Bezos is busting into the gas business.
For Amazon Prime members, Fridays were no longer just the end of a long workweek or the start of a weekend list of to-dos. Thanks to the retail juggernaut, some drivers can receive a prime deal when they fill up their tanks.
When the discount runs
Amazon Prime members can receive an exclusive 25-cent-per-gallon gas bonus every Friday through the end of the year.
This under-the-radar earnify, but this TGI-Friday deal added an extra 15 cents to the savings.
Locations
Available at participating BP, Amoco and AM/PM stations across the country, the Amazon gas discount applies to all fuel grades and all participating stations, which take the total number of Amazon Prime gas discount locations to about 7,500 nationwide.
Amazon’s 10-cent-per-gallon discount already saves users an estimated $70 annually, so this extra Friday bonus boosts savings during what is expected to be a tight holiday time for family budgets.
Filling a 15-gallon tank each Friday earns $3.75, totaling nearly $40 over 10 weeks. This all-but-secret Prime benefit helps offset holiday costs amid tariffs and economic uncertainty.
Every bit counts, right?
