Cici's Pizza in Cicero has great customer service!

I just wanted to do a "shout out" for customer service at the Cici's Pizza Buffet in Cicero.

My family and I went there Thursday evening and really enjoyed ourselves.  Besides the food being really good and them making whatever type of pizza you ask for, we ended up meeting the manager and he was one of the nicest people you could ever meet.  His name is Louie and he made sure our visit had everything we needed.  He had them make a special plate of maccaroni and cheese for my kids which they enjoyed very much. 

Louie also told us that Cici's does a lot of fundraising night for clubs, businesses, etc. 

And here is another great thing that was shared with us. 

Monday nights at 4pm they do kids night where kids are $1.99 for the buffet, but that's not all....they also have balloons, face painting, and other fun things for they kids to come and enjoy.

So, if you are looking for good food, a good time, and great customer service then check out Cici's Pizza in Cicero and say "hi" to Louie and tell him that the Cicero Coupons Moms blogged about his welcoming business and said to stop by.

Way to go Louie!  Thanks again for making us feel so welcome!!!

Couponing Myths and Facts

Extreme Couponing Myths & Facts

Myth: I can use multiple coupons for the same item.
Fact: You are allowed to use 1 manufacturer coupon per item. Some stores will allow you to use 1 manufacturer coupon and 1 store coupon per item and possibly 1 competitor. CHECK with your local store about their policy!

Myth: I can use all the coupons I want.
Fact: Some stores have limits. For example, at Walmart you are only allowed to use 40 coupons per transaction/shopping trip. Again check your local store for its policy!

Myth: I can use as many identical coupons as I want.
Fact: So you have a stack of coupons all for the same product, for the same amount off, they’re all the same coupon offer. Be aware that some stores limit how many “like” or “identical” coupons they will accept in one transaction. Also, some coupons now have limits written in their fine print, for example, P&G coupons now say, “Limit of 4 like coupons in same shopping trip.”

Myth: I can print as many coupons as I want.
Fact: When you print internet printable coupons you have to download a little piece of software often called a “Coupon Printer” before you can get the coupon. This software tracks your printing (just your coupon printing, nothing else). Coupons are limited to 2 per computer.
Also, you can NOT make copies of internet printable coupons. Each one has a unique code. If you try to make copies of your coupons you are committing serious coupon fraud and could face legal punishment. Just don’t do it.

Myth: I can use my coupon on anything made by the brand listed.
Fact: Read the wording. If it says the coupon is for ANY product of that brand, then yes, you can use it that way. If it says a particular type or size then you can only use the coupon on those listed items. If it mentions items excluded, then you cannot use it on any of those items.

Myth: All stores work the same.
Fact: ALWAYS learn each store’s coupon policy before beginning to shop with coupons. They do vary and you must stick to the rules if you want to save money with coupons. Check your local store for its policy.

Exteme Couponing...Good for Everyone?

Here we go again. The TLC show Extreme Couponing returns to TV Wedesday September 28th. While we certainly love shopping with coupons, there’s no doubt this show has caused unrealistic expectations, especially among new couponers. I certainly have mixed feelings about this show returning, as I truly believe that this show played a huge part in why a lot of stores changed their coupon policies. While I was not breaking and or bending any coupon rules and or policies, others did and thought they could get away with it. Extreme Couponing is not realistic for eveyone, and especially people just starting out!

Let’s Get Real
Couponing WILL save you money. In fact it can save you a lot of money, But Extreme Couponing is not the best way to do it for everyone. Truth be told as well, I like to say I am an extreme couponer, but I do not clearn shelves, I leave stuff for others. Also I do not buy things that I am never goin to use just because I have a coupon. It disgusts me that others do. Unless you are only buying it to donate, do not waste your time.

Start Small, Then Keep It Real
If you’re new to couponing, start small with just a few coupons and a few deals so you’re certain to get them right. Then once you get the hang of it try getting bigger deals!

Don’t Expect Couponing to Always Mean Free Stuff
Yes, we all like free deals, but you can’t live off of them. All couponers DO pay money for groceries, the TLC show Extreme Couponing just likes to focus on the freebie deals. You can’t expect using coupons to always mean you’ll get things for free. Saving 25% or 50% off is plenty of success especially when you are just starting out!

What You Don’t See on TV
Keep in mind they only show on TV these shopper’s most extreme shopping trips, you don’t see that next week they’re back at the store buying milk, eggs, bread, meat, and produce and spending *gasp* almost full price! Now that is NOT to say you can't save money on milk, produce and meat. If you shop the right way you can save on everything. Check out the reduced meat, bakery, dairy and produce sections. There are always going to be times when they are reduced and you can either use them right away or freeze!

Extreme Couponing is Extreme Work
The people you see on Extreme Couponing spend 30 to 60 hours per week on couponing. I also spend a minimum 2-3 hours a day working on coupons in some form, not including the blog. Couponing is similar to a full time job. It is not to be taken lightly. It is possible for any household, and I am not trying to discourage anyone I am just trying to be honest that it does take work.

The Point of Couponing – To Cut You Grocery Bill
The truth is anyone can use coupons to reduce their grocery bill. You don’t have to be extreme to save money. So be smart, shop with coupons and seek out the best deals, but keep it real by expecting to save some money, rather than expecting to never pay for groceries again.
I am a huge believer that anyone can save money and no one should pay more than they have to. So use coupons when you can on whatever you can! If you ever have any questions please email and we can help!
