“10 years fly by when you’re having fun! It feels like yesterday my brother Bill and I opened this location,” said Gail Gentry, franchise co-owner of the Checkers in Buffalo, N.Y. “We’re giving away our wings for only 10 cents to represent the 10 lovely years in Buffalo. We want to give back to this amazing community because they have always been so good to us. Although this is a national brand, as an independent franchise local to this city, this family business is my everything, and I’ve put a lot of love into these stores. 

The franchisee will also be celebrating their anniversary the following week from August 17-30 with deals all week long, including:  

  • From 10 p.m. – 11 p.m.: Checker’s Classic Wings for just 10 cents each (5 piece or 10 piece only, max 10 wings per order).
