It's crazy to think that a gas station is a required visit during a vacation or a road trip. But that's how Texans feel about Buc-ee's. Some of it is the pride that it is a Texas based and Texas owned company. Most of it is just the experience of making a stop there. From gifts to home décor to great food, it's a fun stop for anyone. For us in East Texas, it's an easy drive to Terrell, Texas to visit the Buc-ee's there. But what if I told you that a company would pay $1,000 just for you to try Buc-ee's snacks and food? There is one and here is how to apply.

What You'll Have to Do
