Continued Relief
The price reduction of Unleaded 88 is the latest promotion from Sheetz. The convenience store and fuel retailer rolled back prices at the pump more than once this year to provide customers with some relief:
- In honor of Independence Day, Sheetz reduced the price of fuel to $3.99 per gallon for Unleaded 88 and $3.49 for a gallon of E85. At the time, the national average gas price hovered around the $5 mark, as Convenience Store News previously reported.
- To commemorate Truck Driver Appreciation Week (Sept. 11–17), Sheetz dropped the price of diesel fuel to $4.49 per gallon. The promotion ran from Labor Day (Sept. 5) through Sept. 30.
Additionally, the retailer teamed up with the Pennsylvania Lottery for the "Free Gas for a Year" contest. Through Sept. 30, customers at all 299 Sheetz locations across Pennsylvania had the chance to win free gas for a year by purchasing a lottery ticket.
Altoona-based Sheetz operates more than 650 convenience stores throughout Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland, Ohio and North Carolina.
