Note I did not buy any food for myself.
To head off questions:
-
No, I couldn’t cook for her. I’m suffering from a long-term illness where I can’t eat solid foods and am extremely smell sensitive. My wife is at a funeral, so I had to order food.
-
She’s extremely picky and refused to let me order anything but pizza.
-
We live outside of town, in a not very big town, with very few pizza delivery options, and they’re all at least this expensive.
-
No, I didn’t also have to buy her the cheesy bread or the second topping or the sauces, but it’s nice to get my daughter a treat and that is no excuse for the order being that expensive.
-
We’re in Indiana, so this should be ludicrous in terms of pricing. This used to be the pricing I would expect when we lived in L.A. and ordered from a good local place rather than a chain.
You need to train your little slave how to run a gas powered chainsaw. I refuse to believe you didn’t know that stores have apps that feature coupons… NERD 😝
Not sure where based op, but a pizza counter top oven (5 minutes) is around €80 in Europe since inflation, but can still be found for around €60 in sales. I guess if there are similar ovens and similar prices that would mean if you find yourself getting pics more than 3 times a year from Dominos, then maybe buy one of those (e.g. Arieta 909 or G3ferrari) It would work out cheaper. Make the dough, buy the toppings put them all in the freezer. No smell other than the same smell from cooked pizza.
For reference from uber eats near vancouver bc
Domino’s is pretty high for what it is. Not that it’s bad pizza, but…
Sending hugs my airborne cephalopod.
A domino’s employee told me to use coupon code 9193 at checkout, he said it’s the best one that all the employees use. Hope it helps y’all 🤷
Dominos is outrageously expensive if you don’t shop the deals.
When I was in college, I’d get dominos with my roommates when they had the 20$ special, which would be about 30$ after tip and delivery. The special had 2 medium pizzas, garlic knots, cinnamon twists, and soda.
After I moved back home, I learned my local dominos doesn’t always have that deal. I’d get something similar to what you got and I’d be upset that I got less food for a bit more…
Now what really pisses me off is the high end neopolitan place near me is cheaper on their dinner special days, where you can get 2 personal pizzas that taste so good I’d accept it as proof that god is real for about 25$ including tips and gas money.
You are the parent of your daughter… yet she dictates to you what she eats?
There’s your problem to begin with. You know what happened when I refused to eat what my mother made? Dealt with it… by not eating anything.
Yeah yeah here comes the downvotes from non-parents and parents who don’t know how to parent.
Also, thanks Biden. The economy is doing GRRRRRREAAT!
FJB.
Thats why I always go for a local shop, it ends up being the same price and better
What are you complaining about? That’s affordable! Don’t you make 180k? Obviously not! You might wanna read my take on the economy.

Pizza prices shot through the roof and I honestly can’t say they are better than throwing a frozen pizza with some mozzarella added into the oven for less than half the total price. I don’t think I have made photos, but I legit had “pizzas” where the outer 2-3 inches had no toppings, just tomato sauce burnt onto the dough.
this is central europe so frozen pizza is between 2-4 euros, 1 euro for mozzarella vs 8-10 euros for take out pizza.
it’s also a lesser serving, so healthier.
You’re using Domino’s wrong. You have to use the 2+ two topping medium pizza coupon for $6.99 each. They have it plastered on the website and the app.
That’s crazy… I can get more than 3 times as much food from Domino’s in a HCOL area for less money just by paying attention to the online deals and picking it up instead of delivery.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a pizza place sell small pizzas for a decent value. They price them to not sell. I’m guessing because they aren’t as predictable for the amount of volume you might need.
It wouldn’t have been cheaper to go for bigger (ignoring deals), but it wouldn’t have been much more and you’d have leftover pizza for lunch the next day.
