Skip the line.
Split the order.
Match with people at the city's most viral food spots — share the cost, share the order, pay someone already in line to order for you, or pay someone to wait in line for you.
No two-hour waits. No $100 minimums. No whole pies you didn't need.
Getting a whole pie at 6pm — anyone want half? Spicy Vodka pie energy only.
In line now, ~20 people ahead of me. Happy to grab cookies for 1–2 people.
Will hold a spot in line Saturday morning. I bring a book, you bring Venmo.
