7-Eleven 7Rewards
Every 1,000 points you earn through the 7Rewards program is good for $1 in actual money that you can redeem at checkout for a discount — and you earn points with nearly every dollar you spend at America’s biggest convenience store chain. You can also redeem points for goodies like Slurpees and snacks. If 90 days pass without any activity in the app, you’ll lose your points, but all you have to do is make a purchase or redeem points once every three months to keep your rewards in good standing forever.
