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.
I’m not a huge pizza person but paid $30 for a 9 inch from a pizzeria in Chicago a couple of months ago. It was tasty so I didn’t mind but it did seem quite a bit higher than the last time I had pizza.
I’d never give Domino’s that much for a pizza though, from what I recall their offerings are pretty subpar.
The local pizza place, a restaurant, has pizza Wednesdays. Every 11" pizza for 7 Euro and you have to pick it up, so you don’t have to tip anyone. That’s the only time I order pizza.
Inches and Euro? UK?
No, I just felt there were more Americans in this thread and I didn’t want to upset them, so I converted 28cm into 11 inches. But I didn’t feel that converting the price would make sense, because of cost of living, so I left it in Euro.
Ah. Makes sense. Didn’t want to scare them with units of liberté.
I think the UK still uses pounds for money. Pizza is one of those weird things that is frequently measured in inches even in otherwise metric nations.
Huh. In former land of victorious socialism(or at least in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus) common pizza sizes are 25/26, 30 and 40 centimeters.
