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 will say it again- that is a waste of food. I am not going to eat it, my daughter doesn’t like cold or reheated pizza and it’s not like I’m going to shove it down her throat.

  I am not going to waste food to get a better deal.

  And I will also say this again- why should I use a coupon if Domino’s can afford to charge less anyway? They should just charge less.

    You are right, I hate that I have to navigate a bizarre maze of mathematical conundrums just to order food. I avoid ordering I’m general but the rare time I do it annoys me every time and I always feel like I’m getting ripped off.

    Stop getting worked up over opinions from some basement dwelling goblins. What authority do people here hold over whatever shit you do with your family?

      Apparently, everything I say is a lie. So maybe I’m the troll?

        the issue isn’t you’re lying.

        the issue is you’re complaining about a fault with you, and blaming it on someone else. The fact you’re not taking responsibility is why you’re being dragged through the mud.

        your post should be “oops, I forgot to use a coupon like a normal person and forgot to ask the store if they had any deals. look what my stupidity got me!” and you’d have some chuckles and some commiserations.

        Instead, you’re trying to blame Domino’s for you not knowing that coupons have existed since the 1800s or something.

    You all keep downvoting me without telling me why Domino’s shouldn’t just charge less when they can afford to.

    Ideally they would charge less, but people are willing to pay the higher prices, so they charge the higher prices. We live in a capitalist society, and they’ll increase the prices as high as the market can bear.

    A lot of companies increase their prices but have coupons that bring the price down. Easy way for them to make more money, as not every customer will use the coupons.

      It’s dumb, but it is what it is.

        Yeah, for sure. Same reason a bunch of subscription stuff goes up in price after a year or two.
