I worked in a grocery store that had a little pizza making section. End of the day they'd throw out a lot of pizza. Management absolutely did not want employees to grab some at the end of the day.
Well, I was friends with the guy who worked there so he'd "throw it out" into my possession. I had a lot of free pizza back then.
Nowadays there's an app "too good to go" where you can get cheap food at the end of the day from places. Not as good as free, but like four slices of pizza for $5 isn't bad.
is that app your chain specific or location because i love the idea
So far as I know it's available in a bunch of regions: https://www.toogoodtogo.com/en-us
