Everyone these days are feeling the effects of inflation.  At the grocery, each bag you leave with seems to cost $100.00.  Young individuals need to spend $2000.00/ month to get an apartment. Home purchase is out of reach for most of them.  Cars cost a fortune to buy, and an arm and a leg to fuel and maintain.  Inflation seems to touch every part of our lives.

In order to survive and flourish in today’s society, people need to be frugal and seek value in their purchases.  Just looking for the cheapest option is not always the smartest path to seek.  One must determine the best way to make their dollars stretch when trying to set a budget to make their way through the financial minefields today.

Let us take a lesson from the 1700’s when Ben Franklin said and was recognized for his wisdom. Ben said “The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of a low price is forgotten.”

Since the founding of Pepperoni’s in 1997, the principle of “Quality Meals” has been in our logo and our practices.  It has always been our mission to provide VALUE in our food for our customers.  We are not the cheapest option when purchasing pizza in the marketplace.  But when you look at what your dollars buy when purchasing our pizza, the value is evident.

We start by offering a “Quality” product.  We use Wisconsin cheeses, premium toppings, and generous portions on our pizza pies.  If you purchase a pizza with skimpy portions of lesser quality cheese and toppings, where is the value for your family?  One of the greatest compliments I ever received was from an angry guest who was picking up pizzas for her family.  She said she had purchased pizzas from one of the chain outfits, but when she got it home, her kids refused to eat it.  She said her children refused to eat pizza from anyone else other than Pepperoni’s!

When it costs $50.00 to go through the drive-thru at the fast-food operators, is it a value to go there, or to purchase a quality and healthy pizza that feeds all 4 people for between $19-$35 from Pepperoni’s.  The real test is to see how your family loves their meal and the joy that a “quality meal” brings to your family.

Next time when you are trying to figure out what to feed your tribe, make the choice for the high quality alternative.  The value helps your budget, and the reactions of your family will reward you for your wise choice to provide a healthy, delicious meal.
