Also doesn't help that dominos is overpriced and tastes like cardboard.
Actually if you faff around with vouchers and buy an extra pizza and change the garlic bread to wedges oh and spend another £5 to make it into the deal, you can bring the price down to only slightly overpriced!
Dunno man, meateor is so good, just swap out the meatballs they keep falling off the slices.
Well that and they're on the BDS list which is why I stopped going.
BDS?
Boycott, Divest, Sanction. Its a long running movement to economically isolate Israel using targeted boycott campaigns against companies and organisations assisting the Israeli state.

This is why 3 letter acronyms are stupid. No one could have worked that out.
Isn't some degree of familiarity necessary for all initialisms? NIMBY doesn't give any hints about its meaning either.
Yes, that's the problem.
So is McDonald’s and their UK profit doubled in the last year, so sadly I don’t think BDS is having much of an effect there.
Let’s hope that changes. It feels helpless at times but every less $ they get the better.
Not at all surprised.
A Large, even with the DFS-style half-price offer, is £12.50 for a 13.5".
And they've apparently started charging £3.50 for delivery.
Meanwhile, my local pizza place is £14 for a 18".
No surprise.
I found lidl / aldi pizza much better
In the last few years, their prices have gone up hugely and the quality has gone down by just as much (and it was already over priced and shit).
Maybe reduce the price and up the quality? Naaah screw that, better double down on the enshittification and spend more on advertising. Oh and cut the salaries.
When I was over in New Zealand in 2018 I was shocked to find that Domino's didn't cost the earth. The prices in the UK are insane.
Overpriced and bad quality, thats why.
There's any amount of italian restaurants you can order pizza from these days and just go collect. There's even decent super market options now. All better than Dominos and Pizza hut for that matter (was shite the last one of those I got).
KFC has also been utter shite for years, these days I'd rather just cook more and have a better take away less often (popeyes or 5 guys).
Really sad thing is, as well as getting shitter, they also cost nearly as much as the more premium option now as well.
Never liked Domino's. I think it's the corn flour they dust the pizzas with.
Anyway, my local pizza place does a large 'Hossenfeffer' (spicy beef x2, spicy pork x2, pepperoni, spicy meatballs, spicy sausage, jalapenos, and fresh chillies) for cheaper than a Domino's large. No contest.
