Here is a $3 off coupon. It probably won't work during their grand opening specials but still......

I had it last night (and today) and personally found it better tasting than when I was in Monterey. The toppings were super fresh and it didn't have that nasty grease like you normally find on domino's and pizza hut. I bought the Chicago style and the $5.99 special with an extra topping for $1 more. Chicago one was definitely the best and my wife, who's a big thin crust fan, even liked the crust. Best part is it's the meal that keeps going and going and going..

It was pretty fun watching the people make it too because they were reading the recipe cards and making perfect measurements. Much better than the slop it all together in 2.5 seconds you normally get.. There was also a bunch of corporate types in there doing the greeting thing and asking for opinions. That was a nice touch and hopefully they prosper. They'll definitely be getting more business from me, but I need to stay out of Don and Ben's next door.. every time I go in there I find another bottle I want to add to my collection.. yesterday cost me over $40 for a 1 liter bottle of Bong Vodka, which is by far the best looking bottle I've ever seen in my life..

You have to go to the Costo Liquor store!!! They have some awesomely unique bottles of Vodka, Tequila and other tasty concoctions (is that how you spell it?). I just bought a bottle of 1.75 litter Vodka there for about $35.

yes, I hear about Costco every day at work, seems I'm the only one that doesn't have a membership
I heard they also do taste testings for liquor on the weekends. I like tequila and vodka, but will buy any bottle that's really unique looking. My next bottle is going to be Porfidio tequila and that blue cactus is hand blown inside the bottle. D & B's has it for $64 which is a pretty good price compared with everything I've seen online. I think I got a really good deal on my Bong Vodka bottle too because it was the only limited edition one they had and they sold it for the same price as a normal bottle. They have artists paintings on the backs of certain bottles and sell them as limited editions. Every bottle of it is also numbered.

seriously? that's the first I've heard of that one.. do they still sell at the same price as they do for members? or do you pay a premium? I've heard the prices are good, but can't really see a use for the membership as I'm not the type of person that shops bulk style..
maybe I'll check them out this weekend, although my things to do list is getting pretty large

it's a Texas state liquor law, something about requiring a membership to buy bottles of liquor, so anyone can shop at a sam's or costco's liquor section.

I recently tried Papa Murphy's but can't say I was impressed. It was a average pizza nothing special, pretty bland and considering the price I don't know how its going to compete.
