A gas station in Chicago is offering drivers an unusual way to save on filling their tank while also filling their tummy.
The BP at the corner of North Western Avenue and West Fullerton Avenue in Logan Square that shares a parking lot with a Subway location is offering a 30 cent per gallon discount on regular gas with the purchase of three foot long sandwiches.
On Thursday afternoon, the station was advertising $5.69 per gallon with a purchase of three subs—a 30 cent difference from the $5.99 per gallon price without the sandwiches.
With gas in Chicago now averaging roughly $5.50 per gallon according to AAA, many drivers would surely welcome any opportunity to save at the pump.
Given Subway’s famous $5 foot long has long been a thing of the past, drivers would need spend at least $30 on sandwiches to secure the gas discount.
The cheapest foot long offered by Subway is just over $10, an employee of the store told NBC Chicago, and some are closer to $15, so quite a large tank would need to be filled for a driver to actually save money using the deal.
