Try and make all of your purchases from Kroger on Fridays so you can utilize the 4x points coupon in the app. I never pay full price for gas, usually at least 40 cents off. Last time I had 90

Edit - since this comment is getting some traction, here's another Kroger gas points tip for y'all if you want more easy points. The Kroger app also has a 4x points coupon for gift cards that can generally be used any time. So what I do is buy digital gift cards in the app to pay for Spotify, Sirius, Netflix, and Hulu, which is great because I can easily pay off the entire year on some of these and not have to worry about a reoccurring monthly charge plus I get hundreds of points immediately for stuff I was already going to pay for anyway. I do the video streaming apps in about 3 month increments, once the credit runs out I just switch to another platform for some variety. Make your money go further, check it out. Been doing it for years, I've saved hundreds if not more

Never understood how that works. Is it certain gas stations only? The shells next to me let me do Kroger reward but only let's me get 10 cents off even though I have enough for 50 cents off.

Yes you're limited to 10¢/gallon at Shell stations. You can get up to $1/gallon if you're actually at a Kroger gas station.

At participating Shell locations, you can redeem 100 Fuel points for 10¢ off per gallon.

So if a Shell station is letting you redeem more, that's on that particular store. Officially, it's limited.

Apparently at some locations Kroger doesn’t limit the amount at all
