With the Fourth of July weekend fast approaching, a lot of people will be traveling and spending a lot. But Kentucky Fried Chicken aims to be of assistance as they open their own “filling” station along I-80 which coincides with the launch of their $5 Fill-up Boxes.
Just for that day, the Big Ten Mart in Davenport, Iowa will be transformed into a KFC Filling Station. Patrons will pay $5 for up to 15 gallons worth of gas plus a KFC gift check for a $5 Fill-Up Box. All dollars collected at the KFC Filling Station will be donated to the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety, a not-for-profit charity dedicated to saving lives and reducing injuries on the roads via public education.
“Fourth of July travelers will log an average of 614 miles roundtrip this upcoming holiday weekend,” said Gail Weinholzer, Director of Public Affairs for AAA Iowa. “For just a $5 donation to AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety, KFC will top off both gas tanks and stomachs to introduce their new $5 Fill-Up Box.”
