COPPELL, TX, September 22, 2010 (Press-News.org) Back-to-school and busy lives have many families feeling pinched for time and strapped for cash. But with CiCi's $3.99 all-you-can-eat buffet deal from September 22 - October 3, families can fit a sit-down meal with incredible quality and a great price into their busy schedules.

"We're still celebrating CiCi's 25th anniversary with our $3.99 offer as a thank you to our loyal guests," said Nancy Hampton, Chief Marketing Officer for CiCi's Pizza. "Fall is busier than ever for many people, and so for two weeks CiCi's will offer hot and fresh pizza and endless value in a fun, easy atmosphere at a celebratory price."

Here's how CiCi's $3.99 anniversary deal makes it easy for families and other guests to find endless value at lunch and dinner:

1. Find time for your family to be together at CiCi's.
Studies show kids who eat most often with their parents are 40 percent more likely to say they get mainly As and Bs in school than kids who have two or fewer family dinners a week. With kids' busy school schedules and extra-curricular activities, CiCi's is a quick, affordable way to have a sit-down family dinner.

2. Save money at CiCi's.
A recent survey shows the average household spends $606.40 for back-to-school needs. CiCi's serves up an affordable, family dinner with choices for everyone. For less than $4, CiCi's buffet features unlimited hot soup, fresh breadsticks and crisp salad, up to 20 fresh pizzas and gooey oven-baked desserts for only $3.99.

3. CiCi's provides your family balanced meal options.
The veggie pizzas, salad and soups at CiCi's mean you can offer your family a well-rounded meal with foods from all the food groups. For parents, two Vegetarian Italiano slices are equivalent to three Weight Watchers points. Sneak in more vegetables for kids - CiCi's takes special orders, so ask for some green peppers on that pepperoni pizza.

4. Remove the veto vote with CiCi's variety.
Every family's been there: One person wants ham and pineapple, but someone else won't eat anything but plain cheese. CiCi's has the answer to family harmony with its buffet featuring up to 20 piping hot pizzas straight from the oven. And if guests don't see their favorite pizza on the buffet, CiCi's will make it. It's our Hot and Fresh Guarantee. At CiCi's, choice rules.

5. CiCi's offers great taste at a great price.
Value is about quality foods like whole-milk mozzarella cheese, special seasoning blends, always fresh ingredients and dough made by hand throughout the day. At CiCi's, delicious food is always the first, middle and last priority.
