Really it's just like everything else...It's something that people read and say "OH WOW, I GET IT!" without even paying attention to what it really means.

It's like the places where you get $10 free if they forget to give you your receipt. There are even usually some stipulations on that. I guess it's the whole "I know everything" thing that people go through, where they assume that anything that is said is 100% correct, when in all actuality that is not always the case.

Yo man, if you want a free pizza, you need to go to the grocery store and steal one, because that's how you get something free. However if you are not into theft, maybe you can call dominoes after you get your pizza and tell them it sucks and you want your money back. Fraud and deception may be more your type of crime if you don't have the balls for theft.

Or to put this another way, grow up you little punk!

For the most part Dominoes does a good job of getting the pizza on time, and for the most part they are okay when it comes to overall taste. It's no comparison to a brick oven or wood burining oven Chicago style or New York Style pie, but I don't set my self up to expect that when I order from them I know I get a pretty decent pizza a good price and if the driver hustle's and brings parmesan cheese (not peppers Frank you smuck I said cheese) I tip them a two, three, or four bucks.

Seriously kid, you try driving in traffic with 5 pies and let's see how you do - accident boy.

:) P.S. Get a job!

but it's really thru here in philippines. have tried one once and haven't tried it again because of consideration to the workers.

it happens when their branch is just 100 meters away from us and they delivered it 50 minutes. there promo then if they don't deliver in 30mins you get your next pizza free. and they did. but the funny thing is that the free pizza delivered is also late and they just offered a discount on the next one.

maybe this is why there are no more/less branches of dominos here.

I must say that you made a very good find. It seems like all companies that are using those marketing tools have catches to them.

A lot of places even stopped theirs. I remember things at local grocery stores where it was like "We will give you $5 if we fail to give you your receipt." Those lasted for a short period and then ended up becoming non-existant.

A few even did things like "If we fail to check the bottom of your basket we will give you" and whatever extra they wanted to put there. It ended up getting pulled off their "honor" list because they weren't checking baskets if there was nothing there, and people learned that too quick.

I think the issues with these things are not so much the people who are legitimately reporting things to get the rewards, but those who are doing it to cheat the system.

Take Blockbuster for example. If you are looking at one of their "hot movies" and they do not have it in stock you can get a rain check and rent it later for free. So people will travel there daily or have friends that work there that will tell them whether movies are in stock or not and give them the free certificates. To me that is cheating the system, because it's meant for the people who traveled there EXPECTING to find the movie and did not.

I think it was made illegal to pressure drivers to deliver a pizza within a certain time frame. Beuase if they give you a free pizza or give you a discount that is a loss to the company. Most people when they work feel bad or disloyal if their conduct causes a loss of profit to the company, thus causing them take extra measures to ensure that these types of things don't happen, of course managers would be even more intense with speed if the stakes were high. but like the slogan says "You Got 30 Minutes" so when they show up earlier than 30 minutes and ask you to pay for the pizza just say wtf I thought I had 30 minutes. lol

Theres Dominos over here and yes its bad to push those pizza delivery boy within a certain time frame, that i really agree. Each time i make an order, i would ask them, take your time, no rush here. So for that, i would make the order 20 mins early than the usual time.

Even if the pizza is delivered late, i wouldnt ask for the free one, in return i tell the boy that you did the job. I am satisfied.
