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.

  I feel like people have to be purposefully missing the point to make comments like this.

  You used to be able to just order pizza and it be a reasonable price. I’d you have to do research and build out a coupon spreadsheet just to get a responsible price, that’s a problem.

    This post is a good mildly infuriating post. The pizza does cost too much.

    However, it also seems like the poster wasn’t ready for discussion when posting to a discussion board.

    Exactly, thanks god. Is mildly infuriating read comments with people reasoning the late stage capitalism practice with basically “git gud” mentality

    Idk in the days where you had to call in you still had to ask if they had deals… Otherwise you’re paying menu price (unless the cashier was feeling extra nice)

      Sure, I think deals and coupons were always a thing, but there were actually deals. I can’t speak for everyone, but I feel like these “deals” now just take an inflated price and make it reasonable. They’re not a deal so much anymore, just a way to make things somewhat reasonably priced.

        I just paid $2.67usd after tax for a large pepperoni Domino’s pizza. That’s a deal.

      EXACTLY. This isn’t new or news.
