Election Day Freebies: Voters Can Get Free Rides, Doughnuts, Massages
LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) — Election Day is upon us, and a few companies are ready to reward voters and poll workers for doing their civic duty.
For anyone who needs help getting to the polls, Hertz Rental Car is offering drivers a free day if renting for two or more days today or tomorrow. MTA is also offering free rides to any Angelenos heading out to cast a ballot.
Mass transit passengers in LA can also drop their ballots off in drop-off boxes at 19 rail and bus stations.
If you get hungry after casting your ballot, you can also score a free doughnut at Krispy Kreme if you wear your "I Voted" sticker. If you plan to stay up late to watch returns, Boston Market has a coupon for a free late-night slider after 9 p.m.
We'll keep you fed for the late night ahead. Free Late Night Slider after 9pm. Offer only available in restaurant. One coupon per person. Offer valid November 3rd only.
