Happy Weekend to you all!!

Whew, the Olympics are over.... and by that I mean - It's hard work giving out 204,000 MVP points!!  I don't see how these athletes do it.  Next time... more training for me.  See if you got some free MVP points. I worked hard giving them out, the least you could do is see if you won: http://betweenthebuns.com/olympics.html

I've mentioned it before, and I'll mention it again - FANTASY FOOTBALL is the theme right now.  Dudes & dudettes are putting their teams together, hoping to get their players in the draft.  You'll have better luck with your team if you HOST YOUR DRAFT at the Buns.  We're giving away soooo much stuff!!  Each draft gets:

Coming soon, details on our Irish in Ireland parties!!  Stay tuned....

And don't miss out on today's Double & Triple plays.  They're really quite a deal when you think about it. http://betweenthebuns.com/Menuspcl-Thur.html

Well, it's back to the restaurant I go.... If you come into the Elkhart Buns, tell me you read this and who knows......

It's Getting Interesting

So the Buns world has been shaken up a bit since the sudden separation of Phil from the Buns family.

Many of you have become attached to some of our managers, and we're just doing a little shuffling around.  Those of you who knew Jeff, he'll soon be located at our Granger location.  Bri, the General Manager of Elkhart is moving to the South Bend store and is looking forward to her new team.
Yours truly is going to be running the Elkhart Buns starting Monday.  So that's all the fun stuff.

As for what's new at the Buns.....

We're still taking reservations for Fantasy Football Draft Parties.  We want to give out lots of coupons, lots of wings & drinks and lots of Drinking Team Hats.  http://betweenthebuns.com/ffball2012.html  Call & reserve your league's draft party today!
Osceola :: 679-4474
South Bend :: 247-9293
Elkhart :: 206-9900
Granger :: 243-8889
~ ~ ~ Operators are standing by ~ ~ ~

And we've got food specials almost every day that changed a few weeks back.  If you haven't seen them yet, here's the list: http://betweenthebuns.com/Menuspcl.html

Today (Monday) is DOUBLE MVP POINTS day!  Use your MVP card & get to your rewards twice as fast.

Soon - I'll be able to tell y'all what we're doing for the Sept 1 Irish in Ireland Game.  Can't wait to tell ya!

That about covers it for today.

The last week has been crazy as some of you might know....

Yes, it's true... Phil is no longer working for Between the Buns.  Yes, he was and continues to be an owner.  He will no longer be working in the restaurants, he'll be sitting back as an owner.  We wish him the best.

Dave - now in SBend

At this time, you might notice some management changes.  Jeff, the General Manager of our South Bend store has moved into the Granger location to replace Phil, and I (Dave) have moved into South Bend to take Jeff's position.  Of course, no one could ever 'replace' Phil in Granger nor Jeff in SBend.  Everyone is just trying to fill their predecessor's shoes.

But enough of that, on to the fun stuff!!

The Olympic promotion is going strong!!  We've given out over 45,000 MVP points so far with 150,000 more to go.  Use your MVP card to be entered into each store's daily drawing.  See if you won one of the daily medals.  Details here: http://betweenthebuns.com/olympics.html

Also, FOOTBALL IS COMING!!  Which means fantasy football is coming.  We're doing a great promotion - Free Wings, Free Drinks, Free Coupon Books.  Check it all out: http://betweenthebuns.com/ffball2012.html

But other than that, marketing is kind of on hold for a while since I have to step back from the marketing (among other things) to work in a restaurant.

See you in the stores soon!!
