Want to Save Money on Pizza at Wegmans? Check Out This Tip the Pizza Department Taught Me!

We all probably know that the cheapest way to buy pizza is to buy a frozen pizza with a coupon. Even homemade wouldn’t be that cheap (even though it would taste a lot better!)  But as for me and my family, or favorite pizza is Wegmans pizza.  Not Wegmans frozen pizza – the fresh pizza from the pizza department in the prepared foods section.  One downfall though is that one slice can cost the same as an entire frozen pizza with a coupon would cost!  But this is one area we like to splurge on anyway because it tastes better!

Plus I learned a great tip from the guy helping me at the Pizza department!

Last week my daughter had a nasty cold and fever and was lounging on the couch all day.  I asked her if there was anything that sounded good for her to eat because her appetite wasn’t the greatest either.

The only thing she wanted was Wegmans cheese pizza.  I can’t say that I blame her because I love it too.  

I was super mom that day and made a special trip to Wegmans just to get her, her own slice of cheese pizza.  One single slice of cheese pizza costs I believe $2.50.

While I was there I was going to get a slice for me and my husband too, bringing the total to $7.50.  Then my husband piped up and said to just order a medium, and then we may have some left over for the next day’s lunch.

I thought that was a good idea, so I went ahead and called and placed my order.

When I got to Wegmans, the guy at the pizza department was all apologetic because he messed up my order.

He made us a large instead of a medium.  I was laughing and was like, stop apologizing – you just made my day!  Then he told me that they would only charge me for the medium anyway.

 Then he told me that there is only a PENNY difference between a medium and a large, so if you are ordering a cheese pizza, always just order the large!

I seriously did not know that!  I had to go look it up – it’s true!  Look over here at the Wegmans menu – a medium cheese is $9.99 and a large cheese is $10!

The large pizza is the equivalent of 8 single slices that cost $2.50 each.  So if you are going to buy more than one slice, you may as well just get a large!

Each slice in a large ends up being $1.25 – that’s half off the price of the individual slices!  You can also choose 8 slices of pre-made pizza and still pay just $10!

I’m sure some of you may have already known that tip, but I didn’t.  So in case you were in la la land with me, I thought I’d share.  🙂
