One idea would be to create an ad section in your newspaper. Then if the gas station is not willing to distribute them for free tell them you will give them a free ad in the paper. Doesn't really cost you anything and you could get your paper in the stations that way. Then when your paper gets some exposure you will find it easier to place them in the stations. My experience dealing with convenience stores is this: they always want something in return. They have SO many people wanting to put things in their stores..... The only ones I have dealt with that didn't want something in return I personally knew the owner/manager.

Hope this helps... Ron
