What happened to pizza shops?

August 08, 2023 01:22AM
I remember back in 2017 I was doing pizza shops for several different companies (IPSOS & Sinclair). RBG had some pizza shops recently, but I haven't even seen those for the past 2 months. Who is shopping pizza restaurants?

The eclectic pizza place is shopped. I've done it a couple of times. Fairly easy but pretty restrictive in ordering so if you're picky it may not be for you.

The bookit fast food pan pizza place is shopped.

The Pizza Pizza! fast food place is also shopped.

Since we aren't talking about any particular establishment, do you mind giving me a hint of where to go?

The RBG are still there, but few and far between, I see quite a few in rural areas that don't get picked up.

It appears that the RBG locations that were shopped several months ago near me are all (3) closing.

I wonder if it was a result of the shops.

Yep. I happen to really like that Big New Yorker Pizza. I think it was June, I made $105 doing 3 of them in South Texas. I gave one of the pizzas away after taking a slice. I threw away the last 2 slices of the other two about 4 days later. I had just re-discovered an XBOX game and had a pizza/gaming fest over those few days.

Happy Times!

I can't buy pre-made pizza anymore. I take Aldi flatbread add a spicy marinara sauce, grated mozzarella, pepperoni, freshly sliced tomatoes/mushrooms/onions/peppers and bake on a stone. When it comes out of the oven I drizzle a little Wegman's Spicy Tomato Oil and add black olives. Any other pizza is unacceptable to me. smiling smiley

I'm doing one of those tomorrow. Have an easy gas station in the area anyway.

OP, I used to do the orange logo pizza place with Sinclair every month for years. I moved out of the area 2 years ago, but still have several zip codes in my profile and never see them anymore.

Like weatherman said, HSBrands has some that are the pizza slices you typically see in a mall food court.

That's cooking. That's the polar opposite of pizza.

I completed my first pizza shop in 2003; it was at Papa Johns. I was permitted to order "the works" and was paid $20. By 2007, though, the requirement was down to one or two toppings with a meager fee. Shoppers willing to toil for a pittance had destroyed that opportunity.

In 2007, I was paid $20+ a sandwich to take one pic of an eatery. Today, I saw an offer of $5+ a sandwich to snap 4 or 5 pics; I forget the number as I had zero interest.

@HonnyBrown,

"That's cooking"? (technically you BAKE a pizza) But I guess reaching into the refrigerator, grabbing a cold bottle of craft beer, then removing the cap you'd consider as "brewing"? Wow! LOL smiling smiley
