Tax prep service gives away free gas

ATLANTA (CBS ATLANTA) -

There were surprisingly no long lines at a southwest Atlanta gas giveaway today.

A local tax preparation company, Tax City, Inc. is giving away $20 in free gas. The only catch? Drivers need to bring in their W-2 forms to the Tax City office to get a free quote on your tax return. 

"People respond to free gas in this economy," said Cyrus Ellison, Tax City Inc. owner. "Everybody has somewhere to go. We want to help out in that process, especially with your tax return."

Drivers like Andrew Gilchrease were surprised that there were no long lines for the gas. Gilchrease thinks it's because the process to get the free gas was long. Tax City, Inc. is located at 565 Joseph E. Lowery Blvd. SW Suite A, Atlanta, GA  30310. The gas station you'll get free gas at is the Exxon down the street. 

About 200 - 300 people will be able to walk away with free gas.
