“My co-workers have teased me about it, but I’ve been eating at Subway nearly every day,” Jennings said.

Jennings was dining with her family on the day she won. Her son pulled the game tab off his brother’s drink, revealing a $10,000 Exchange shopping spree.

“I had to go online to make sure it was legit,” Jennings said. “It’s been very cool to win something this big.”

The sweepstakes is part of the Exchange’s 125th anniversary celebration.

“Exchange sweepstakes have always been a critical component in strengthening the bond with our community,” said Wiesbaden Exchange General Manager Brian Smith. “It really emphasizes our commitment to you to save money and show we give back.”

Smith recently presented the Jennings family with a $10,000 mock check, officially confirming the prize.

“This blew us away,” Jennings said. “I am really grateful to the Exchange and Subway. They’ve been awesome supporting the community during this pandemic.”

Smith said he feels fortunate to be a part of such a wonderful event.

“Congratulations to the Jennings family,” Smith said. “The Exchange is honored to serve and celebrate with you.”
