Want free pizza for life? A Charlotte restaurant is about to make one customer very happy.
Update: A winner was announced!
Is there anything better than a Neapolitan-style wood-fired oven pizza on a cool October evening? How about a free Neapolitan-style wood-fired oven pizza every month for the rest of your life?
If you buy a pizza in Charlotte this week, there’s a chance that you might find out.
800° Woodfired Kitchen in Phillips Place near SouthPark is celebrating National Pizza Month by giving the guest who purchases its 40,000th pizza a free pizza every month for life.
Based on previous sales, a representative of the restaurant told CharlotteFive they anticipate the pizza will be sold on Thursday, Oct. 13.
“It’s hard to believe we’ve sold almost 40,000 pizzas in such a short period of time,” co-owner Steven Jensen said in a statement. “During National Pizza Month, we want to share our successes with the community that continues to support us.”
The rules
Here’s the fine print*:
The guest that purchases the 40,000th pizza will receive a special gift card good for one pizza per month at the 800° Woodfired Kitchen’s Charlotte location in Phillips Place.
This offer is available only for the winning guest for the remainder of their life — or as long as this specific location remains open for business.
No substitutions allowed.
Dine in only.
The offer cannot be redeemed for cash.
