Get Gas For 35 Cents a Gallon!




chevronoil prices5 Get Gas For 35 Cents a Gallon!We all know price at the gas pump is too high. It seems like its getting higher and higher everyday. What if you can pump gas at 35 cents a gallon?

Would you tell the gas attendant the price for the gas might be a mistake because it is too cheap?

The Wilmington Star News reported on this past Friday (April 11, 2008) that hundreds of drivers lined up at a BP station for cheap gas. How cheap is the gas?

The gas price at the BP station located in Wilmington, North Carolina was “accidentally” set at 35 cents a gallon! As a result, traffic was backed up and police were called to control the crowd.

Not one single customer said a single word to the gas attendants about the gas price. They just get the gas, pay the price and go. The gas price was supposed to be $3.35 a gallon.

It was not until around 6 p.m. that the gas attendants found out about the mistake. They found out because of the heavy traffic and mainly because of calling their district manager for permission to change the price as a way of stemming the flow of customers.

What a lucky day for the drivers living near the BP station in Wilmington, North Carolina. Paying 35 cents is much better then paying over $3 a gallon for gas.

Get Money In Your Mailbox

What would you do if you found $10,000 in cash in your mailbox?

That’s what happened to an unemployed 61 year old man in Japan. One particular day he went to get his mail and found one million dollar ($10,000 US dollars) in cash from an anonymous benefactor. Along with the money was a note saying, “Please make use of this in your everyday life,” written with a black ballpoint pen.

Instead of following the advice, the jobless man turned the money over to the police.

The person who left the money in the mail box has until June 27 to claim the money or the money will belong to the unemployed man.

If you think getting one million yen in cash in the mailbox is a lot of money, this is even better. Last year, in the city of Kyoto, a 67 year old woman received an envelope containing 10 million yen ($100,650 US dollars) of cash in her mailbox.

I would not mind at all getting large sum of money in mail. Maybe I should move to Japan and see if my luck could bring me those money by mail.

What would you do if this happen to you?
