The block market dropped BIG yesterday. Hoping today brings more of the same. If it goes back to $1.20 I might even become an Obama fan.

This thread should be carefully analyzed by the mods on this site. You have a less than ethical “business person” who has ripped off several members of this site. When other members commented negatively about this vendor(myself included), we were censored. This forum can be a great tool to talk...

We have been using these mixers for 15 years. You will love it. We make 160 lbs. of dough at a time. We can knock out 960 pounds of dough in 1.5 hours. You can also use a singe bag of flour(50 lbs.) just as easily.

Karma at it’s finest. Prison…The screwing you get for the screwing you did to others.

I think the biggest problem you are having is your flyer needs to SCREAM “we deliver” or “fast delivery”. Your customer’s perception of you is the pizza place in the mall. You need to break that perception by emphasizing “we deliver” on every ad that you do.

77-78 degrees for me. Electric bill is too high as it is. I hate to eat at places that are freezing. If I need to bring a sweatshirt to eat in August I’ll pass.

That could be a “smoking” deal… If it was being auctioned off by a different auctioneer.

I had advised a friend to use RBS when he opened his shop nearly 3 years ago. They had been doing a decent job for some other stores in our chain and they gave him a fair cost plus contract. Of course, at the end of the first year, they jacked his rate without notifying him. Well he didn’t...

In todays world, I think customers prefer a sealed/resealable 2 liter bottle to a carton you fill at the shop. It also seems that the coke syrup prices have continued rising, possibly negating any cost savings. Your time may be better spent pressuring Coke and Pepsi to bid your account and to...

Looks like another great install from MF&b! That is a triple stack of money making machines. We have had ours for over 3 years now. We are coming up on 400,000 “almost perfect” pizzas with no problems at all.

How are your new ovens working for you? Can you recommend the vendor for us to use for our new store? Thanks in advance.

Congratulations on the score. That is a great price on the best 60 quart mixer out there.

July 4th is one of our top 5 busiest fays of the year. Okay for lunch, busy for dinner, slow for the fireworks, and extremely busy late night after the fireworks. It is usually one of the busiest weeks of the year.

We sell a 24" pizza and our customers love it. They only account for approx 5% of our sales, but it gets people talking about us. Our drivers do have to be careful with them, but we have not had many problems with toppings sliding. Go big, you won’t regret it!

Properly set up, middleby marshall, lincoln, xlt, and edge ovens all bake great pizzas. You just have to experiment with temp. and bake times to figure out the best way to cook your produce. If you are buying new you get much more bang for your buck with edge or xlt ovens. Both companies also...

We have been using rubbermaid/pelouze scales for a few years now. http://www.webstaurantstore.com/rubberm … 2SRWQ.html I think the most important features are a large platform and a quick stop/dashpot or anti boinging device as I call it. We are hard on them and we still get 1-2 years out of...

wa dave: Thats okay, we get green with envy when we see how much you guys can charge for pizzas!

You may be under estimating the amount of cheese and the amount of dough. If you use 5.3 ounces of cheese on a pizza you will need 1000-1666 lbs of cheese. if you dough balls are 12 ounces, you will use approx 30-50 bags of flour. (50 lb) Cost of cheese $$$ cost of dough $$$ cost of sauce $$$...

We use Prism and can use any processer we want. They did however charge us a fee ($200?) for programming when we switched processers. Maybe you could get Mercury to match heartlands rate if you threaten to switch?

That seems a little high but it depends alot on your average ticket. Our average ticket is $22 and we paid $1753 on $71828. last month. Approx. 2.44%, through Heartland. Heartland received $237. of the fees the best I can tell and the rest were pass-thru interchange fees. 95% of our transactions...
