Select Las Vegas Circle K Stores Offering Forty Cents Off Per Gallon

Circle K offering forty cents off per gallon pop up event in Las Vegas

How would you like to fill your gas tank up for 40 cents off per gallon? You’ll have to look for it, but it’s happening!

Circle K Pop Offering Forty Cents Per Gallon Off In Las Vegas

Yes, it’s true. Select Circle K locations throughout Las Vegas will be offering 40 cents off per gallon of gas for a very limited period on Thursday, according to News 3 Las Vegas 3.

The company announced it will hold its Fuel Day Pop-Up Thursday, Nov. 30 at participating locations between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m., PST. And new customers who sign up for the Circle K rewards program can get an additional 25 cents off per gallon.

News 3 Las Vegas reports that Morten Jensen, vice president of regional operations for the Circle K Grand Canyon region, said in a news release: “We know the weeks ahead of the holidays can be busy, and we are always looking for ways to delight our customers and make their lives a bit easier.”

We are all spending a lot more money right now. Tis the season! So a little break in gas prices would definitely help!

Which Circle K Stores Are Participating?

What Circle K stores will be offering the discounts? Well, since it’s a pop-up event, no one knows right now. Because most likely, people would camp out, arguments and fighting would happen (in true Las Vegas style). And I’m pretty sure they do not want that! But you can get more information at Circle K.

The pop-up will only be available at participating Circle K locations in Arizona and Nevada. The price on the pump will  show the discounted price while the offer is in place, Channel 3 reported.

Here’s hoping you are one of those lucky people to save a chunk of change on gas. Every little bit helps — especially this time of year!

Weird Las Vegas Street Names And Where They Came From

Las Vegas street names – where did they come from, and why?

Las Vegas is a place of extremes. We probably have the brightest artificial light in the known universe shining from the Luxor pyramid every night – to the extent that pilots can’t fly directly over it for fear of piercing a retina. We have the tallest building between Chicago and the west coast., with the Stratosphere Tower. We have more hotel rooms per capita than – well, probably anywhere. More shows, more casinos, more restaurants in a three mile stretch of road on the strip, than most cities have in a lifetime.

We have to eventually run out of street names, right? Which is not good, because street names help you get you where you’re going.

Weird Street Names In Las Vegas

Naming streets in Las Vegas was easy – at first. Early downtown Las Vegas named streets going one direction after Nevada pioneers like Clark, Fremont and Carson. The cross streets got numbers, starting with First Street, which was just one block east of Main Street. Main Street was next to the railroad on the spot where the city began. In the original North Las Vegas the streets were mostly named after people, – simple enough.

Henderson was founded as a company town as a part of the war effort during World War Two.

The street names include Basic, which is the name of the company where the water for Basic Industries flows (now underground,) and a whole lot of mineral names: Lead, Silver, and Perlite. State names, ocean names (Atlantic and Pacific) and to top it off, Army, Navy, Major and Minor.

During an early optimistic period what is now the industrial development west of the Strip used names of stars, like Polaris, Procyon, Regulus, Capella, Sirius, Rigel, Pollux, and Aldebaran. Not bad.

Then there are the celebrity streets. You know, Joe W. Brown Drive, Frank Sinatra Drive, Dean Martin Drive, Wynn Road, Elvis Presley Street, and many that are actually minor streets but still are named after famous Las Vegas people.

There’s still a lot of building going on in Las Vegas – what are YOUR suggestions for road names?

And here are some weird street names from other cities in the state of Nevada
