I used to work at a Dominos, and their side items have always ludicrously priced for a while. There’s usually a “coupon” in their app with a substantial discount on pizza, it’s the only way I’d order from them.
In Canada we still Domino’s have coupons on the website and sometimes they are even mailed out.
And yeah, to get a decent deal you have to only order the pizza, pick it up yourself, get drinks and sides anywhere else if you want them. I’m a sucker for cinnamon sticks and icing that many chains offer.
there were coupons on the website he ordered from. He chose to ignore them and pay extra so he could make a post on Lemmy to drive up engagement (I am presuming, at this point)
The best deals you usually only get 3 or 2 toppings as well.
I can make a nice pizza with 2, but 2 often feels lacking.

There’s a reason for this, they want you to download the app because you’re paying for that coupon via primary access to your personal data. Dominos isn’t just a pizza company, for a long time now they have been a data broker too.
Which I guess isn’t surprising, everyone and their mother wants to be a data broker today. It’s a good reason not to install any apps from anyone though.

I have questions about how useful the basic information Dominos gets from me from their app will be to anyone. Android doesn’t let them just harvest roaming data any more.
