Sheetz, Pa. Lottery launch ‘Free Gas for a Year’ contest

OK, no one won last night’s Mega Million drawing. There’s another way to test your luck — especially if you’re feeling financial pain at the gas pump.

Sheetz and the Pennsylvania Lottery have teamed up to offer a unique opportunity to give one lucky customer free gas for a year.

All 299 Sheetz locations in Pennsylvania are participating in the “Free Gas for a Year” contest, which runs until Sept. 30, according to a press release from the convenience store franchise. The winner will get a $5,000 Sheetz gift card (which, ostensibly, would be spent on gas).

To enter, buy at least one $10 Match 6 lottery ticket. Once purchased, each customer will receive a play ticket, as well as a trailing ticket that will include a QR code. Customers will then have to scan the QR code on their phone, which will take them to the MySheetz app. Next, enter the promo code on their trailing ticket to automatically be entered to win the grand prize.

You can only enter the drawing once.

While there can only be one winner for grand prize, though, every participant will have a free coffee or soda item loaded onto their MySheetz account.

The grand prize winner will be announced in October.
