A Domino's delivery guy mistakenly left a receipt in my mailbox.
Looked through the details.
Wow!!, Domino's Pizza charges $3 (plus taxes) for home delivery.

Remember years ago, It used to be free home deiivery esp those promo within 30 mins delivery or the pizza order is free.
I was happy camper those days.

LIVE LONG and suffer ...

I think they all, if not most charge for delivery these days.
Its worth it to pay specially when its bitter cold winter and not feel like going out to puckup

Or we try to make at home when possible

Pizza prices have also come WAY down since then, so you are paying far less now than you were back then. I know this for a fact because I remember getting Domino's back in the mid 90's, around 1994. The local Domino's had a special on Monday's for a large pepperoni pizza for $10.99 and it was a BIG deal, everyone in town bought it. The regular price for their large specialty pizzas was $17.99. They didn't have as many coupons then as now.

Today, Domino's often has Large 2 topping pizzas for $7.99 on sale, and you can regularly find them for $10.99 (same price as back then). Pizza is one thing that has not followed inflation at all. It becomes cheaper every year.

But pizza sizes have gotten smaller...
today's large is yesterday's medium.

Domino's has always been 10/12/14 inch. I don't recall it being smaller. Now, less toppings, I could see that. I remember there being more cheese back then.

So long as the delivery charge goes mostly to the drivers to cover their expenses I don't see an issue with the charge.

I like credit unions and Honda Civics.

If you are paying regular price for pizzas, you shouldn't be on RFD.

The place I go has a 'walk-in' special, its like a discount if you don't deliver. However their order taking sucks, she won't let me call ahead for a pick-up. Like what is the **** difference, if I walk over there make the order and wait. Or I phone ahead and walk over there. The outcome is the same, I pick up the pizza and walk home.

I have to admit I'm perplexed at the "wow" comment in the OP about a $3 delivery fee for pizza. I don't get the shock at there being a delivery fee, considering what Skip The Dishes and similar apps charge for food delivery.

So should you still tip the driver if there is a delivery charge or does that cover it?

Who pays full price for Dominos? Always buy on 50% off or BOGO. $3.5 is rich for delivery, especially if you tip on top its like $5.
