Last time you had Domino's Pizza?

I hate take out places like Papa Johns or Papa Murphys. I just dont have time or energy to drive some place, wait, pay, pick up, drive home, pre-heat oven, wait 30-40 minutes, cool down, cut and then eat.

I rather order on my app or phone ahead of time and have it delivered. The Dominoes app is pretty good with updates and now you get points towards free pizza. I havent used it yet, but another plus.

Domino's Pizza tasted good 30 years ago. Now, not so much.

Changing taste buds?

Starting around 1986, I could down entire medium pizzas with ease if I was super hungry. Unfortunately, I continued that nasty habit for years afterwards. Now, I couldn't even do it if I tried.

I dont eat the food

The other night I was at my friend's house and I ordered a Dominoes pizza online and I wanted it modified just a little bit (it was when the Druff show was on live). Right after the order was placed, I got an offer mailed of a free medium 2 topping pizza for the next week, nice. So then the pizza came to her house and as kinda expected, they got the order wrong. I called the manager and nicely explained that there was an error, I was not mad and maybe why could show some love for the next time I order? He said Yep and emailed me a free whole pizza coupon for the future. So TWO free pizza in the future. I dont have a jew wallet, but even Druff would approve of this deal.

The first coupon that came...

Anyone remember this ad campaign?

https://youtu.be/AH5R56jILag

Their pizza used to be legit awful; this ad prompted me to try it again, and it was better than I remembered.

I think I told this story before on radio, or perhaps on the forum in the past, but since this is about Domino's, I'll tell it again here.

In the '90s Domino's had a fairly good pizza called the "garlic crust pizza", which is exactly as it sounds. This was way better than their standard pizza at the time. I was ordering it about once per week. I would always come and pick it up on the way home from work. The manager got to know me -- not just by name and face, but by voice. If I called and he answered, he knew my order and asked if I wanted it again, and I said yes.

They were pretty good about not screwing up, so my transactions were very standard. I didn't ever complain, never asked for money back, and didn't even use coupons.

I did this for about 2 years.

One day the laundry machines broke in my apartment building. It was going to be a week until it was fixed, so I needed to go to a laundromat for the first time in years.

I had remembered a laundromat next door to that Domino's, so I went there. The machines were more expensive than I thought, so I ran out of quarters. I whipped out my wallet, and saw I only had a $10 bill, and the change machine only took $1 and $5 bills. Ugh.

Then I thought, "Oh, I'll just go into the Domino's and ask them to break this $10 into two $5 bills!" Note that I was NOT asking for quarters at the Domino's.

I walked into the Domino's. I was happy to see the manager there and he greeted me. There was no one up front except for him, and no customers in there.

I asked him to break my $10 into two $5s, and explained why.

"Can't do it," he replied.

"You don't have any $5 bills?", I asked.

"No, we have plenty," he replied. "But look at that sign. Absolutely no change for the laundromat."

Indeed there was such a sign, but obviously that was aimed at laundromat customers who use Domino's for change without ever buying anything.

"Oh, I understand why you have that sign, but I'm a regular customer and you know me. I've spent a lot of money here over the past two years," I replied.

"Yes, I know that, and we really appreciate your business. But rules are rules. If I do it for you, I have to do it for everyone," he said.

:wtf2

"No, you don't have to do it for everyone! There's not even any customers here! You are the manager and can choose to do this for a regular customer!"

He refused. I said that if I walk out without those two $5 bills, I'm never coming back. He said, "That's your choice."

So I walked out and never came back to that Domino's, and I contacted ownership and let them know why.



If my business isn't appreciated, I don't want them having my Jew money.

One topping pizza is such a waste, must load up that pie with most all toppings, except pepperoni, pass.

It amazes me how dummies like that who don't understand discretion and customer service got to be managers in the first place.

Yeah, the manager blew it there, could have cut Druff a break.

Bump- I have not have a Dominos Pizza in a long time. Anyone else still go there?

Nope; Little Caesars is equally bad, but cheaper.

Had a slice at a recent birthday party. Average for chain pizza.

A benefit for bottomset being a deadbeat father is avoiding the birthdays, truly an awful waste of half a day.

You are gonna drive past a Dominos and fast food hamburgers post-kids and just shake your head over the ruckus of birthday saturdays.

The trick is to laugh in real time while at the Dominos counter. Somehow I was self aware enough to appreciate how ridiculous it all was.

Smile - coal fired pizzas will someday be yours

I stopped eating Dominos like most people who arent brain dead fat fucks with when I was 12 or so

There is an old story similar to this about a guy that goes into a bank and asks for his parking to be validated. They refuse because he didn’t transact any business in the bank that day. The next day he returns to the bank and withdraws all of his money….millions of dollars.

I would have given you the change Druff

I agree rules don’t apply equally in these situations

Bump.

I haven’t had Dominoes Pizza in awhile, but it still seems like Tier 3 level pizza and one of my last go to choices.

They had a deal for $6.99 for a two topping medium but if you bought 2 one of them would be upsized, the place is close to a bar I was at anyhow so I got that deal. Lost Pint Yellow Rose IPA is legit great.

Dominos is not legit great…it was ok…whole deal was $14…kids liked it.

If it was full price, I’d have felt ripped off.
