Any idea why the reumbursement limit is $28 for a $14 pizza when you can only order one pizza?

You are allowed to order delivery if you're in their delivery area, so I would guess that's to cover the delivery fee and tip.

Pizza Hut is my choice for pizza, but only $10 pay for a shop that must be done in the evening (likely requiring a special trip at that time of day) for a pizza that can only be pepperoni, and requires five photos? They got to be joking!

It is easy to order from Pizza Hut website and then go pick up the pizza at a Hut 3 minutes from my home, but I would rather have pizza with toppings that I can actually eat. I will buy it on my own dime with no flipping half the pizza upside down, letting it cool down while I manipulate it for the photos, or filling out the report, thank you.

I scheduled one, and considering that the location is literally 5 minutes away and that we usually get pizza once/week, it seemed like a pretty good deal. I'll have to see when the time comes....

I learn something new every day, but not everyday!
I've learned to never trust spell-check or my phone's auto-fill feature.

Where I am, the fee's up to $45 plus reimbursement. And it's a town I'll be going through on my way home, so maybe I'll try it.

The shop is easy enough. The time "constraint" is what sucks the most about the job. Is the Big New Yorker pizza made different after 5PM than it would be at 1PM? There really isn't much about the timing or service, but it's more about how many pepperonis are on the pizza, if they are evenly distributed, if the pizza is sliced all the way thru, and how it was baked. If they allowed earlier times than a little window from 5-8:30, it would make it easier to do.

The pizza is fine. It's not spectacular and it's not terrible. I would never buy this on my own dime. I'll take a larger pepp pizza from costco for less money.

While I agree that the time constraint is a big negative since that requires a solo trip exclusively for one shop, you assume that everybody likes pepperoni. The ordering restriction is the biggest negative for me. Also, not everybody has or can justify paying for a Costco membership.

I have not seen chain pizza shops where I can order what I like. I do not eat pepperoni and this job clearly mentioned not to take it if you do not like or eat pepperoni. I used to do the Papa Johns shops and remember the poor choice of toppings. I seem to remember I could only get peppers if I ordered them with a specific other topping. I never could order my preference. Often you are only allowed one or two toppings from a very short list.
I did hear a rumor a few months ago that Costco is asking for membership at the food court but I have never been asked to prove I am a member. To get their best value of all with very edible pizza at costco just walk up to an outdoor Costco food court (in warmer states) or inside you can usually get inside by telling them you are going to the pharmacy even if not a member.

I’ve done a number of these so far — easy to order in the app 15-20 min earl and grab the pizza when passing through. 5 pics are super easy… They are now starting to get bonused which is nice. They seem to have them on a rolling schedule rather than dropping all the locations at once… think of the initials of a deceased judicial figure that caused drama when they were replaced in the last few years..
