Since BJ’s Wholesale club has launched the new High Octane Gas promo it’s easier than ever to save on a gas fill up. Yet BJ’s members have run into an issue where the secondary BJs member isn’t able to redeem those gas savings.
If you aren’t familiar with BJs new gas promo they now allow members to accumulate gas savings throughout the month. The catch is you need to use those gas savings by the last day of each month.
Here’s a question brought to my attention.
“Can the secondary person earn gas savings or only the primary?”
And the answer is you can only redeem the gas savings on your own membership card unless you do the following.
For example, if you buy three items off the High Octane Gas list on Oct. 4th you will save 30¢/gal of gas. Those gas savings are tied to your unique membership number. You can leave that day and choose to fill up on Oct. 15th and you will be able to save 30¢/gal of gas.
*Don’t forget to grab a $25 BJs membership deal here.
Let’s say your husband goes to BJs and buys two more high octane gas items and wants to get gas that day. He is now saving 20¢ off a gallon of gas, but he isn’t the primary.
When he goes to fill up he’ll only have the option for the 20¢ off not the total amount per household of 50¢/gal.
If this frustrates you like it did me and others, there is good news.
I had a popup the other day when I was signing into the BJs.com site and making a purchase. The popup told me the primary member on our account needs to go to our local BJs club and pick up a new membership card so everything is linked together. It confirmed our accounts will be joined and all savings will be on the one account.

If you are not seeing your awards shared from a BJs perks card you can add that option at bjs.com in your account or through the app.
You would hit access account. Then rewards. Be sure the box is checked to Share Awards with Household Member.
If you are wondering how to get your gas savings linked or having issues, head to your local BJs Wholesale club and bring up the issue and have the primary member get a new card.

great gas promo
if you use your BJs card it automatically takes off $0.10 so if you buy two items you only get an extra $0.10 off. For instance if I use my BJ’s credit card at the gas pump and only buy one item for the perk I still only get $0.10 off
If I use my BJ’s MasterCard and purchase 2 items on the high octane list I get 30 cents off per gallon; 10 cents for using my card plus the 20 cents for each of the listed items. Not sure why you’re not getting the extras 10 cents. I’d definitely go into the store with your gas receipt. The first time I had an issue with the older program with 25 cents off, the customer service rep fixed it right then and there for me. That was at the Southington CT store. I’ve also never had an issue getting my bonuses at the Wallingford CT store. Good luck & I hope you will be getting your money back!
I can’t be the only person who thought just photo copy the one primary card and only use that at the pump to scan the barcode, right? Seems simple but if they give you a new card and fix the issues that is a plus too.
