*Expired* Papa Murphy’s Pizza: Customer Appreciation Days

From Thursday, September 13 through Sunday, September 16, participating Papa Murphy’s Pizza locations celebrate Customer Appreciation Days.

During this promotion, Papa Murphy’s pepperoni pizzas are $5. Yeah!

Papa Murphy’s Pizza is hands down our family’s favorite pizza supplier. I use the word supplier because Papa Murphy’s is a take and bake establishment.

Take and bake means, you order your pizza, and they create and wrap it. You make payment, take it home, and bake it.

Their pizzas are fantastic. Our favorite is the Chicago-style stuffed pizza which feeds our family of 5 and my husband’s parents. Yes, one pizza for 4 adults and 3 children.

The cost is worth every penny – $13 for a family-size (using a coupon, of course.) With frequent coupons and a limit of 3 per coupon, I order three pizzas, pay, and bring them home. I bake one to eat and freeze the other two for future meals or to minister to a family in need.

With customer appreciation day in full-swing, our family will enjoy this affordable dinner solution this weekend. Thank you, Papa Murphy’s!
