A man in Phoenix is \u200b\u200blosing hundreds of dollars each day after shaving nearly 50 cents off per gallon at his gas station to help customers weather skyrocketing fuel prices.<\/b><\/p>\n

Jaswiendre Singh, who runs the business at the corner of Osborn Road and 20th Street, showed <\/span>Arizona’s Family<\/span> on Wednesday that he buys gas from a supplier for $ 5.66 per gallon but sells it for just $ 5.19 per gallon.<\/span><\/p>\n

Singh started <\/span>offering discounts<\/span> as early as March, decreasing the gas station’s purchase price by 10 cents. But with gas prices still on the rise, he wanted to help even more.<\/span><\/p>\n

“[I do it] to give a break to the customer and my community, \u201dSingh told Arizona’s Family. “People don’t have the money right now.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMy mother and my father did teach us to help if you have something,\u201d he continued. “If you have something you have to share with other people.”<\/span><\/p>\n

With the gas station selling around 1,000 gallons a day, Singh loses about $ 500 per day. As a result, he and his wife di lui are working longer hours.<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite the losses, Singh said they have been worth it: \u201cGod gave me help. It doesn’t matter. We are not here to make money right now. I’m very happy to help the other people. “<\/span><\/p>\n

Twitter users lauded Singh’s gesture. “Some heroes wear turbans,” one <\/span>wrote<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Another <\/span>commented<\/span><\/a>, \u201cA Real American. Good Job Mr. Singh. “<\/span><\/p>\n

This is not the first time Singh has helped his customers spend less money – in 2007, he reportedly bought the gas station and lowered prices during the recession the following year.<\/span><\/p>\n
