Drivers looking to save at the pump during their Thanksgiving trip home may want to stop at Sheetz.
The EastCoast gas and convenience store chain announced this week that it would slash unleaded 88 prices by 40 cents until the end of November to help customers save at the pump.
According to Sheetz, the deal will be available at 505 of the company’s 750 locations.
Despite its discount, Sheetz could rake in serious gas profits. According to AAA estimates, 80 million Americans are expected to travel for Thanksgiving, with over 90% by car.
This is the second straight year that Sheetz is offering a discount on unleaded gas during the holiday season. Meanwhile, gas prices are relatively low in the U.S., hovering just over $3 nationally.
At the same time last year, the average price for a gallon of unleaded 88 was $3.37.
