Tucsonans get rewarded with free gas
Posted: Oct 31, 2008 02:35 AM
About 300 cars lined up at a Midtown gas station this morning to get their hands on some free gas.
It was Allstate Insurance’s way of thanking Tucson drivers for being among the nation’s safest. They gave away about $8,000 of gas during the promotion between 6 a.m. and 7 a.m.
Travis Hungerford is one of many who generic lamisil woke up early for the giveaway. He waited an hour for 10 gallons of free gas. A moment he calls a godsend and worth the wait.
“Gas these days is like the difference between survival,” Hungerford said. “And it’s very important for low income families to get gas.”
He and his wife have a newborn and things are really tight at home. Just like it is for Roxanne, who’s celebrating her 22nd birthday. Now it’s extra special, because she’ll be able to drive up to Phoenix to be with her family.
“I don’t get paid until tomorrow and I didn’t know how I was going get there, and I heard about this last night, it’s going help out so much. I think I’m even going have enough to get back,” Roxanne said.
About 300 people waited for the free gas. Perhaps the most excited? Customer number one who got in line five-and-a-half hours before the giveaway.
