RID THE WORLD OF MICROWAVE POPCORN

 

Okay, here is an offer you hopefully won’t be able to ignore.  We all know by now how horrible microwave popcorn is for our bodies, and we’ve all seen the studies and heard the news reports about how the carcinogens and oils in it are our arteries’ worst nightmare!  So, in celebration of August—back to school month—Papa Dean’s Popcorn will give every customer who brings us an un-popped bag of any-brand microwave popcorn, a complimentary small bag of any A or B flavor popcorn—that’s true, gourmet, healthy, corn oil-popped popcorn! Here are some criteria:  one offer per person per month.  Microwave bag must be unopened. And you must wear a smile when the transaction occurs.

Welcome, Georgia!

Meet the newest Team Papa member.

Georgia with Katherine on Georgia's first dayWe are so thrilled to have her on board.  Georgia has an extensive background in food service and customer service.  Originally from Houston, Georgia has called San Antonio her home for the past 6 years.  We’re just as happy as a just-fed ranch hand to have her!

 

 

 

 

 

SNACK TO SCHOOL

 

Yea, it’s that time again… you’re buying new book bags, sharpening the pencils, and thinking about the friends you can’t wait to see again.  Well, we want to remind you to not forget the popcorn snacks!  Why not bring a bag of our famous pocket popcorn to all your classmates and teacher on the first day of school?

 

 

                                                                                          

Planning A Winter Wedding?

Check this out!  A couple who recently had a popcorn bar at their wedding was kind enough to drop by photographs for us.  We are very grateful.  Check it out; this is a fabulous and unique offering for your wedding guests.  Here’s the inside scoop:  A winter wedding is more “user-friendly” to popcorn than a summer wedding because popcorn prefers cooler temperatures.  So, think about adding a little “pop” to that wedding.  You will make ALLLL your guests POPular!  Come by and chat about your ideas with us – we’d love to be a part of your plans!

10-in-a-Tin
 

 


Can’t make up your mind as to what flavors you want?  We’ve got the perfect solution for you!  You can get our 10-in-a-tin sampler tin.  It will hold 10 different flavors; 2 in each of our 5 categories.  Each bag is one serving size (2 cups) and you just open ‘em when you need to – nothing wasted, nothing stale!  Check it out!  It’s our 10-in-a-Tin – we’re soooo clever!  $40.00 (shipping not included)

AUGUST FEATURED FLAVOR:   Chile Limón

 

One of our most recently-created flavors, Chile Limon has become a huge hit with both regulars and newcomers alike! The original San Antonio flavor gets our Papa Dean’s twist with a little extra tangy lime. Insider’s tip: save the extra spice at the bottom of your bag and add it to a bag of our delicious plain popcorn if you just can’t get enough of that Chile Limon!

Augustis birthday month for      Papa Dean’s!

 

A very happy birthday to three members of Team Papa (that’s half!) this August: Georgia, Katherine, and Steve will all be celebrating this month! In honor of this cluster of birthdays, we will be offering a complimentary small A or B flavor bag of popcorn to anyone who can show that his or her birthday is in August. Pop on in and join in the celebration!    

       

       

Goodbye, Amy!

Our summer Aggie is leaving us to return to College Station for her sophomore year at Texas A&M University.  She has promised to return to P.D. on her future breaks! We cannot say enough wonderful things about Amy.  She has been a pleasure to us and a pleasure to our customers.  We will dearly miss her “paint” skills (inside joke). Good luck Amy and we’ll see you soon.

 

It’s not our fault!

Unfortunately, as difficult as it was, effective August 1st, we have had to raise our popcorn prices very slightly.  Actually, 30 cents to be exact on bags and tins.  Our prices have increased so dramatically, and they have been steadily rising for about 6 months, so we felt it was finally time.  Thank you for understanding.  

 

COUPOP

Bring this in to Papa Dean’s on your next visit and receive 50% off any size tin with any combination of flavors.  One Coupop per person.  This Coupop will not be accepted if photocopied.
