Note the fine print: "Giant Gas Rewards points will expire 30 days from date of issuance." So, all
Harry has to do is spend $1000 at Giant in 30 days, and within the same 30 days he can save $1 per
gallon on gas.


So, in order to get a $1.00 per gallon discount, you must spend $1000 to earn 1000 points.


Gee, what a math whiz...

Just to add to the fun:

Every week, I spend the following at Giant on our indoor pets:

Petfood * * * * *$ 30
Clean Litter * * $ 52

That's $82 a week x 4 weeks = $328. That's 328 of 1000 points.


Maybe Herring should buy the $1000.00 worth of food, and drop it off
to the nearest Mission, to feed the less-fortunate.
