In response to rising fuel prices, Delek Israel is running a promotion offering free gasoline for six months to 30 members of its Delek Joe club. The campaign, which runs from October 8 to November 6, allows club members to enter a daily draw by purchasing at least 30 liters of fuel or spending 39 shekels or more at convenience stores. Each day, one winner will be selected to receive a fuel card worth 600 liters of 95-octane gasoline, valid for six months, averaging 100 liters per month. This promotion is notable in Israel, where fuel discounts are rare. It coincides with other offers, such as discounts on electric vehicle charging and 5-shekel hot dogs, aimed at encouraging customers to patronize specific fuel networks. Fuel companies appear concerned about consumer caution at the pump following a series of price hikes that began in May, and are attempting to boost sales. The current price for self-service 95-octane gasoline is 7.77 shekels per liter nationwide (7.20 shekels with discounts) and 6.58 shekels in Eilat. Full-service prices are 8.03 shekels per liter, or 6.80 shekels in Eilat. The total prize value is approximately 4,662 shekels, offering a monthly saving of about 777 shekels. For most family and hybrid car drivers covering 1,300-1,800 kilometers monthly, the 600 liters would cover most or all of their fuel expenses for half a year. The promotion requires downloading the Delek app but payment doesn't have to be made through it; participation is possible via credit card or cash. Purchases made with Delek Joe club points also qualify. The promotion is not valid at all Delek stations; only those that support the app. One fuel purchase transaction earns one entry, while each 39-shekel convenience store purchase earns one entry, with no limit on entries from store purchases. The prize is personal but transferable. Winners will be notified via email, phone, or registered mail. The prize cannot be exchanged for cash or other goods, and lost fuel cards will not be replaced. There is no monthly or weekly limit on fuel usage, but any unused portion of the 600 liters expires after six months. The offer cannot be converted to cash value or used for diesel fuel.
