$34.61 estimated for my random pizza. That's a hell of an expensive pizza.
- mod 9y agoI don't know where it gets ordered from, but a place in my town has pizzas that are about $30-$40 and they're worth it. For one, they're just amazing pizza, made by an amazing local entrepreneur, with a cool little pizza shop. For two, it's a meal out for 3 or 4 (they don't actually deliver), which isn't a bad price to eat out. If it's Dominos, then I feel your pain.
- rubyn00bie 9y agoIt says on the page all orders are fullfilled by dominos. So yeah that is a pretty ludicrous price for a dominos pizza.
- guidedlight 9y agoOn the website, it says Dominos.
- gerhardi 9y agoI don’t probably know WTF is a PIZZA (even a large one), that is worth it, at over $/€ 15-20... seems like we need a new big mac index! Is a $30+ pizza reality? Edit: it’s probably just the common salary & cost level difference here at the play, if in some places even a junior can make over 100k / year..
- reaperducer 9y agoThere's a place by me that makes a very good $32 pizza. It's also 40 inches across, so I have to borrow the neighbor's truck to go pick it up.
- Moter8 9y agoHonestly, I'm fine eating a nice deep-frozen (almost typed fried) pizza that costs 1,25€, Germany. I eat 2 or 3 per week. I have no clue why people would buy 20$ Pizzas :D
- CydeWeys 9y ago$31.21 including tip and delivery for me in Manhattan. I just priced a random pizza from dominos.com with three ingredients and that came out to $26.38 total, so it sounds like the roulette.pizza prices are a result of them adding a lot of toppings to a pizza (5-6?). You can also get a large pie from a place that's truly excellent (like Joe's Pizza) for less than $30, though I don't know if they deliver. It's definitely not worth it from a price perspective. The best deal at the moment, if ordered directly from Dominos, appears to be 2 Medium 1-Topping Pizzas, 16 Piece Parmesan Bread Bites, 8 Piece Cinnamon Twists, a 2 Liter of Coke, and a $1 donation to St. Jude for $19.99. roulette.pizza could use some better price-optimization mechanics, like fewer toppings (it's really diminishing returns past the first few), picking a pre-made pizza randomly, or even being able to randomly order whatever Domino's deal of the moment happens to be, like that St. Jude offer.
- danpalmer 9y agoUnsurprising for Dominos. In the UK their pizzas are consistently 2x the cost of a good takeaway pizza, or 3-4x the price of something equivalent to Dominos in quality. They only exist because of brand recognition.
- reaperducer 9y agoVery true, but Dominos is a lifesaver in Japan. In my experience, it's one of the few places where you can order a pizza online in English and be certain that it will actually be delivered.
- Symbiote 9y agoI think of it as an additional tax on people who can't make their own cheese on toast.
