NEWBURGH, N.Y. -- CITGO Petroleum Corp. and local CITGO marketer Warex Terminals Corp. are teaming up to give back to their customers. Beginning yesterday and running through Oct. 14, the companies are co-hosting 26 customer appreciation days at locations throughout New York State.

During the events, which last for two days at each selected location, customers will receive 5 cents off per gallon of fuel purchased from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. In addition, the first 100 customers who sign up for the new CITGO Rewards credit card during each event will receive a free gift, as well as a $5 CITGO gift card.

"We know our business depends on our loyal customers," said Joseph Raineri, director of marketing for Warex Terminals. "We wanted to find a way to show them our appreciation and thank them for coming to support our locally owned stations across New York."
