CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va.—Today, convenience stores across the country are giving back to the men and women who serve—or have served—in the U.S. military.

“Tiger Fuel honors the commitment of those who protect our nation, and we’d like to express our gratitude for these individuals on Veterans Day,” said Gordon Sutton, president of Tiger Fuel, in a press release. “We’re proud to employ a number of veterans across our business, including our car wash operations manager who served in the U.S. Army. This is just a small token of appreciation that we can extend to our friends who are also heroes.”

Tiger Fuel is offering a free car wash and lunch to veterans and active-duty military in honor of Veterans Day. The free lunch includes a signature sandwich, fried chicken or hot dog. A representative of Tiger Fuel will be stationed at each TigerWash location to thank guests for their service and distribute goodie bags with a complimentary Black Rifle nitro coffee, a free car wash coupon for a future visit and car care accessories.

Sheetz will show its respect and gratitude for veterans and active-duty military personnel on Veterans Day by offering all veterans and active-duty military members a free meal and car wash throughout the day.

Wawa honors troops and their families with free any-size coffee. “At Wawa supporting our military is part of our DNA and each year; Veterans Day gives us a chance to thank our troops, and, in our own small way, give something back to these brave and dedicated men and women,” said Chris Gheysens, Wawa’s president and CEO, in a press release. “Once again, we plan to honor our military and their families with free coffee on Veterans Day, and also through a socially-distanced care package assembly at our Wawa headquarters the Tuesday before Veterans Day. In its 10th year, we’ve been providing troops abroad with a taste of home through our coffee care packages, and we are passionate about continuing this tradition for years to come.”
