Well done, Cheesecake Factory! :D

On my birthday too! *gasps* I think I'll gain 10lbs that day now!!!! LOL :D

[Red Kittie Kat]

I need to locate a Factory near here :p

[garricks]

Ask The Googe's Map department! :D

[Red Kittie Kat]

Oooh there is one in Albany ... now if I can scrape together enough change for gas :p

[Yossarian]

Hmm, July 30th, I've got vacation time scheduled then too... maybe swing by the Apple store also since it's right near there. A plan is forming.

[marshdesign]

OH NO! I will be out of town! I frequent the factory almost every month too! Thats a much better price than the 7.95 price tag my my favorite, THE GODIVA DARK CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE!!!

I would so eat avo cheesecake :D

[WannaBrie]

Aww, man, I'm gonna be out of town that week, too! I don't think they have one where I'm going either. boo.

[garricks]

Addendum: The $1.50/slice price is dine-in only. :( So I'm not going to be able to fill my freezer with cheezcake after all.

[Yossarian]

^Depends on how dedicated you are! :)

[Craig B]

Well Yossarian, depending on your view of dedication, it sounds as if that might require freezing regurgitated, or, um, processed cheesecake. No thanks.

[Red Kittie Kat]

well that blows :(

Forget it ... its a ploy to get you to buy other things ... I just want cheesecake! :D

[Virgo Nightingale]

Does that price only apply only with purchase of entree? Cuz I could totally see someone going in and ordering 6 slices of cheesecake for dinner.

[Yossarian]

Your thinking is way more biological than mine, Craig. :eek: I was just thinking multiple disguises, slipping out after they bring the cheesecake, and an ice chest in the car. I suppose you'd have to just leave all the money on the table or feign illness after they bring it out and ask them to box it up for you.

No "processed" cheesecake for me, thanks. :D

OK, my bad, I went to the actual Cheesecake Factory site and got the release:

I adore cheesecake.

I was totally gutted when our local "The Cheesecake Factory" store closed shop.
