Your family's Friday night pizza tradition just got a lot more affordable.
For families ordering pizza regularly, those $30 to $50 orders add up fast. Over a year, you're looking at hundreds—sometimes over a thousand dollars—spent on pizza delivery. Aurelio's Pizza understands this reality, which is why their rewards program was designed to put money back in your pocket with every order.
The Real Cost of Regular Pizza Orders
Most families order pizza at least twice a month. That's 24 orders annually. At an average of $40 per order, you're spending $960 on pizza alone. The Aurelio's rewards app changes that math entirely.
The program works simply: earn points with every purchase, whether you're ordering pizza delivery, picking up takeout, or dining in at their Homewood, Illinois location. Those points translate directly into discounts on future orders. For regular customers, the savings compound quickly.
How the Points System Works
Every dollar you spend earns you points. These points accumulate in your account, accessible through the app anytime. Once you reach certain thresholds, you can redeem them for free menu items or discounts on your total order.
The app also provides access to exclusive deals not available to walk-in customers or those ordering without it. These app-only promotions often include percentage discounts on large orders—particularly valuable for families ordering multiple pizzas, Italian beef sandwiches, or pasta dishes for the whole household.
Birthday Rewards and Special Perks
Members receive birthday rewards, adding another layer of savings throughout the year. If you have multiple family members in your household, each can maintain their own account, multiplying the benefits your family receives.
The app sends notifications about time-sensitive deals, ensuring you don't miss opportunities to save. Flash sales, limited-time offers on specialty pizzas like the Calabrese, and seasonal promotions all appear directly on your phone.
Maximizing Your Savings Strategy
Smart families approach the rewards program strategically. First, download the app before your next order—even your first purchase through it starts earning points. Second, consolidate your family's orders rather than placing multiple small ones throughout the week. A single larger order earns more points faster.
Third, watch for double-points promotions. These periodic offers accelerate your progress toward redemption thresholds significantly. Fourth, if you're planning pizza catering for a birthday party or family gathering, ordering through the app means you're earning substantial points on what's already a larger purchase.
Finally, combine app rewards with create-your-own pizza options. Building your own pizza often costs less than specialty pies, and when you're earning points on top of that lower base price, the savings multiply.
Setting Up Takes Five Minutes
Getting started requires minimal effort. Search "Aurelio's Pizza" in your phone's app store, download the rewards pizza app, and create an account. You'll need to provide basic information—name, email, phone number—then you're ready to start earning.
The interface shows your current point balance, available rewards, and active promotions. Ordering through the app is straightforward, with options for pizza delivery or pickup. You can save your favorite orders, making repeat purchases even faster.
The Long-Term Value for Pizza-Loving Families
Consider the family ordering pizza twice monthly at $40 per order. With consistent app usage and strategic redemption of rewards, they could realistically save $150 to $200 annually—possibly more if they take advantage of app-exclusive deals and double-points events.
That's not accounting for birthday rewards, which add additional value. For a family of four, that's four separate birthday perks throughout the year.
These savings don't require coupons you'll forget or complex loyalty programs with confusing rules. The app tracks everything automatically. You simply order, earn, and redeem when you're ready.
Beyond the Savings
While the financial benefits matter most, the app offers convenience that saves time too. No more calling in orders or repeating your address and phone number. Your information stays saved, your past orders remain accessible for quick reordering, and you can track your delivery in real-time.
For families managing busy schedules, these small time-savers add up just like the financial ones.
Traditional Italian Pizza Meets Modern Rewards
Aurelio's Pizza has served the Homewood community since 1959, building their reputation on traditional Italian pizza made with quality ingredients. The rewards program represents their commitment to giving back to the families who've supported them for decades.
The pizza franchise maintains the same standards for their Italian pizza, pasta, and other menu items whether you order through the app or walk through their doors. The difference is simply that app users get more value from every purchase.
