Weis Gas Rewards in Southern Tier

 

Former Giant store in Binghamton (AI edit)

    With the loss of Price Chopper and Market 32's FuelAdvantage after nearly two decades, Sunoco stations in the Southern Tier and Northeast Pennsylvania will have less business unless they are willing to switch to a competitors own version, and one that is more dominant in the area anyway. Weis Markets have had a monopoly in Broome County alone since buying Giant Markets from the Axel family in 2009. So now it only makes sense if these franchises are willing to participate in Weis Gas Rewards. Even when I last went to the area over the festive period, I saw that two stations had one or the other and were just several miles apart, but never thought that the one that I know could be gone months later. The Elmira store further into Twin Tiers was opened before the Giant deal and is the only one in the state today not part of that group or to have its own Gas 'n Go station. If Weis bought the former P&C/Tops/Grand Union in Owego, then the Sunoco at Onvo in Nichols would likely join the programme. In Weis's home state, it's more sporadic until you get further towards Susquehanna Valley where the chain are based. Price Chopper have stores all the way to Lackawanna and Wyoming Valleys and the Poconos, even though one in the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre suburb of Taylor had closed recently.
    Here are where Sunoco should accept Weis Gas Rewards (if an area Sunoco isn't listed, they have it already or it's not right near Binghamton):

Binghamton (east side) - NY 7

Binghamton (near downtown) - NY 17C

Endwell/Endicott - 3225 E Main St

Friendsville, PA - PA 267 (although Weis aren't in the county)

Nichols - CR 509 (only if Weis open in Owego)
