The “meal and shopping discount coupons (200 yen)” that the Palaceside Building Meitinkai merchants’ association has been distributing since the end of last year, and that have been popular with customers, expire tomorrow, the 14th. Because the rapid spread of COVID-19 has forced many people into remote work and left them unable to use the coupons, some shops will extend the deadline. Please check with the shop you plan to visit for details.

The coupons, good for lunch, dinner, or shopping, are part of a “new lifestyle” subsidy campaign run by the Chiyoda Ward Shopping Street Federation and the Chiyoda Ward Shopping Street Promotion Association Federation as a COVID-19 measure. This is the second distribution by the building’s Meitinkai, following one a year ago.

Even if the deadline is extended, the explosive spread of infection may yet restrict shop operations themselves. Please use the coupons as soon as you can.
