NEW YORK (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) December 8, 2008 --
Shoppers can stretch gift-giving budgets further this holiday season. In
a nationwide promotion, American Express is offering shoppers a prepaid
Gas Card worth $15 and up to 25% off Avis Rent A Car rentals when they
purchase three American Express® Gift Cards of any value at
participating retailers, shopping centers, AAA Clubs, banks and American
Express Travel Services offices through December 31, 2008.
The American Express Gift Card can be purchased in denominations ranging
from $25 to $500, and is accepted at U.S. retailers, restaurants and
merchants where American Express Cards are welcome.
“This holiday season when many shoppers are watching their gift-buying
dollars closely, choosing to give American Express Gift Cards makes
sense because recipients can use them as they wish: for a little luxury
at a time when they really need to treat themselves, for a great deal on
marked-down merchandise, or for necessities like groceries,” said Stefan
Happ, General Manager, American Express Gift Cards. “We’re pleased to
offer a gift to our customers, in the form of free gas and car rental
discounts.”
Shoppers can take advantage of this promotion by purchasing in person
any three American Express Gift Cards at participating locations,
completing a rebate form found in-store or online at
americanexpress.com/gascard, and mailing it along with the original
purchase receipt to the address on the rebate form. All forms must be
received by January 22, 2009, with a limit of one Gas Card per
household. A list of participating locations can be found at
americanexpress.com/gascard
Upon receipt of the completed rebate form, a Gas Card worth $15 and an
Avis promotion code will be mailed back within 60 days. The Gas Card can
be redeemed for three months after the date of issue for purchases at
U.S. gasoline retailers that accept American Express. The Gas Card must
be presented to a cashier for processing and is not for use at the pump.
Avis discounts vary by state for car rentals and rental fees must be
charged in full to any American Express Card when using the promotional
code.
In addition to the American Express Gift Card, American Express offers
themed Gift Cards, including Gift Cards Especially(SM) for
Kids, Teens, Birthdays, Dining,
Movie Lovers, the Bride and Groom, and Thank You. All American Express
Gift Cards come with special offers available at best-of-brand
