First responders have a special deal waiting for them at their local Firehouse Subs this week.
In honor of National First Responders Day on October 28, Firehouse Subs will be offering a buy-one-get-one deal to first responders all week long.
"Founded by two firefighting brothers nearly three decades ago, Firehouse Subs is recognizing the commitment and sacrifices first responders make daily with a special offer in honor of National First Responders Day on Oct. 28," the company said.
Starting on Monday until Sunday, October 29, first responders in uniform who show their valid ID will get a free medium sub with the purchase of an additional medium sub. Keep in mind that the deal is only available in stores.
Firehouse Subs has also launched a new sandwich in support of Hawaii first responders and wildfire victims.
A portion of every purchase of the limited-time King's Hawaiian Pork & Slaw sandwich will go toward the Hawaii Disaster Relief Fund. This goes to support recovery programs across Lahaina and Maui, which suffered from killing at least 99 people.
Each sandwich has slow-smoked pulled pork, melted pepper jack cheese, and a tangy coleslaw between a King's Hawaiian Bun.
All throughout the month, Firehouse Subs is also letting customers purchase medallions for $1 of $5 in support of the Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation, which has provided $79 million to first responders across the country.
At the end of the month, Firehouse Subs rewards members can score triple points on their purchases from Monday, October 30 through Tuesday, October 31.
Earlier this year, Firehouse Subs made headlines when it reintroduced its Pepperoni Pizza Meatball Sub. For $6, customers get a twist on three classic Italian dishes: meatball sub, pepperoni pizza and garlic bread.
Every sub comes with Italian meatballs, marinara, extra provolone, pepperoni, and Italian seasoning on toasted garlic bread.
Firehouse Subs also unveiled a meat lover's paradise in its Smokin' Triple Stack Sub earlier this year.
The sandwich is packed with slow-smoked beef brisket, smoked turkey breast and Virginia honey ham before being topped with melted cheddar, slaw, barbecue sauce and mayo on a toasted roll.

The specialty pie features a thin crust with Papa John's signature sauce with vine-ripened tomatoes, real cheese, a pepperoni border and pepperoni smiley face with triangle-shaped eye sockets and black olives.
