You Deserve Free Gas This Summer
Sunday May 11, 2008
Worried about heading to your favorite resort for some mountain biking, hiking or just exploring this summer? Before booking any lodging, call the resort chamber of commerce and ask if there's a "free gas" deal. Even tony Aspen in Colorado is offering free gas (up to $50, plus free bike rentals and bus passes) to travelers. Too ritzy a town for you? How about Big Bear in California, where the free gas card gives a traveler from $25 to $100 in gas, depending upon one's length of stay.
The number of "free gas" deals popping up to convince travelers to resort towns across the country is surprising - but understandable. Savvy resorts are afraid that even their regular "I've been going there forever" guests are cutting travel back with gas expected to climb to $4 or perhaps more by mid-summer.

This is great info. I work for a travel company – I’m constantly working to write about and encourage traveling, which has felt a bit uphill with this season’s gas prices. Glad I stumbled onto this!
