Legend has it, if Punxsutawney Phil emerges from his burrow on Groundhog’s Day and sees his shadow, he will retreat to his den for six more weeks of winter; but if he does not see his shadow, spring is on its way.
This Groundhog Day, Potbelly Sandwich Shop — home of toasted sandwiches and classic (however you pronounce ‘giardiniera’) hot peppers — is putting all its faith into our furry little meteorologist. Potbelly is letting Phil decide how they dole out triple points to Potbelly Perks members on Groundhog Day, Feb. 2, 2021.
If he predicts six more weeks of winter, Perks members get triple points on soup, chili, and Mac & cheese purchases to help get cozy in our dens for a little more winter.
If Phil predicts upcoming spring warmth, Perks members get triple points on shakes, because tiny animals know what’s best for you and hey at least this thing is lighter than whatever other terrifying news you could be reading about, right?
How it works:
Join Potbelly Perks (https://www.potbelly.com/perks) and start earning points towards free food. Already a member? “Great!” says Phil.
Patiently await Punxsutawney Phil’s judgment on Groundhog Day, Tues 2/2.
(A) If Phil predicts six more weeks of winter, earn triple points on soup, chili, and mac purchases 2/2-3. (B) If Phil predicts an early spring, earn triple points on shake purchases 2/2-3.
Watch those points come in three times as fast towards a free sandwich.
Thank Phil for his service.
