Hard times require hard measures, but this is a but to extreme: a man from Indiana has admitted exchanging a $100 gas card for sex with a hooker.

The man was caught having sex with the girl and he admitted he paid for the action with a card good for gas at Speedway gas stations, along with other unspecified "gifts."

"A local prosecutor noted that it was sad to see someone selling their body for gas," The Smoking Gun Web site reported.

The girl caught in action was hit with a prostitution rap and also charged with doing business without an occupational license.
