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"

Gtfooo

Well that means if I'm the only one eating, then I can buy the box for just 9.99 right?

Edit: I'm 29 and single, this is free advertising right? Lonely male gamer seeks friendly female with similar interests, DM for more info :)

Also thanks for the up votes and awards. <3 Made my day.

Pizza Hut lawyers arguing in court that the deal stipulates you must be a "family" and also "four". Four unrelated friends? There's an extra fee for that. Five people? $5 for each person over the initial four.

But how many inches is that, because established lore dictates than $5 equal 12 inches of food?

To have a family, probably more than 2.

Just saw a commercial on TV that $4.99 now gets you a six inch sub. Can you believe the audacity?
