Mistake Leads to 29-Cent Gas Price

2 hours, 32 minutes ago


LINCOLN, Neb. - One gas station manager's mistake paid off for Lincoln drivers who were in the right place at the right time Friday.

For 30 to 45 minutes, three of the Kabredlo's Convenience Store's four pumps sold premium unleaded gas for 29 cents a gallon.

Gas hasn't been that cheap since 1955, according to AAA Nebraska.

As news of the cheap fuel spread, lines formed at the store at 2305 R St., said Max Wolfe, who was doing landscaping for Kabredlo's.

Wolfe and his co-workers took time out to fill up. "I was on E, and I filled my tank up for $4," Wolfe said. "It made my day."

Nathan Olson said he usually pays $72 to fill his gas-guzzling 1998 Ford F-150. Friday, he filled the tank three-quarters full for $3.50.

The store manager who said she made the mistake didn't give her name.

On average, Lincoln gas stations are charging $2.93 a gallon for gas, according to AAA.

I would kill for 29 cents, hell I would take 2.93, it was 3.15 the other day by me.

I was really tempted to get my gas there but the lines were so long after the 6pm news, I said "Screw it."

What a ****ING schuck!!!! Dude is used to paying $72 to fill his truck, so today when the gas was lower than it's been probably since long before he was born, he only puts in 3/4 of a tank.

Some people deserve to be slapped... publically.... repeatedly!

Errr. I'd hope that he had a 1/4 tank of gas so that's all he could put in. If not, then I agree with you.
