On Sunday, all Pittsburgh-area Giant Eagle and Market District locations will offer a 15% discount off their grocery purchases in the aftermath of this week’s severe storm that left thousands without power.
The one-day discount is meant to help those who have to dispose of the contents of their refrigerators, freezers and pantries due to power outages.
“We know that Pittsburgh is counting on us to help families restock their refrigerators and pantries, particularly when so many face the reality of unplanned — and unbudgeted — additional grocery store trips in light of widespread power outages,” said Bill Artman, CEO of Giant Eagle.
All locations in Allegheny, Beaver, Butler, Washington, Westmoreland, Greene and Indiana counties are participating in the promotion.
When shopping, customers will either receive a 15% off coupon upon entering the store or at the checkout on Sunday. The 15% discount will apply to curbside grocery orders and home deliveries.
Items excluded from the discount include milk, alcohol, fuel, tobacco, cigarettes, gifts cards, prescriptions and any other items prohibited by law, as well as all third-party transactions like DoorDash, Uber Eats and Instacart.
Eat’n Park
Also in the Pittsburgh area, all Eat’n Park restaurants are offering utility workers free coffee from Thursday through Sunday. No purchase is required, and the coffee can be for either dine in or takeout.
Eat’n Park said the offer is a “gesture of goodwill for the utility crews who worked and continue to work around the clock to restore power in so many communities.”
