Blood for Oil--Literally

PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- American Red Cross officials are offering the chance to win free gasoline as an incentive to get more people to donate blood.

This summer, each donor will automatically be entered in a drawing to win 35-hundred dollars' worth of gasoline. Entries for the first drawing, July 23rd, are already being accepted. An identical raffle will start July 23rd and run through September 16th.

Every day, the Red Cross also will award a 25-dollar gas card to a randomly selected donor.

The Red Cross chapter runs about 25 blood drives each day throughout southeastern Pennsylvania and parts of New Jersey. During summers, it struggles to get blood donations.

Allright, everyone.... How much do you love your SUV? Bleed for it, bitches!
