Last week we mentioned that &pizza was being pretty awesome during the shutdown, offering a free pie to Feds from 11-2pm. UPDATE:
“To DC + its extended community, Embarking on this commitment to support furloughed govt employees has been encouraging + humbling. Please note that beginning tomorrow, we’re shifting the offer redemption window to 6-8p daily for govt employees with a valid govt issued ID.
The hours are changing, but our support isn’t. Sincerely, Your friends at &pizza.”
