Hate the Gas Tax? Get a Discount at a New Jersey Pizzeria…
The infamous gas tax went into effect on Tuesday, November 1st here in the Garden State. Your wallet just got a little bit lighter... However, one NJ pizzeria owner wants to give you a discount for getting screwed by the government!
God Bless America!
But you need to drive to North Jersey.... Kinda counter-productive, but the story is still pretty cool!
The owner of Rezza Trattoria, John Bendokas, in Roseland is offering a "gas tax rebate" by giving his customers a discount equivalent to the extra dough they will be forking out at the pump.
According to NJ.com,
Customers at his Italian restaurant on Eisenhower Parkway need only present a receipt from the gas station. Bendokas calls it his Gas Tax Rebate.
The discount, Bendokas estimates, would amount to about $2.50 on average.
"I thought it would be a good way to give back to the community and kind of give them a little reprieve from it, at least at the beginning," he told the station.
Kudos to this guy! It's the New Jersey way!
