COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) — Sheetz is observing Independence Day by offering a special one-day-only gas price and central Ohioans are taking advantage during their day off.
For July 4, the convenience store/gas station chain dropped prices to $1.776 per gallon, and unlike previous fuel specials held by the stores, this one will include more than just Unleaded 88 gas.
Tuesday’s promotion will include regular, mid-grade, and premium fuels as well as E0 ethanol-free gasoline, E85 flex fuel and Unleaded 88. Only diesel fuel will not be included in the promotion.
The promotion began at 12:01 a.m. and will run all day or until the promotional gallons run out.
Long lines were seen by the NBC4 team at Sheetz gas stations across central Ohio, including in Grandview Heights and New Albany. Additionally, the Sheetz on Bethel Road has caused traffic with cars lining up to fill up their gas tanks.
