If I get pizza, I get takeaway/carryout. Do you know how ecpensive the pizza is already? And yet, some dufus wants MORE THAN THAT when it arrives.

Think about it.

HELLO i delivered food for places who had delivery charges it was never taxed .........

Only steak n hoagie shop plus FF mozz sticks and other sides.
Dominoes doesn't charge the tax. The taxing authority does (your city or state).

Delivery is a service, in that instance.

We all pay enough in taxes w/o companies adding a tax on the portion of the bill that should not be taxed.
Hilarious! It is not a big deal. If you do not like the .20 tax then simple. Do not have a pizza delivered. This is completely controlable. Unless you beilieve that somehow quality of life will be reduced by the imposition of a tax on deliveres that will impinge on ones ability to afford a delivered pizza. My God! This post makes me laugh! Of all the crap in life to worry about.....

Default Solved the tax on delivery issue for you

Look, this isn't a "real" pizza. The crust is exceedingly firm on the bottom and doughy on top. But this pizza, more than any others, feels like it's really, really trying to be a real pizza, and it's largely succeeding. I'd rather eat this than Domino's or Papa Murphy's any day.

Completely wrong attitude !


If the OP is correct that delivery should not be taxed, Dominos has no business adding a non-existant tax and pocketing it.


Makes no difference if it is only a penny.


That is unethical and illegal.

Except it may not be "unethical and illegal" depending on which state the OP lives in.

This thread is hilarious! Of all the things to get upset about. LIFE IS SHORT. Enjoy what you can, and if the cost is too much then enjoy something cheaper.

Or, I suppose that if you really enjoy stirring the pot, you could report them to the taxing authorities/bureaucracy. But me, I'd rather just shrug my shoulders and enjoy a nice hot pizza that I can afford.

Get real....we're NOT in Syria, Sudan, etc
