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.
