I was talking specifically about a rebate check from Pepsi. It will be nice to get the economic stimulus rebate check too of course!!!

What: Just wondering…has anyone gotten their rebate check yet this year? The past couple of years we have received ours by now (usually in early March). So I was just checking with the rest of you who receive rebate checks. Thanks! Sara

Just wondering…where did you get your tablecloths? I have been wanting to get some, but I’m not sure where to get the best tablecloths for the best price. Thanks! Sara

I like the marble idea except that whenever I’m not there, or when no one is looking, I could see them moving marbles around from jar to jar, adding to their own jar, taking them out and throwing them around to be funny (not funny to me of course!) Maybe the same idea would work, but in a way...

Kris: Our employees aren’t allowed to leave until all of their work is done either, but the problem I have sometimes is them doing their work without any regard to how it is affecting the rest of the staff trying to get their own work done. For example, last night I nearly slipped and fell...

Interesting articles. I also read the side article about the myths of restaurant failures. It mentioned juggling the business and a family. That is my biggest issue. How do you all (who have kids) achieve a good work/life balance? I could use some advice… Thanks! Sara

td_VP192: You weren’t the only one!! I kept checking hoping that it would maybe be back earlier than they were saying. It was painful to be without it…kinda like not having your phone for a couple of days and not being able to call anyone or receive any phone calls! Glad it’s back!!!

Same here. We first tried the 12:00 - 9:00 hours but changed them to 3:00 - 9:00 after a while. We figured out that the Sunday church crowd is looking for a Bob Evans or Cracker Barrel style “breakfast for lunch” meal. The idea of pizza right after church did not appeal to enough people...

Re: Night # one of our biggest week Wow…how big of a place do you have to store enough inventory to do those kind of sales in one week? Do you get a food delivery every day? I, like TangoPizza, would love to hear the details of how your operation is run. I wish you continued success! Sara

Nick, Our thoughts are with you too. This past Friday (December 21) was the two year anniversary of the passing of my husband’s mom, and although it was hard to go through at Christmas time, it made our time together as a family more special. Plus we knew she was having the best Christmas–free...

TangoPizza: I’ve been trying to think of some way to reward good employees and have thought about employee of the month, but I have the feeling my employees would laugh at it too. I have the fear that they would think, “Well, I know I won’t be the employee of the month this month because John...

td_VP192: Wow, that was an image I thought I would never have in my head!!! :shock: On the other hand, if Nick still needs a photo for his Christmas card…

GT, Got your e-mail with the photos of your menu boards. They look great! I don’t need menu boards, but I’ve always wanted to put some pictures of our food around the restaurant but haven’t gotten around to it. Now I am inspired! Thanks! SaraH

Me too please! [email protected] Thanks!

We got a letter from Pepsi the other day when our delivery was brought saying that starting in January the BIB prices will be going up (along with other items too). Anyone else get this letter? That was all I needed to hear…more price increases by a vendor. I’m thinking I need to raise my...
