If you have the patience to stand in line and a serious thing for Frostys, the newly remodeled Wendy’s in Fishers is dangling a pretty tempting carrot: the first 100 people in line at this weekend’s grand re-opening will score VIP cards good for one free sandwich, salad or breakfast item each week for a year. The party is set for this Saturday, May 9, with the dining room opening at 10:30 a.m., and you can safely assume there will be an early crowd and some unwritten line etiquette in play.
To get in on the deal, you have to be among the first 100 customers, make a purchase and be at least 16 years old. Those are the rules tied to the promo that is rolling out alongside the remodel, which the franchisee says will create about 45 local jobs, as reported by FOX59. “We’re excited to welcome guests back to the newly remodeled Wendy’s in Fishers,” Jerrod Mitchell said in the announcement.
Flynn Group Operates The Fishers Location
Flynn Group, the franchise operator behind the Fishers restaurant, has been steadily growing its Wendy’s footprint across multiple states. The company has added multiple Wendy’s units in the Midwest in recent years, according to industry reporting from QSR Magazine.
How The Free-Food Cards Work
The grand prize here is a VIP card that can be redeemed for one sandwich, salad or breakfast item per week for one year. There is a catch: the cards are only valid at Flynn Group-owned Wendy’s locations in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, West Virginia, Maryland, Virginia and Utah, per FOX59. The giveaway is limited to in-person purchases, and winners have to be on site to claim their cards, so no sending a friend to camp out for you.
When And Where To Line Up
The Fishers Wendy’s at 13708 Olivia Way will swing open its dining room doors at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday. The store’s hours and contact information are listed on Wendy’s official locations page. If you are planning to take your shot at the VIP card, bring ID if you are 16 or older, be ready to make a purchase and plan for some wait time once the line starts snaking through the parking lot.
Giveaways like this are not exactly rare in Wendy’s world. The chain and its franchisees have rolled out similar “free for a year” promotions at remodeled or new stores in other markets, according to coverage by Food Network. For Fishers residents, this reopening is a chance to check out the refreshed dining room and maybe walk away with what amounts to a very committed coupon habit.
