As I was preparing supper this evening, I saw out the kitchen window the pizza delivery person leaving from my neighbor's house. This got me to thinking about whether I had ever had pizza delivered to my house. So I asked my husband if we had pizza delivered and he said no he couldn't remember ever doing it either. When we eat pizza in, we always go pick it up.
So, do you have pizza delivered or pick it up from the restaurant? If delivery, why do you choose to have it delivered?

Hi caver1.It is more convenient for me to have the pizza delivered.But it could have a disadvantage though..like getting your pizza cold and you have to reheat it.
Thanks and Have a happy weekend!

Yes,caver1.The pizza was already cold when they delivered it..they also use insulated bags so my guess is that the one delivered to me was not freshly made.

When ever I order pizza it is usually because I have been too busy to cook dinner, or because I am stressed out and need a little break so it is a treat. So I have it delivered, having to get in the car to drive to pick it up, would defeat my purpose of taking some stress off of myself. If we are having pizza because we are having company then we might go pick it up to save a few buck. But mostly for me pizza represents giving myself a little break.

We live in a smaller area which only had one major pizza place. They don't really offer delivery unless it's a big holiday to have pizza, or a few nights a week threw the summer they will offer it. To get them to deliver you gotta order half the menu to meet there min. delivery fee, so we usually go pick it up when we order it.

we call the pizza place and order the pie 30 minutes before we get there and eat it there, that way you dont wait 25 minutes, if you want to go get the appitizer then go and sit and wait. pizza is always cold when we get it delivered so we order ahead and eat it there. we used to live in the boonies of outside palm beach before the ashphalt roads were put in and we couldnt get one delivered , we had to meet them i/2 way there at a strip mall parking lot. sometimes we had to get it delivered because the party was going on and we didnt want anyone driving to get it. ah the good ole days.

We've never had pizza delivered here since we live way out in the country. When I worked in town, I did have pizza delivered to my office a few times. Although, right now, I work at a pizza place. So if I wanted to have pizza, all I would have to do is order it and pick it up. Besides, we don't get our discount for delivery anymore, so it's cheaper to order it for carryout.

Wow, to never have had a pizza delivered to your house...that really seems extreme to me. But, I've probably had pizza delivered to my residence enough times for the both of us. Shoot, just the times we had pizza delivered in college is probably enough to cover both of us. Having it delivered is just a conveinence. It allows us to have just a little more time to do whatever without having to think about if it's time to go and pick up the pizza.

if it is dominos it is deliveried usually because I am home with the kids and it is easier to have them come then pack up the kids. The pick up is 90% of the time usually it is wrapped around coming home, picking up something else. Because of lent we eat cheese pizza on fridays for 8 weeks, I pick it up on the way home.

I always get it delivered when I order pizza. When I was still living in my hometown we would have it delivered unless we ordered from Little Ceasars then we would pick it up cause they stopped delivering.

we mostly have it delivered. It takes about 30-45 minutes and we really don't do it too much. why delivery? i guess cause it is easier than going out to get it. the place we like the best has horrible parking.

as the pizza delivery is a free service provided by the restaurant i prefer home delivery more since it saves lot of time besides the delivery person fails to deliver the pizza in the stipulated time we in for a party.

i mostly have it delivered though sometimes it is better to pick it up cause it is cheaper to pick up than having it delivered. but when i can't go out i have no choice than to have it delivered which is the main purpose of delivery to spare us the trouble to go out.

We pretty much only order pizza from places that will deliver to us and we hardly ever go pick it up. For us, that's part of the beauty of ordering pizza - being able to sit on our butts at home and have someone bring the food to us. Of course, we love pizza and if for some reason, no places delivered to us, then we would go pick it up. However, it's great to just be lazy sometimes and have food delivered!

We always dine in on pizza parlors because it is far in our place that they don't have deliveries on that area. So if we were just near, i would have ordered to them on a daily basis because I'm an avid fan for Pizza.
I don't mind if i get to eat Pizza once a month now since we do have to spend our money wisely to buy things more important for us. For me, it would still be a blessing to eat more than that for a month, but sacrificially, we have to discipline ourselves too because we wanted to buy a lot of things before this year ends. Happy MyLotting!

Even i really dont remember that i have ever odered a pizza at home, infact i know and remember i have always been to near by centers to eat them. even till the time yet here till my place there is no delivery for pizaas yet, so there is no question of odering it, i would be glad if i get to order a pizza because sometimes it really feels bore to go out and get a pizza from a long distance it is good to order it if you are too lazed out and feeling like to go out but want to have a pizza

I wanted to have a pizza delivery more than picking it up from the restaurant. It saves time, money and petrol.
