We Will Pizza!

[NWICY]

Awesome. Here’s the issue. Honest opinion please. We can sell them to Iowa States concession folks for about $3.50 after pizza, packaging, shipping, etc. Iowa State’s concession vendor wants to charge $13-14! for a personal size pizza. Would that reflect poorly on We Will or understandable that we can’t control end cost?

I would have guessed $10.

That’s probably a bit much for a personal pan, dang! Wasn’t trying to criticize btw.

Sheesh, yeah, wouldn't pay that. And I agree with others, I think most world just put that on We Will and assume you're trying to gouge everybody.

What is the price on those crappy ones they sell currently at Jack Trice? Whatever those are, add about $3-4 to the price and I'd pay it.

We would understand it. But us CF lifers are obviously quite a bit more intelligent than the rest of the fan base.

Maybe then people would see it, look up what "WeWill" is and gain more members? Nope people would probably just complain and wonder what WeWill pizza is.

All concessions are way over-priced, $5 for a bottle of water! Also, I think that most people would consider it a donation event like buying Girl Scout cookies. I think that most people would think that We Will is getting a bigger share of the revenue though. I’d try it. If it is not successful, it seems unlikely to give you much bad PR. If it is successful, you may be able to negotiate a bigger slice of the pie!

yeah good luck with negotiating that lol......but worth a shot. The answer is always no if you don't ask.

How much are the regular pizzas in stores? I don’t have an option near me so no idea but you can’t go over double that price no matter what.

For the regular size they’re about $9.50 after tax

10-12 dollars, for a 12"(?) Pizza , pretty good though. I pick some up when I'm in Ames or the DM metro

Go by this I might be misremembering

Yeah I believe it was under $10 all 3 times I bought a bunch. Interesting because I've seen people say $12 plus tax for Ames Lager but in Adel they are $10.99 a 6 pack. Either way.....I'm buying

 

[kcdc4isu]

I bought two at the Grand Ave Hy-Vee in WDM and they were $8.99 each last Saturday.

Illegal isn’t the right term. Iowa State’s multi media rights holder requires an investment in order to be a part of the official school functions. We have to make sure it’s worth the cost. On that front, would you all purchase personal We Will pizzas if in Jack Trice this Fall?

Hell yeah I would

 

[chadly82]

I stand corrected, Adel liquor store has 6 pack Ames Lager for $9.99. Interesting differences here

Why does the AD continue to work with Levy if that is the type of gouging they want to do. They don’t even staff half the stands and the execution is abysmal. There has to be a more cost effective way to do concessions.
