Quick Chek Stimulates Sub Sales

Also donates nearly $2,000 to fire department to commemorate store opening
WHITEHOUSE STATION, N.J. -- Quick Chek, a chain of nearly 120 fresh food convenience stores throughout New Jersey and southern New York, said that more than 21,000 customers enjoyed a six-inch sub for lunch during Quick Chek's Sub Stimulus Day celebration on May 7, with more than 10,300 individuals enjoying their lunch "on the house."

Customers purchasing any size Quick Chek coffee between 5:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. on May 7 automatically received a "Sub Stimulus Plan" stamp on their hand at checkout. When they returned to their Quick Chek store between 11:00 a.m. and 2:00 [image-nocss] p.m. that same day, each individual was able to choose one of five most popular Quick Chek sub varieties for lunch free of charge.

"At Quick Chek we pride ourselves on being involved members of the communities we serve," said John Schaninger, vice president of sales and merchandising of Quick Chek. "During these tough economic times, our customers need and deserve a break, and we are delighted to have offered them a free lunch to offer some relief."
