Pasta Mania dinner

had dinner wif alex & karen @ TPY's pasta mania last nite.

we shared 2 pastas and 1 pizza but still the spread looks too much!

didn't even finish the garlic bread so i tabao back.

2nd time tat i realise they r not forecoming in giving u discounts and privileges tat u r entitled to.

every main = 1 chop and 6 chops = 1 free dessert.

the last time tat i ate at bugis junction wif LJ & HQ, they gave mi the card wif our 3 chops after i asked for it. same thing last nite, i had to ask them for a card.

if the purpose of the card is to build loyalty & create repeat sales, shouldn't the staff b promoting tat proactively?

if the cost of the loyalty program is too high, they'll need to review the program.

but to continue wif a program tat they'r not supporting actively is reli no point.

compare tis wif macdonald's membership which is so user frenly. EVERYTIME i go to macdonald's, their staff will ask if i'm a member after i place my orders. i m beli appreciative of their efforts and yes, it does pay off. i enjoy earning points for my purchases and redeeming them for treats.

and the redemption is so easy and available 24/7 at the booths located in every mac branch. great set-up & consideration for their customers.

yes, QQ & YY were converted fans by fries & balloons respectively. and i m converted by their excellent loyalty program.
