The petroleum industry may deny it, but motorists all know that gas prices tend to go up right before a long weekend, according to FlightNetwork.com.
As Torontonians look to fill up before hitting the road tomorrow, many of them are expected to head over to the Tru-Value Gas Bar at 933 Warden Avenue (Eglinton Ave. East and Warden Ave.), where FlightNetwork.com is dropping the price of gas by 50 cents per litre, giving consumers a much needed break on ever-rising fuel costs.
The deal is in promotion of FlightNetwork.com’s new Price Drop Protection plan (PDP). The PDP, a free program exclusive to FlightNetwork.com customers on all economy flights, allows consumers to track flight price drops after they buy and, when a price drop occurs, lock in the savings.
“Due to fluctuating prices, Canadians worry about the best time to book a flight or fill their tanks,” said Gail Rivett, chief marketing officer of FlightNetwork.com, in a statement. “Our new Price Drop Protection plan takes the guess work out of booking flights, while our gas price drop promotion takes the guess work out of when to fill up at the pumps. In either case, it’s all about knowing that you have locked in the best deal.”
The price drop begins at 8:00 a.m. and runs until 20,000 litres of price-dropped gas runs out (estimated to be 4-5 hours). Each vehicle will be entitled to 50 litres at the discounted price – gas can fill-ups are not permitted. Patrons can also expect some fun random giveaways on-site.

What a great promotion leading
What a great promotion leading into the long weekend! If it weren’t so far away I’d go and fill up for sure.
Quite innovative. Definitely got my attention.
Nice! This is creative. Had me visiting their website and searching for flight prices right after reading this article.
Well done flightnetwork
Clever promotional idea, although I don’t think it’s worth battling millions of cars to save $20 or $30 on a tank of gas!
