They have really gone down hill the past decade. Now their promotions just reek of desperate measures to restablish a customer fan base.

$5.55 for a large pizza? Goodbye!

Pizza Hut sucks but Little Ceasars and Hungry Howies do pretty well selling pizzas at that price. I'm sure they are going after more of that market share

if this is in fact the case, they will have to revamp their entire company top to bottom because of the amount of overhead they have compared to the other two.

It's their 55th anniversary, so they're doing pizzas for 5.55, and it's only for a short amount of time.

I never order from the Hut in Baton Rouge but I am in Gulf Shore and the $5.95 carry out price point got me in their door. The pizza was much better than Little Ceasars in BR and satisfied my 2 bottomless pit kids.
There were plenty of people in there eating in and I noticed the 3 other people in front of me picking up orders that had maybe 1 or 2 pizzas with no less than a charge of $20.

Couldn't tell ya. It's been at least three since I've eaten at one. No need to.

I haven't eaten at any fast food pizza joint in probably 5 years, but I always enjoyed Pizza Hut the best growing up. Sucks if they really have hit the toilet.

who the hell eats Pizza Hut?

here by us is the local italian eatery craze and we have about 3-4 within 3 miles.

i can get a XL NY style pizza that feeds 3 people for $12. we usually have leftovers and its 10x better than pizza hut

the only time we get a chain is if we have kids over and then ill just run to cicis or little ceasers and grab a $5 pizza and let them sort it out.

pizza hut is garbage

I haven't eaten at Pizza Hut since the guy who had all the BR franchises didn't pay his bills and got shut the hell down. The Pizza Hut that reopened near me doesn't deliver. If I'm going to drive to get a pizza, it sure as hell isn't going to be to go get Pizza Hut.

frick 'em.

Whenever I hear pizza hut reminds me of a time in high school a bunch of us went for the buffet after church. We got there around 1230 and were told they were out of dough. Dough. I said dough.

But we could have all the spagetti and salad we wanted, for the same price

Your pizza place is cheap! An XL pizza in Alpharetta is like 25 bucks, then again it is worth that for a mellow mushroom pizza.
