This past week had been a little hectic. Trying to finish up Christmas shopping, parties and school functions made for a busy few days. So when my son asked to have a movie night, I decided to grab our favorite holiday movie and a have a pizza night at home.
I picked up Coca-Cola® and a take and bake pizza (located in the deli) from my local WinCo Foods. Because no matter how you slice it, pizza tastes better with Coca-Cola! But if we are being honest, doesn’t everything taste better with Coca-Cola?
WinCo moved into my area within the last couple of years and it has been wonderful. They are a employee-owned company and are the supermarket low price leader. I am all about saving money. Speaking of, make sure you save $1 when you buy any WinCo Pizza and (2) 2-Liter Coca-Cola Beverages! (Offer Ends 2/28/18)
