PIZZA HUT® NewLIL’ WINGS Deal
Pizza Hut is giving fans a reason to look forward to Wednesdays with its revamped Wing Wednesday® platform. The program kicks off with a new deal designed to hook you up with 20 Lil’ Wings for $10. To celebrate the new midweek declaration that Wednesdays should be a Wingsday, Pizza Hut drops a new campaign: Wingfluencer. Leaning into corporate culture and the slump many Americans report midweek, Pizza Hut’s Wingfluencer program is designed to drop some joy, laughs and wingspiration to get through the week.
The middle of the week is tough and a bit lackluster, but office lunches, snack breaks and dinner plans don’t have to be with Pizza Hut’s new Lil’ Wings. Lil’ Wings are snackable, crispy, fried wings tossed in your favorite sauce or rub. Whether working through lunch or unwinding after hours, Pizza Hut is making Wednesdays better starting today through November 5 at participating locations.
“We wanted to give fans a reason to look forward to the middle of the week,” said Melissa Friebe, Chief Marketing Officer at Pizza Hut. “With amazing, craveable wings at an unbeatable deal, Wing Wednesday is our way of inviting people to try just how good Lil’ Wings are and enjoy a little midweek flavor boost they know Pizza Hut for.”
Pizza Hut’s new Wingfluencer, Brian Flatsworth, leverages corporate culture lingo to lend humorous corporate advice in videos and social commentary on LinkedIn. The Wingfluencer will start dropping “pro tips” on how wing lovers can maximize the return on lunches with Lil’ Wings this week.

ALDI Offers a Full Thanksgiving Meal for $40
For years, ALDI has offered the lowest per-person price on a Thanksgiving meal compared to nationwide retailers. This year, the country’s fastest-growing grocer continues that tradition by offering a Thanksgiving feast for prices even lower than last year’s. For just $40*, shoppers can build a full spread for 10 with the Thanksgiving favorites they love – including the turkey and ingredients for nine crowd-pleasing sides.
“The ALDI commitment to low prices is unwavering and I am thrilled that we are able to offer an even more affordable holiday meal than last year,” said Atty McGrath, CEO, ALDI U.S. “Saving our shoppers money is our mission every day— but is especially important during the holidays when they need it most.”
For $4 per person —less than a pumpkin spice latte – ALDI shoppers can purchase all the items needed to fill their tables. This includes 21 total products and ingredients to dish out a 14-pound turkey, rolls, cranberry sauce, mac and cheese, stuffing, mashed potatoes with gravy, sweet potato casserole, green bean casserole and pumpkin pie. Items that are part of the meal are purchased individually and marked on shelf. No coupons or memberships needed.
The savings couldn’t come at a better time. Recent consumer price reports show staples like fruits, vegetables, and meats are more expensive than last year, contributing to higher grocery prices overall **. Lowering its already low prices for the Thanksgiving season is just one more way ALDI helps shoppers save. In fact, a family of four can save up to $4,000 a year when they shop ALDI***, from everyday meals to holiday spreads.
“Thanksgiving is the biggest food holiday of the year, and ALDI is proud to lead the industry once again on price,” said Scott Patton CCO, ALDI U.S. “Price leadership is part of our DNA, and the holidays are when our commitment to value really shines. We believe families shouldn’t have to make trade-offs to feed everyone, especially at Thanksgiving.”
Shoppers can build their ALDI Thanksgiving feast by heading to their local ALDI store, ordering online for curbside pickup or placing an order through grocery delivery partners including Instacart, Uber Eats, and DoorDash beginning October 15 through December 24****. No matter how they shop, families can count on ALDI to make holiday hosting simple, convenient, and affordable.

The Big Boy Restaurant Group is CLOSING all Dolly’s Restaurants
Big Boy Restaurant Group has made the difficult decision to discontinue operations in the Cincinnati and Dayton markets.Six months ago, the company entered Southwest Ohio with one goal in mind — to preserve and rejuvenate the beloved Big Boy brand that has meant so much to families across this region for nearly nine decades. At that time, many Big Boy–branded restaurants not operated by the company were closing, and Big Boy Restaurant Group sought to bring stability, quality, and a renewed sense of nostalgia back to an area that has always been part of the brand’s story.
Before opening its first restaurant, Big Boy Restaurant Group was served with a temporary restraining order preventing the company from using the Big Boy name in its Southwest Ohio locations. In response, the company quickly adapted and launched six restaurants under the name Dolly’s, continuing to serve guests and uphold the brand’s long-standing commitment to family dining and hospitality while the legal process continued.
Despite the dedication of its team members and the support of the community, the litigation remains unresolved, and the company is still unable to operate under the Big Boy name in this market. After careful evaluation, Big Boy Restaurant Group has determined that continuing to operate under these conditions is no longer sustainable or beneficial for its employees or the brand.
As a result, the company will close its six existing Dolly’s restaurants, with the final day of operations on October 23, 2025.
Big Boy Restaurant Group extends its sincere appreciation to all Dolly’s team members for their professionalism, resilience, and commitment throughout this period. The company also expresses heartfelt gratitude to the Cincinnati and Dayton communities for their warm welcome and loyal support over the past several months.
While Big Boy Restaurant Group is stepping back from the Southwest Ohio market at this time, the company remains hopeful that once the matter is resolved, it will be able to return and reopen its doors under the Big Boy name.
Big Boy Restaurant Group, LLC, headquartered in Southfield, Michigan, continues to operate locations throughout Michigan and other U.S. markets and remains dedicated to delivering great food, friendly service, and a nostalgic dining experience that guests have loved since 1936.
An Evening with Ellis Paul
Ellis Paul doesn’t just write songs; he’s a guitar-toting storyteller who captures the human condition and details the hopes, loves, and losses of those he observes, transforming their stories into luminous pieces of music that reach deep into your soul. Much like the artists who have inspired him, from Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, and Paul Simon to the singer-songwriter he most admires, Woody Guthrie, Paul combines deeply personal experiences with social issues to create provocative works that feel both timely and timeless. Born and raised in Maine, Paul attended Boston College on a track scholarship and became a regular on the city’s open-mic circuit in the evenings. After winning a Boston Acoustic Underground songwriter competition, he caught the attention of folk legend Bill Morrissey, who produced his indie album “Say Something” in 1993. This led to a seven-album contract with Rounder Records and the release of “Stories” in 1994.
His songs have appeared in several blockbuster films (Me, Myself, and Irene; Shallow Hal, Hall Pass) and have been covered by award-winning country artists (Sugarland, Kristian Bush, Jack Ingram). Through a steady succession of his own albums — a remarkable 23 releases so far – and a constant touring presence around the world, Paul’s audience has grown into a loyal legion of fans. Along the way, he has picked up an impressive number of awards, including the prestigious Kerrville New Folk Award, 15 Boston Music Awards, an Honorary Doctorate from the University of Maine, the 2019 International Acoustic Music Awards Artist of the Year, and most recently, his album, The Storyteller’s Suitcase, was named the 2019 NERFA Album of the Year.
His new album “55” touches on the importance of gratitude in a tough era marked by the pandemic and divided political stances on his own label, Rosella Records.

Cup Noodles New Turkey Dinner and Pumpkin Pie Flavors
Cup Noodles® has something for you to be extra thankful for this year: Say goodbye to dry – Cup Noodles® Turkey Dinner and Cup Noodles® Pumpkin Pie are putting “moist” on the table this Thanksgiving and turning America’s most cringe-worthy word into this season’s biggest compliment.
No more overcooked turkey, parched pumpkin pie crusts, or dry conversations. These new seasonal flavors offer everything you love about the Thanksgiving meal and solves the one thing you do not; dryness. Perfectly seasoned, ready in minutes – dare we say it? – deliciously moist. “Moist” may be recognized as one of the most divisive words in the English language, but it’s also what saves a Thanksgiving feast from falling flat.
From savory herbs and rich turkey seasonings to pumpkin pie bliss – this is holiday nostalgia served in five minutes flat.
- Turkey Dinner combines the rich essence of herb-seasoned turkey broth with sweet corn, tangy cranberry bursts, crisp green beans, warming spices, and tender noodles.
- For dessert Pumpkin Pie delivers satisfying pumpkin flavor blended with caramelized brown sugar sweetness and signature pie spices that feel like a bite of moist homemade pumpkin pie.
“We all know nothing can dampen the holiday spirit quicker than a dry Thanksgiving meal – whether it’s the food or boring dinner table conversation,” said Priscila Stanton, Senior Vice President of Marketing, Nissin Foods USA. “With Cup Noodles Turkey Dinner and Pumpkin Pie, we’re delivering the full Thanksgiving experience – from main course to dessert – in minutes with the moist, slurpable goodness our fans crave.”
Turkey Dinner and Pumpkin Pie continue the Cup Noodles legacy of delicious flavor innovation. From our summer fling with Dill Pickle to the viral sensation of Campfire S’mores, this latest flavor innovation pushes the boundaries of what noodles can be to bring fans the festive, bold flavors they love.
Throughout the season, Cup Noodles’ social channels will be tapping into holiday food debates, avoiding “dry” family dinner conversations with juicy hot takes, and creating share-worthy meme and video posts – all while celebrating these bold new flavors that deliver the most slurpable Thanksgiving yet.
This flavor duo is exclusive to Walmart locations nationwide and on Walmart.com (Turkey Dinner and Pumpkin Pie) available for $1.18 a cup. Like all good things about the holidays, they’re only here for a limited time!

An Evening of Jazz, Bossa Nova, and Global Harmony at Joui Wine
This Wednesday, Dayton music lovers are invited to experience something truly special: an intimate concert featuring the remarkable musical partnership of trombonist and vocalist Natalie Cressman and composer and guitarist Ian Faquini at Joui Wine. Presented by Venus Child Productions, the evening promises an evening of sophisticated jazz, Brazilian grooves, and enchanting vocals that will transport audiences across continents and musical traditions. Local singer and recent Berklee graduate Kammeron Frost opens up this special evening of live music.
Though calling Cressman and Faquini a duo understates the depth of their musical collaboration, their partnership represents something far more expansive. Hailing from San Francisco and Brasilia respectively, the two artists have cultivated a singular creative communion that draws from their shared love of the Brazilian songbook, jazz, Impressionism, and sophisticated pop songcraft.
What sets this duo apart is their fearless eclecticism. Their original compositions weave lyrics in Portuguese, French, and English into a rich tapestry of sounds that borrows from multiple stylistic traditions. Accompanied by the warm tones of acoustic guitar and trombone, their sumptuous two-part vocal harmonies create a richly orchestrated sound that belies the intimate duo format, seeming to emanate from a much larger ensemble.
Cressman, a trombonist, vocalist, and songwriter, brings sophisticated melodic sensibility to the ensemble, while Faquini’s composition and guitar work provide both harmonic depth and rhythmic vitality. Together, they’ve created a sound that feels both timeless and contemporary, sophisticated yet deeply soulful.
HOW TO GO?
Join Natalie Cressman and Ian Faquini for an evening of live music this Wednesday, October 15, 2025 at Joui Wine, located at 117 E 3rd St, Dayton, OH. Doors open at 7:00 p.m., with the show running from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m.
Tickets are available for $20 in advance or $25 at the door. This is an event for ages 21 and up.
