Shell, Jewel-Osco Team for Fuel Rewards Program

Shell and Jewel-Osco are teaming up to help Chicago-area shoppers get increased value on their everyday grocery purchases, by launching the “My Jewel-Osco Fuel Rewards” program.

Starting June 25, consumers who use their My Jewel-Osco Rewards Card when shopping at participating area Jewel-Osco stores will be able to earn Fuel Rewards savings, which may be redeemed at local participating Shell stations for discounts at the pump.

Consumers must scan the My Jewel-Osco Rewards Card when they check out at the store to earn Fuel Rewards savings. For every $50 spent on qualified purchases, consumers can earn a savings of five cents per gallon on fuel that’s redeemable on a single fill-up, up to 20 gallons, at any one of the more than 350 local participating Shell stations.

Fuel Rewards savings earned through My Jewel-Osco Fuel Rewards accumulate, so the more consumers spend at Jewel-Osco, the more Fuel Rewards savings they earn.

Qualifying purchases are automatically tracked, and each time the $50 threshold is met, another five-cents-per-gallon reward on fuel is earned. Fuel Rewards savings will expire the last day of the month following the month they were earned.

“We recognize that today’s consumers are continually looking for increased value, and the My Jewel-Osco Fuel Rewards program provides them with an easy way to save,” said Melissa Pursley, director of marketing at Jewel-Osco, a division of Minneapolis-based Supervalu. “We encourage everyone in the Chicago area to sign up for a My Jewel-Osco Rewards Card to start taking advantage of the savings.”

Later this year in the Chicago area, Excentus will also officially launch the Fuel Rewards Network (FRN) program at Houston-based Shell, a rewards program developed and operated by Dallas-based Excentus that will allow consumers to save significantly more at the pump by expanding the ways they can earn rewards.

My Jewel-Osco Fuel Rewards is part of the FRN program, and Chicagoland consumers will soon be able to combine rewards from their grocery purchases at Jewel-Osco with other everyday purchases such as clothing and dining out, for potentially huge savings at the pump.
