Comment on I ordered my daughter a pizza, something I don't usually do. I got Domino's smallest size with two toppings. I got her cheese sticks and two sauces and tipped the driver 20%. $31.07.

  Don’t complain about how things work when you don’t know how things work XD

  Again, why is it my fault that Domino’s is taking advantage of my not knowing how their system works? The last time I ordered a pizza before this, you had to do it by phone. I don’t order pizza. So why should I be expected to know how ordering pizza over the internet works? Am I supposed to absorb the information indirectly somehow?

    Buddy I’m not “defending deceptive corporate practices”, I’m trying to teach you how to use the deals they shove in your face so you can save money.

    Domino’s isn’t “taking advantage of you not knowing how the system works” when they plaster the deals in all caps on their homepage. They want you to use the deals, and make it very easy to use the deals.

    I would think there’d be less obstinate boomerism on Lemmy, but apparently not. You have eyes, you have fingers, and presumably a brain. You could have used them, you didn’t. You paid more than you had to as a result.

      Considering people keep insisting I do something I didn’t know was a thing I could do and berating me for not knowing it, I think getting mildly annoyed by people saying that, and the people telling me to get takeout when I can’t, is damn reasonable after dealing with people saying it for a day.

      I’m sorry I don’t know what I don’t know and I’m tired of getting berated for not knowing what I don’t know as if I somehow should have known it through osmosis.

      I’m not a boomer, I’m 46. I just don’t order pizza. Hence my putting that in the headline. I probably won’t order pizza again either unless something unexpected like this happens again.

        I feel for you dude, the pizza should just be the fair price without having to dive into some stupid deal system. Just sell the pizza for the price of the damn pizza. The other guy sounds like a silly domino’s evangelical lmao. “I have dominos wisdom, hear my words!!”

        Such a weird thing to defend their business practices, it’s not even quality pizza.

        Hey man, just wanted to say that I'm on your side

        I hate it that prices ate getting somewhat hidden or I need to shop in a specific manner to get a discount.
        Just tell me your fucking price and then I'll decide, if it's worth it for me.
        I don't care to read or search through your website for offers. I want to order what I want and that's fucking it
