Buy groceries and save money on gas

 Local businesses team up for Pump Perks Program

Today more than ever, consumers are searching for ways to save money.  And shoppers at the Hitchcock’s Market in Alachua are discovering there is more to saving money at the store than using coupons and shopping sales.

In partnership with Bob’s Mobil gas station, the grocery store has launched the Pump Perks fuel reward program.  With qualified purchases, customers can earn discounts on fuel that may result in paying as low as 10.9 cents per gallon on up to 15 gallons.

The Pump Perks program is in full swing at the Hitchcock’s Markets Alachua location at 15560 NW US Hwy 441, and the fuel rewards are redeemable at Bob’s Mobil, 16091 NW US Hwy 441 in Alachua.

“Hitchcock’s Markets is very excited to offer our Alachua customers an opportunity to earn discounts on fuel with their everyday grocery purchases,” said Hitchcock’s Wayne Josleyn. “This is an excellent partnership with Mobil that will really benefit our community.”

To participate in the program, shoppers at Hitchcock’s Markets pick up their free Pump Perks rewards card at the service desk, purchase specially marked items throughout the store and have their card scanned while checking out to earn cents off a gallon of gas. Eligible products are identified with the Pump Perks symbol throughout the store, and customers receive the per gallon savings shown on the shelf tag.  There are 1,500 rotating items that are currently part of the program.

The fuel discount is redeemed locally at Bob’s Mobil and applies for up to 15 gallons of gas in a single fill up. The Pump Perks card may be scanned at the pump for the discount, or inside with the cashier. Other participating gas stations are located in Jasper and Interlachen.
