Mastercard and Citibank are giving away free subway rides next week.  If you ride the  you could be riding like 20 times for free.  It is quite the promotion…at least we think.

Unfortnately, there are a couple obvious catches.  You have to get into the system through the  lines, and you must have a Citibank card.  Dear people at Chase: Please get with the program!

You may have seen the little touchless sensors on the turnstiles at these stations.  The technology is what really gets SUBWAYblogger excited.  This would totally be a better way to go than the MetroCard.  If this worked for all cards, it would be awesome.  Just pass your credit/check card over the sensor and go.
