4 DOLLARS!?!??!??!?!? HOW IN GODS NAME DOES A SINGLE SLICE OF PIZZA AND A CUP OF FIZZ COST 4 DOLLARS FIZZ IS SO CHEAP WHEN BOUGHT IN BULK AS SYRUP IT’S PRACTICALLY FREE SO YOU’RE PAYING NEARLY 4 DOLLARS FOR A SINGLE SLICE OF PIZZA NO I CANNOT COMPREHEND THAT THAT’S ABSURD THAT SHOULD COST LIKE A DOLLAR FIFTY TWO DOLLARS TOPS

Not to worry for you see, the ‘single slice of pizza’ you mention is actually a Mega Slice, which is probably at least 3 times bigger than a regular slice.
- Phuntis ( @phuntis@sopuli.xyz ) English6•7 months ago
I can see the angle and that’s only like 2 times the size of a normal slice and it also looks pretty short compared to the cup and I know american cups are huge but that’s in height not width so comparing it to that that slice looks maybe slightly above average to me nowhere near $4 worth also I just noticed it’s only a medium fizz so it can probably be compared to a large here yeah that pizzas nowhere near as big as you say
Nah, the scale’s weird the pizza at these places is actually usually pretty huge

I guess that’s better then but it’s still pretty pricy pizza here is £25 for a large dominos but there’s always some offer for half off so the real price is like £12.50 and that’s ten slices so that’s £3.75 for 3 slices which sort of lines up with that being $4.65 but at the same time our pizzas supposed to be way more expensive than in the US cause your large is apparently $10 and our real price of £12.50 is $15 so I’dve expected it to be like $2.50 then if it’s the size of 3 slices and I don’t know about if it still does in the US but dominos used to do free delivery so considering you’re at the place to buy it and they don’t have to deliver it to you maybe even knock that down to $2 which sort of brings it back to my original gut feeling of what it should cost of $1.50/$2.00 at the upper side but still
Dominos here hasn’t ever done free delivery AFAIK.
A $12 pizza delivered is gonna be like $20 after tip and tax

You can buy the whole pizza in 12 slices for $17 USD, but the slices are smaller, the mega slice in question is legitimately almost a quarter of the pizza, and is priced as an impulse item. I had no problem going by Casey’s on my way into work, buying this plus an extra slice for like 9 dollars and basically eating a half a pizza and getting enough soda for half the day. It isn’t a bad deal actually, and I had QUITE the appetite.

I’m assuming we’re referencing the absurd price of it? I wouldn’t be caught dead paying that much for a slice of pizza and a drink.
- rothaine ( @rothaine@beehaw.org ) English4•7 months ago
Where do you live that this would be cheaper? 🤔
- Navarian ( @Navarian@lemm.ee ) 3•7 months ago
I live in Wales, lil’ country next to England.
For some extra context — there is a little family run café down the road from me, that will give you a full English Breakfast for very close to that price.
- rothaine ( @rothaine@beehaw.org ) English2•7 months ago
Wow, that’s wild to me. I looked at this and thought “not a bad deal, though why would I want soda at breakfast”. A “full breakfast” (not sure what goes into the English part), but something like eggs, sausage, bacon, home fries, and pancakes, would be like $12. Coffee another $2.50.

Casey’s Pizza is actually bomb though
- NoStressyJessie ( @NoStressyJessie@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) English1•7 months ago
The only reason I miss the midwest.
I wake up some mornings craving a slice of this pizza, but god help you if you go for lunch when they are running some god awful pizza and don’t label it.
Sure, you thought it looked like sausage, but instead you get bacon cheeseburger on a ketchup mustard sauce with pickles hidden under a pound of cheese, hope you don’t have sensory issues!

What can’t they comprehend? A cheap, high calorie breakfast is on-par with our reputation.
What I can’t comprehend is a breakfast pizza. It’s not really any different than a breakfast burrito except that it is messier. Just go for the burrito.

Breakfast pizza is fucking awesome. Try it.
