As the price of gas continues to rise across the country and oil’s cost-per-barrel is peaking throughout the world, travelers are continually seeking new outlets to conserve their tanks as well as their wallets. For the past 5 years, guests of participating BedandBreakfast.com properties will find themselves treated to their own fill-up through the BedandBreakfast.com “Tanks a Lot!” promotion, in which inns offer free gas to B&B travelers, as well as a number of creative offers to reward guests for conserving gas and to say “Tank You” for traveling.

Bed and Breakfasts in more than 40 states, the Caribbean Islands and 3 Canadian provinces have created more than 150 money-saving deals for “inngoers”.

Some properties, like The Colonial Terrace in Carmel, CA, Pilgrim’s Inn and Cottages in Deer Isle, Maine, and Wilder Farm Inn in Waitsfield, Vermont, are offering discount incentives to guests arriving in hybrid vehicles, while others such as The Ruby of Crested Butte in Colorado and The Floating Feather Inn in Ocean Shores, Washington, offer similar incentives to guests who carpool to and from the property.

Establishments also offer geotourism-minded incentives, such as the White Swan Inn in Whitehall, Michigan, which offers discounts to guests that donate to the local community’s programs.
