Priced to move

Greetings to those with taste.

This week it seems that restaurants are trying to maximize there customers. You may know what I am talking about. IHOP and Denny's have had cheap specials in the past hoping to draw people in. Most people will buy something else instead of the special.

The other day Jimmy Johns was having a dollar sub. The sub was pretty big. So looking for a deal Wendy and I went. We found a crowd. The line did move fast and we got out food. We both got sandwiches. Wendy bought a drink and I bought chips. We both paid two dollars. I am thinking that with the line out the door for most of the afternoon they made money or at least broke even. If you have ten people buying one dollar subs compared to one person buying a five dollar sub.

Cici's pizza is dropping their buffet price for a few days. It is back to the price when they first opened. So last night Wendy and I went for dinner. The crowd was not too bad. When we first got to the restaurant, there was not much pizza on the buffet. It had pretty much been wiped clean. I was thinking if you are going to have a promotion of a cheap buffet at least keep it filled so people do not have to wait in line. Fortunately, they did a better job later that night. It must have also been two for the price of one night because we saw about eight pregnant women there.

Rita's Italian Ice is doing a promotion also. We will be there today. I will let you know how it goes.

It is good to get more food for less.
