Noco from 10A- NOON. George Urban TODAY!
bs
It wouldnt even be worth the wait. People will line up for miles.
Amazing deal though :tup:
nope,not BS.Its a promotion with cricket phones and was on the news last night.
it’s only for the first 200 people or some shit and you’re limited to 15 gallons…and there’s already a huge line i guess.
word…and only on regular gas tooo…no premium
yep, was just on the news they already got 200 cars, and they said that people were getting in line for it last night.
jesus… people are fucking nuts when is comes to saving money on gas.
i mean yea… it’s nice, but i would camp out at a gas staion all night to save $2 a gallon
So you could save a whooping $30 for sitting in line probably 2 hours.
Then subtract the gas you will use sitting in that line idling.
Yeah, looks like money/time well spent. :bloated:
Edit: wow, I guess my 2 hour estimate was way off. What the fuck is wrong with people? It’s $30. That’s what, $3.75 an hour if you sit there 8 hours? And there is no way those people left their cars off the entire time, so by the time they take into account the gas they used they probably lost money.
Just so you guys know i left my apartment at 6:30 this morning and it was already getting packed there. Those fuckers need to get a job.
don’t people have jobs? I would only save like $20, I could go to work and make more than that.
It reminds me of the Simpsons episode where Homer found the jack knifed sugar truck and stole a bunch. Then he went around trying to sell sugar door to door.
Coming home to Marge:
Homer - “See Marge, while I was out selling sugar, I found a dollar”
Marge - “While you were out earning that dollar, you lost 40 by not going to work. The plant called and said that if you don’t come in tomorrow, don’t bother coming in Monday.”
Homer - “Whooo hoooo!!! Four Day Weekend!!”
Anyway, people are stupid.
people showed up around 7am-8am and for whatever reason the Noco employees decided to give out the 200 gas tickets at that time.
I give them credit for a good promo though, it has already been on TV.
What would that have cost them to actually buy TV time?
Yet another prime example of the intelectual prowess of the Average Joe :bloated:
honestly, gas is expensive…but i really could care less if it’s $2.98/gal or $3.65/gal.
I’m gonna get it either way and complaining about it does nothing.
i agree.
its another 10-20 a week… if that breaks you, then you need to drive less
Wow. I just watched the news article on this. The stupidity is just swarming around it.
15 gallons per person
$2 bucks cheaper per gallon
200 people
So people actually camped out overnight to save $30 bucks in gas. :bloated:
The best part was the guy from cricket they interviewed. “This is actually turning out quite costly for us. If you notice that gas is $2 dollars per gallon more across the street and do the math, this promotion is costing us $600,000 dollars.”
:bloated:
I hope this guy wasn’t their accountant. He was either an idiot or is trying to scam Cricket out of $540,000 dollars.
