How to Save at The Pump with Shell and the Fuel Rewards® Program
Summer is upon us and for my family that means road trips! As a family of 5 who loves to travel, we spend a lot of time driving because it is the most cost-effective way for us to be able to get out and explore. Whether we are traveling all the way up to Boston to visit family, or finding a fun place here in Florida to spend the weekend, we enjoy being on the go. This also means we go through a lot of gas, so I am always on the lookout for the best way to save at the pump.
Shell has been my go-to gas station for as long as I can remember because they have such convenient locations for me. There was a Shell gas station close to my parents’ house growing up, close to my first job, close to my house when I moved out on my own, and now that I have moved across the country, there is still a location less than a block away. When I learned about the *Fuel Rewards® program at Shell it was a no brainer for me to sign up, when a company you are already loyal to, gives you a great way to save money, you do it!
So, I was thrilled to have the recent opportunity to team up with Shell on a 5-part series throughout the next 6 months to bring you, my readers, travel and money saving tips while showing you all the awesome ways you can save with Shell and the Fuel Rewards® loyalty program’s “Instant Gold Status”.
Instant Gold Status
Shell has launched an amazing campaign, giving Fuel Rewards® program members Instant Gold Status free through December 2017 and rewarding them with automatic savings of 5 cents a gallon on every fill-up (up to 20 gallons per fill up). If you are not a Fuel Rewards® program member, now is the perfect time to sign up!
How to Earn Rewards with the Fuel Rewards® program
On top of the amazing 5 cents a gallon savings you receive from the “Instant Gold Status”, you can stack your Fuel Rewards® savings with rewards from the shopping, dining, and traveling you are already doing, by linking your credit card to your Fuel Rewards® account. I was shocked at the number of brands that participate in this program, which makes earning Fuel Rewards savings incredibly simple.
I earn Fuel Rewards savings at the restaurants my family normally dines at, the store I usually by our groceries at, and even the hotels we stay at while traveling. This program has become a huge part of my budget plan both when I’m traveling and during everyday life.
We have three more road trips planned over the next several months, one to Orlando, another to the Space Coast of Florida, and we will be traveling up to South Carolina over the holidays. I hope you will follow us to learn all our budget travel trips, and make sure you become #InstantGold before your next fill up.
I’m always on the road, so this fuel rewards is perfect for me. Anytime I can save, I’m all over it.
I SO need this!
I have this, and it’s great.
Saving at the pump is a great way to start a fun road trip.
Roads trips are always fun but they can be quite expensive when travelling long distances. How great that Shell provides a fuel rewards program.
What a great program! I love ANY program that saves me money on gas, because let’s face it gasoline is one of those necessities that we all need, and the price always seems to increase. I am going to have to find out more about this program!
Who doesn’t love to save at the gas pump?
Gas is so expensive! Living in Florida, in the panhandle, I can tell you our prices are insanely high. Always above the national average. I’ll have to look into this because I had no idea it existed, and we are always looking for ways to save money on fuel.
Oh cool, we need to save money, so I’ll keep this in mind. I always love rewards cards.
We need all the savings we can get!
Saving at the pump makes a huge difference for summer travel.
Sounds like a great program rewards program. It’s always great to save money on gas!
These are such awesome tips and it sounds like a great program to be a part of!! We don’t have this in Canada, but I wish we did because gas is SO expensive!!
What a great way to save money on fuel. For a person who is on the road a lot like me, you’d want to save as much as you can. I wish we had this program here.
I could definitely use this for my road trip planned for later this summer!
I loved this gas station when I was a kid.
I think it’s awesome that Shell has this rewards program! Gas isn’t exactly cheap and when you’re going on a road trip it would be nice to save as much as possible!
I am all about saving money, especially on gas!! WHY is it so expensive?? ugh. Thanks for the heads up on the shell fuel rewards program!!
I love rewards program! It comes in handy whenever you need a penny especially if you don’t have it sometimes!
I love saving on gas.
We went on a road trip in the beginning of July and had a blast.
Wow, sounds like a good reward program and I really need this since I’m always on the road
Road trips can be so much fun.
What a great reward program. I will have to share this with the hubs. We won’t pass up on savings such as this.
I seriously love rewards and points! that is so awesome
Saving money on gas is challenging but with rewards programs like this, it makes it easier! I love it
Wow! Super helpful, who says no to this, right?! 😀
We went on a road trip to Richmond, Virginia. We had the best time!
These are some great ideas for our road trips. We take at least one yearly road trip. Gas is by far one of the greatest ways we can save on our trip.
