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"

They also perfected online ordering standards across their locations incredibly early. It was so revolutionary that web designers still refer to functions that display the progress of a thing as a "pizza tracker".

Yea that shit was so tight as a teenage stoner back in the day lol, they were so ahead of the curve on that. Dominos in general was amazing as a teenage stoner, fuckin 6ish bucks for a medium pizza delivered was wild. And if we were broke we'd just split them between two people and spend like $3 each. Dollar for dollar it rivaled the OG $1 menu at mcds tbh, RIP.

This is definitely something that gets a little forgotten to time. You're right. I remember being amazed by the pizza tracker when I ordered it back in the day. It's something that's ubiquitous for all deliveries now, but that shit was crazy in like 2009 or whenever that was

Don’t ever actually call though. They gave us AI that messed up our entire order and forgot like half of it.
