    Default Price gouging anyone?

    Today I go to order a pizza from Mrs.Bs for the family and they inform me its going to be 47.50 plus delivery.

    Didnt know a Hawaiin pizza (cheese,pineapple,ham) and a pepperoni and cheese was worth that. Is it me or is this an outrageous price?

    Go to Pino's. Awesome Pizza. Cheese and Peperoni 9.99 or cheese and one item 9.99. 1.00 each additional item. Even tried that new Primetime Pizza in the west end and it is awesome.

    Service Grill..................tried it and I'm hooked.
    I wasn't aware that God himself was now making pizza at Mrs. Bs. That would still be too much money for one, quality there doesn't seem to be as good as it was either.

    However...........could there have been some miscommunication? Did they think you were ordering multiple pizzas? Hey, I'm just saying it's always a possibility.
    People who use the internet to stalk or creep are generally useless, boring people. REALLY!!

    I think when you order a Hawaiian there, they actually have one shipped from Hawaii via expressmail. $40-some odd bucks. That's called a steal.

    I buy a Large half pepperoni, half Hawaiian there every couple weeks... It costs me about $18. They must have mis-heard your order.

    I bought a large tonight at Mrs. B's(East Street store) with double sausage, green peppers and mushrooms. It was 23.00. I had not tried one there for sometime and was dissapointed they have changed the sausage. It used to be so so good(Pino's I think it used to be). Why do people play with a good thing?

    I wouldnt have posted this so hastily if that were the case. I repeated it to her and asked her how she came to this conclusion.

    What was her reasoning? That is ridiculous!

    You didn't get it did you?!?! I could feed my family of 6 on that for a week if I had to.
