Sheetz will offer veterans and active-duty military personnel a free half turkey sub with extras and a free regular-sized fountain drink at more than 850 locations on Wednesday, November 11, Veterans Day. A free car wash for the $9.99 option is available at participating locations with car wash facilities, and proof of military service is required to redeem the offer.

Why it matters

The promotion gives service members and veterans a no-cost meal and car wash on the holiday honoring their service. Proof of military service is required, which limits the offer to eligible individuals.

Sheetz is offering the promotion at more than 850 locations, with the car wash benefit tied to the $9.99 option at stores that have car wash facilities. The company has not disclosed how many veterans or service members are expected to redeem the offer or its total cost.
