Using High Gas Prices To Make Sales

Wisebread:

Good news for those who shop for food and gas in the Northeast and Canada.

Shaw’s Market and Irving Oil are teaming up to save you money. In a recurring promotion for both retailers, Shaw’s will give you a coupon worth ten cents off every gallon of gas that you purchase at a participating Irving BlueCanoe, or Mainway Stations. The more groceries that you may need, the more you could potentially save.

Here’s how it works: for every $50.00 you spend on groceries, Shaw’s will give you a coupon worth ten cents off every gallon of gas at participating stations. If you spend $100.00, you’ll get twenty cents off, and $200.00 gets you forty cents off., and so on.

For more information about the promotion, as well as locations of participating stores and gas stations, check out the Shaw’s Rewards website.

Editor’s Note: Any business could set up a similar promotion with a local gas retailer. It’s not going to make the business rich, but it does bring in traffic for a nominal expense.

    I hate to admit it, but I’d possibly be more willing to shop at a specific store if they offered a setup like that where I could save money on gas. On a good day it’s not hard for us to go well over $100, sometimes $150 every two weeks in groceries. $.20 to $.30 saved on gas would be pretty nice.
