Carrier T-mobile Tuesday's, what did you win this week?

I got my free medium pizza last week as well as this week. The app said the pizza was ready so I went in, the only person on staff said she was swamped and that I'd have to wait. Came back ten minutes later and she handed me a brownie too.

Wow.

To be honest this promotion was my first time actually trying the pizza from Dominos.

I guess that's it... first and last time 🙂

I don't know though, if you get $15 in lyft let's say + you win another $15 totaling at $30, that's a pretty good deal for people like me that commute it not far. I could use that to go to work and back few times.

Anyway, will see what's going to happen.

Still interesting how a pizza place can't handle customers. I feel like they wanted to promote themselves with Tmobile and now they'll get some customers out of this.

I think (not completely sure) that the way the credit works is its a "one and done" scenario. It's up to $15 towards one ride, if I understand correctly.

Not knocking it per se. But I had plans to pool my vudu credits and they expire too.

This is seeming more and more like a program that has stores and companies partnering with tmobile to try and drum up a consumer base (i.e. A cleverly disguised ad campaign) than an actual "uncarrier" move.

Well, T-Mobile has 'X' millions of customers. Each one wants a free pizza. Some have multiple lines and each of those want a free pizza.

Each pizza costs around $13 to make.

That's a serious onslaught for one day only. So they made a limit of 100 per store. Still some serious change and still unpredictable for each store owner as to how many will take advantage or not.

I believe they just didn't think the logistics of this through very well.

And sure it got some people in the stores. But I don't think they captured very many repeat customers.

Because of this promotion I set foot inside a Dominos for the first time in 14 years. Now that the promotion is effectively dead I have no plans to go back because 14 years later Dominos still is not better than Little Caesars and Pizza Hut.

It was a "meh" pizza. Not bad, not great. Little Caesars does a large Supreme pizza better for less than half of the cost Dominos would charge for a large.

Just my take.

I don't think pizza costs $13 to make otherwise there won't be any profit for them. I bet it costs them few bucks to make a pizza with two toppings. I mean its bread mostly.

OK, you're right. Not $13. I should have been more specific. $13 is about what they are charging without the promotion code.

They are probably charging T-Mobile a discount rate, but that's still a lot of money for T-Mobile and a lot of money Dominos has to pay for extra dough on ONE day. Not seven, one.

In any case I doubt T-Mobile realised that as many people would jump on this as they did.
 
I think the bigger problem was all the T-mobile customers complaining that they want the free pizza after the store hit the limit. I ordered but it was too late so I ordered the 3 topping large for 7.99. While waiting for the pizza there were a couple mad customers in the store and tmobile customers constantly calling them to complain its not working.

All i can say is some people get pretty mad about a medium 2 topping pizza.

We couldn't get the frosty ticket to work for Wendy's. The code that was supposed to populate was just blank. Ended up paying for the frosty. First frosty I ate in probably six years.

Looking back it's not a bad thing that the food went away. We generally eat really healthy since deciding to shed the weight we out on during college and free pizza and ice cream probably wasn't beneficial lol.
