Celebrate Pi Day with free food and other awesome discounts
Pies, pizza and more are all on special this Thursday!
Happy Pi Day! While math nerds may have March 14 — 3/14 — circled on their calendars for the annual celebration of that quantity with an infinite number of decimal digits, it's also a day of food-related deals that everyone can enjoy.
Recently, Pi Day has become a fun way for companies to promote deep discounts on pies and pizzas. Pi is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, but on March 14, the mathematical symbol is more of a sign for savings.
