Kroger gas discount now good at Shell (Houston)
Guys, I just found out last night after visiting my Kroger's that their 10 cent/gallon gas discount is now honored at Shell stations. I don't know if that means everywhere, or just here (Houston). Very interesting. I'd much rather run V-Power with the additives than whatever the Kroger pumps are calling Premium.
Anyone know more about this?...

In Phoenix we have grocery stores called Fry's that I think is owned by Kroger, and they have had the 10 cents off thing for a few years.
Recently, I filled up at a Shell station and it asked if I was a Fry's VIP (for the discount)
I let my wife use the discount on her car as she drives more than me.

No Krogers stores in this area. Would be a nice incentive to use Shell if it is true.

I have been doing this for a month. Whenever I pull up to the pump at a Shell station, I just type in my phone number that my Kroger rewards membership is under and if I have accumulated enough points for the 10 cents off, it gives it to me at Shell. Today was the first day that I didn't get teh discount. Guess I need to spend more money at Kroger

The few times I have tried it at the Shell station, the Kroger card registered "invalid". Gave it back to the wife and it works fine at the grocery store.

I have been taking advantage of this for a couple of months now! Its great, although last week the Shell station was 0.07 cents higher than all other stations around the area.....go figure, corporate America at its finest I guess. I still bought it though because 3 cents a gallon puts me that much closer to an exhaust
