Current Events > why the fuck is pizza hut so expensive now?

(+) Yeah! (+)

was gonna get six pizzas and some wings to eat with everyone but it came out to $144. what the fuck? there are local pizza joints that make phenomenal pizza and wings for much less. we wanted the stuffed crust pizza but i guess we're gonna send our business elsewhere.

Where the hell did you go?

Pizzas are not that expensive you just went somewhere weird.
---

if you ordered online, make sure you entered a coupon
if you order over the phone they usually do it for you so you wouldn't notice


otherwise, it's cause you're in a large city so fuck them
---

Guess you couldn't afford the taxes on the pizza.
---

I always order online and google promo codes first. I only order when there's a 40-50% off code available.

Wait pizza hut? Yeah you should talk to people over the phone because each pizza should be around 11-13 bucks, even large stuff crust specialty.

This. I was ordering off of Pizza Hut's website when I noticed they were charging me $50 for what should be a $30 order. I checked other places (Domino's, Little Caesar's, Papa John's) and decided to go with Domino's.

You have to go to their "deals" section first. It takes like 2 seconds but will cut the price of their pizza way down.

Nobody orders pizza hut at full price.

you must fail at knowing how to use coupons and deals to order pizzas

These. They purposely price their pizza high so you have to go through deals to get the real price. Capitalism at work because people continuously buy into it and keep them running.

lmao at the clowns thinking this is capitalism

capitalism is being able to go to dominos or a local chain for pizza that is less than half the cost.

an economic and political system in which a country's trade and industry are controlled by private owners for profit, rather than by the state

Sounds like Pizza Hut is making a profit off people who are unable to understand the concept of coupons and deals. This is exactly how capitalism works. If they didn't profit, they wouldn't do it.

You gotta look at their deals.

Dunno if its just my local one or all over, but online they're running a 7.99 large 2 toppings pizza deal if you order online. Wings and Pasta and a couple other things are $5 with a pizza purchase. I think its $2 extra for stuffed crust, so that's be $60 for the pizzas before tax/delivery (if you don't pick it up). Dunno how man wings you wanted, but assuming 6 orders of 8 that'd be another $30 before tax/delivery.

Wings are also cheaper on wednesdays at pizzahut, at least at the all the ones I've ordered from.

This. Even delivery 6 pizzas should only be like $80 tops. Carry out would be even less.
---

Not sure if it's been mentioned yet, but you should look for deals and coupons. Just a heads up.
---

Bait and switch. They (and dominos) got everybody in the mindset of pizza being ~$5, then changed it. Also, they jack up the prices for sides just to be mean.
---

They've always been expensive.

I wish it was that little in UK. Our prices seem to be massively higher :/
---

They have a $8 2-topping pizza coupon right now. Even with making it stuffed crust, it should come out to about $10/pizza with tax. You shouldn't be paying more than $80 rofl.

Wings should also fall under the $5 sides menu.

pizza hut's everywhere deal from online is large 2 topping for $8

what the fuck is wrong with OP

Actually it doesn't.

I literally pulled up my PH app to try it out. You can do multiple pizzas on it and, for my city, it comes out to $10.77/stuffed crust. iirc, WA has some of the highest sales tax in the nation, so I'm assuming it'll be cheaper for TC.

But he just wants to complain instead of actually finding a solution.

Even in the DC metro area with no deal or coupon a regular pizza from pizza hut is $16. How did you get to $144?

tbh i find their whole system where full price is exclusively for suckers to be so terrible

It's funny how TC is complaining about a businesses right to set prices how they want to when he's constantly spouting how a free market will solve everyone's problems.

stuffed crust super supremes are a lot more than 9

In his defense a lot of Pizza Hut's coupons/large pizza deals don't cover stuffed crust. The only time I order from there is when they do an actual half off regular price promotion so I can get stuffed crust, because outside of that the Hut is ass

yes they do

the stuffed crust just costs $2 extra

they also have an $11 anything large pizza deal which covers 100% of options. that one is admittedly not everywhere but the $8 large is.

like it is literally impossible to pay more than 11/pizza in most areas unless you deliberately try to do so

stuffed crust super supremes are marked up $5 before tax when going through that deal.

Dunno how many wings you got but they are basically a high profit making machine. I'm glad that dark meat tastes better AND is cheaper.

Indeed. Sounds like Pizza Hut made a tidy profit off you guys who don't understand the concept of coupons and deals.

Using the $8 coupon, a supreme stuffed crust comes out to $14/pizza.

But again, he didn't want a solution. He just wanted to bitch about PH because he wanted the most premium pizza they have and got all upset that it comes with a premium price.

I mean, with how much he's talked about "how much cheaper and better" the local place is, it's amazing that he even wanted to go to PH.

looks like it's up $2 to me

anyway i am apparently wrong about the $11 deal, which is surprising

not that i ever bother with stuffed crust
