While many have resorted to using public transportation and refraining from buying a cool glass of lemonade, a shop in Varanasi is encouraging people to not let go of these amenities by offering free petrol and lemons! Yes, you read that right. Now while you buy a brand new smartphone, you can take home a liter of petrol and a couple of lemons alongside it. So don't just enjoy the phone but also a free car ride and refreshing glass of lemonade to beat the heat. This might be the strangest offer ever. Read on to check details.

The incident was reported by Zee News and uploaded on their official Instagram handle, where the video went viral. In the trending video, a mobile shop can be seen which has put up promotional banners of these two new offers. The shop offers two lemons on every purchase of a mobile accessory worth Rs. 100 and one liter of petrol for purchasing a smartphone worth Rs. 10,000.
