Rewards members can play the Wok Wednesday game each week in the Panda Express app to unlock deals, free items, and bonus points
Panda Express is offering its rewards members a chance to win free food and discounts each week through a recurring in-app promotion called Wok Wednesday.
Every Wednesday, members of the chain's rewards program can play the Wok Wednesday game in the Panda Express app, according to Allrecipes. Once the game is complete, members can find their offer in the app, which may come with extra Panda Points or additional discounts. Membership in the rewards program carries no cost.
Deals that players have unlocked vary, according to Allrecipes, citing reports from members on the Panda Express subreddit. Reported prizes have ranged from a two-plate deal at $14 — with each plate covering one side and two entrées that ordinarily cost $10.80 — to a $7 plate or a $12 bundle pairing a plate with a small appetizer and a small or medium drink. On the free-item side, reported wins have included a BOGO plate offer, a pair of complimentary drinks tied to a $25 minimum order, and three small appetizers at no charge for those spending $35 or more.
