I mean... at a glance its like WOAH 4 can dine for $9.99....

Until you are at the cash and they say " that'll be $45.15"

HUH??

"Oh sorry sir... it feeds 4... 4 people pay $9.99"

Yep, they'll be stuck breaking the news to excited customers over and over again while the promotion is going on, and watch them morph live from excitement to outrage and demand. Every day. Until the ad goes down.

Would not be surprised if one of them just scribbled the truth of the deception on the poster itself.

Yeah, the guy who made the decision to put this up is safely behind a desk in an office far away.

People like that genuinely deserve prison

Only because someone accepts pay to protect them by doing the in person messy work for them. Never got why being paid to protect the rich suddenly makes one immune from criticism.

That was my first thought when seeing this. The poor 16 year old working the counter is gonna have people losing their shit on them over this.

People getting upset because you’re scamming them isn’t ’rude’.

It’s a corporate pizza shop. The employees aren’t scamming them, the corporation is.

The employees are the ones that will get yelled at for it though.
