Based on the fact that for me, Costco gas is slightly cheaper than Kroger, I have been getting an additional 8-10% off all gift cards through this deal. Pay with the American Express Blue Cash Preferred to get an additional 6% back (slightly less since there is a $95 annual fee). It's a very easy way to save an extra 14-16% off on things you already buy.
Of course, check other avenues to see if you can get even better discounted gift cards online, but only if you are ok with the risk involved with the third party dealers. I'm not against them and have used them many times but you just need to be aware and accept the risk.
Buy a 5 gallon can or two to get you to the max 35 gallon fill ups to maximize savings. Been doing this for almost 4 years. It's not very much work for $700 - $1000 return for me every year.
Also, some people don't like the visa/MasterCard gift cards because of the fees, but I'll also buy those and use them at Costco since the approximately 5% off Howe cards after the gas points beats even the 2% back on the Costco Citi credit card. To each his own, but you can sav money there also.

How you get 7-9%
For every $250 you spend on GCs during this promotions, you earn 1000 pts, which equals $35 off a 35 gallon gas purchase.
According to the app, I've saved over $700 just this year on rewards this way.
