Free Ride with Uber

A new car ride for hire service called Uber just launched in Orange County; it’s a free app that connects a private driver to you with a tap of a button. Based in San Francisco, Uber is now available in 18 countries as well as 24 cities in the U.S. Uber is offering Greer's OC readers a $20 credit by using the promo code 'OCDEV' through Tuesday. You can request a ride and be picked up within minutes. A new fleet will be arriving soon called UberX that will be cheaper than a taxi.

This code is good for first time riders only, anywhere in the U.S. 

To redeem a promotion code, you just need to apply that code to your Uber account prior to taking your ride. Here’s how:
