purchases are automatically tracked and each time the $50 threshold is met, another 5-cents-per-gallon discount on fuel is earned.
