Restaurant brands roll out 4/20 promotions

With more states legalizing retail sales of marijuana, 420 Day restaurant promotions aren’t as edgy as they once were. But they continue to smolder.

The term 420, of course, is cannabis culture slang for consumption — especially smoking — around the 4:20 pm. Cannabis-oriented celebrations take place each year on April 20.

We’ve weeded out some of the more interesting promotions this year.

Jimmy John’s

Jimmy John’s, the division of Inspire Brands LLC, is celebrating “the highest of unofficial holidays” with the Deliciously Dope Dime Bag, a $10 meal designed to quell the munchies and online available for online orders.

Jimmy John’s Deliciously Dope Dime Bag includes a ham and provolone sandwich topped with Jalapeño Ranch, XTRA Oregano-Basil, sliced pickles crispy jalapeños and f lettuce and tomato, alongside a spear of a fan-favorite Jimmy John’s pickle, a delectable Fudge Chocolate brownie, and a satisfying serving of Jimmy Chips.

The Deliciously Dope Dime Bag will be available for online order only at participating restaurants nationwide for $10 with the use of the promo code DIMEBAG. Some customers will be surprised with additional merchandise, “including a Jimmy John’s branded rolling tray (for catching crumbs from the chips, of course).”

&pizza

The Washington, D.C. based &pizza concept announced a week’s worth of deals and discounts.
