I usually order online since there are more deals. Plus, I earn free pizza that way.

Online, the less human contact the better.

Papa johns has a coupon that every time Hawks win you enter 50hawks in Georgia and its 50% off whole order. I'll get two pizzas for 12$ and last me 3 days. It's great.


They also have one for when the braves score 6 runs. 50braves for you Atlanta people. Even though you may get it a total of like 12 times this year.


Dominos is my favorite take out but their deals aren't as good and I have a papa johns literally .005 miles from my house. Dominos does have a nice 7.99 large 3 topping for carry out mon-thur that is nice.

Try grubhub if you have any options available in your area. Works great for me.

You know, I actually thought to myself right before I posted the thread, "why the frick are you posting this? who the frick cares? You're a fricking idiot. (Literal )"



However, it has turned out better than it had any right to. And based on the responses it appears the majority order online, though a fair number still call it in like myself. I was also unaware of the crazy online coupons, so I think I'll have to give online a go the next time I'm ordering out.

2 pizzas somehow last you 3 days? Impressive. I haven't been to Dominos in awhile, but when I did they weren't that good.

I order online from hotels, because it is easier than calling one store only to find out they don't know which location delivers to me.

From home, I usually just call. The phone call is quicker than going through the selection menus. (Some of us order different pizzas each time).

2 large pizzas? Yeah. 2 slices for dinner that night. Maybe 3. 1-2 for breakfast. Then just 2-3 whenever I want more.

Damn, only 2 slices for dinner. I admire your ability to resist temptation. I easily devoured a large thin crust from Imo's the other night. Some Chicago pizza will last me a couple days if I'm lucky.

I've earned several free pizzas from Papa John's, so I usually order online from them. I've gotten more wrong orders calling on phone than ordering online.

Online. They usually have online deals and it's way more convenient for me.



And I like the option to re-order previous orders

If I order from somewhere with online ordering, I do that. It's easier to check the current deals they have that way.

Yeah, online is the superior option these days.

The Domino's app has a tracker that shows you what stage your order is in. It tells you when they start the initial prep, when it's in the oven, when they're putting on the final touches, and when its in the car on the way. The process is dummy-proof.

You order on the phone you don't know what they're up to.

That Domino's app is frighteningly easy to use. You can re-order a past order in ~15 seconds.



Same here, then pick it up myself (3 mins away).

And the idiots at Pizza Hut (slightly closer) won't accept online payment for pick up. I hate going in to pay with credit card, then facing the dilemma/guilt of whether to add something on the gratuity line when the guy moves it 3 feet and hands it to me. Categorically rules them out for me, no matter what the promotion is.

I don't tip when I'm picking up. Probably the only time I don't leave a tip (I usually tip pretty liberally).
