travel centers

WESTLAKE, OH--March 23, 2012: TravelCenters of America LLC (TravelCenters) has announced two major savings programs for professional drivers available at TA and Petro Stopping Centers branded travel stores. Professional drivers who are members of the UltraONE Driver Rewards program will receive special Member Pricing discounts on many travel store items at all participating TA and Petro locations beginning March 24, 2012. Additionally, TA and Petro customers can soon save on bulk-package purchases with the new "Buy Big & Save" program, expected to be rolled out at select locations in May 2012.

With UltraONE Member Pricing, professional drivers who present their UltraONE rewards card at the time of purchase can save up to an additional 40% on as many as 100 popular items each month. These discounts are not available to customers who are not UltraONE members.

The "Buy Big & Save" program is expected to begin at TA Corning, CA; Petro Ocala, FL; Petro Mebane, NC; and Petro Kingdom City, MO. Buy Big & Save locations will have "store within a store" retail space for supplies and other bulk packaged products.

Tom O'Brien, President and CEO of TravelCenters, said:

"These two new programs enable professional drivers to achieve significant savings on the things they need the most. Buy Big & Save is yet another expansion of services at TA and Petro that enables professional drivers to do more in one stop, at a travel center large enough to accommodate all the services that drivers need. Our Member Pricing program delivers special discounts directly, and only, to professional drivers -- not only will it result in savings, it is one more way of telling professional drivers that they are indeed our best customers."

TravelCenters announced the two new store savings programs at the Mid-America Trucking Show in Louisville, Kentucky. Representatives will be on hand at the TA/Petro booth #19156 to share more about the programs.
