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.


How many cats do you have?

I'm guessing he has two? I spend about 1/2 that on food. I buy the
litter in bulk and it lasts forever.

I was just curious. I have a 100 pound dog and he only eats about $15
a month in food, plus whatever he gets from our meat scraps. I spend
more on dog treats.
Every good deed gets a "cookie". The up side to that is he is getting
a lot more civilized. Not bad for a "3 time loser" at the pound.

Based on that, 200# of cats = over a dozen fat cats - if any of it were
true.
