Part 1/7:
Amazon Offers Discounted Gas to Prime Members
Amazon has announced a new benefit for its Prime members - 10 cents off per gallon at thousands of gas stations across the country. To activate the discount, Prime members need to register their phone number, which they can then use at participating BP, Amoco, and ARCO gas stations.
This move appears to be part of the ongoing competition between Amazon and Walmart, as the two retail giants continue to offer similar perks and features to attract and retain customers. Walmart has had a similar mobile gas station discount program for some time, and Amazon is now countering with its own offering.
