I’m sure you’re aware of the new Jewel promotion that started the 19th: get 1 point for every $1 spent on groceries or pharmacy items and 2 points for every $1 spent on gift cards. Spend $100 and get 10¢ off each gallon of Shell gas or $200 for 20¢ off. “No Gas Rewards will accrue to points that do not reach the next $100 dollar threshold, and such points expire at the end of the calendar month in which they are earned. Gas Rewards earned during each month may be used only through the end of the following calendar month (for example, Gas Rewards earned in January expire at the end of February). Gas Rewards savings are limited to 20 gallons of fuel per purchase, per vehicle, or fraud limits placed by Shell and/or limits placed on your payment card by your financial institution, each of which may be lower.” My rewards show I need 40 more points to reach the next threshold, so I probably spent $60 before coupons today. or $2 on a couple of cans of biscuits…
If you don’t enter your MyMixx number at the time of purchase, you’re pretty much SOL, since the front desk can only add points at $50 price points. All purchases apply to your threshold – even a candy bar – as long as the number is entered but otherwise, no. Silly, when you think of all the other loyalty programs out there like Speedy Rewards or Panera that let you go online and enter the receipt info.
