This Is Not a Drill: The Domino's Carryout Deal You'll Regret Missing
You never know where you'll be when the craving for pizza hits. What you can control is who you trust to satisfy that fateful hunger. And this week, Domino's is stepping up with a deal that pretty much makes the choice a no-brainer.
From June 2 through June 8, the fan-favorite pizza chain is kicking off the month with a truly irresistible carryout deal: take home any large two-topping pizza for just $6.99. You read that correctly — a 14-inch, two-topping pie for half the usual price, straight to your dinner table. The only catch? You have to go pick it up yourself.
🍳 🍳In a world where delivery apps have turned human interaction into a novelty, there's something refreshingly old-school about walking into a store and picking up your own order. It's a small nod to the pre-app era, and honestly, kind of a good excuse to get out of the house for a change.
"Summer is unofficially here, and Domino's is celebrating by doing what we do best: offering delicious pizza at a great value," Kate Trumbull said, Domino's executive vice president – chief marketing officer. "Whether you're hosting a graduation party, throwing a summer gathering with friends or watching the final basketball games, Domino's has your meal plans covered. It's the perfect time to take advantage of this deal!"With your choice of Hand Tossed, Crunchy Thin or New York Style crust, plus the option to upgrade to Parmesan Stuffed Crust for just $3 more, there's really no reason to pass up this summer steal. And with the week already flying by, there's even less time to grab two large two-topping pizzas for the price of one.
Snag this deal for an easy late-night dinner, work function, or family and friends get-together. It's a great way to save some money or simply get more bang for your buck. Deals like this don't stick around for long, so if you ask us, it's pizza parties all around while the offer's still hot.This Is Not a Drill: The Domino's Carryout Deal You'll Regret Missing first appeared on Parade on Jun 3, 2025

As cities expand and more people work longer hours or commute farther, demand for quick and accessible meals has grown sharply. Fast food restaurants, both global and local, are meeting this need by offering affordable, on-the-go options. Urban consumers are increasingly seeking convenience over traditional meal preparation. Moreover, dual-income households have surged, boosting the preference for dine-out or home-delivered fast food. With city populations expected to keep rising, particularly in nations such as India, China, and Indonesia, the quick service industry is slated for further expansion. Urbanization is one of the region's dominant megatrends. At present, 54% of the world's urban population, or more than 2.2 billion individuals, live in Asia.

Youth from the Asia-Pacific Region account for 60 percent of the globe's youth at 750 million young individuals from the ages 15 to 24 years old. The cosmopolitan, techno-savvy generation is closely aligned with Western culture, internet trends, and cell phone accessibility. Fast foods are cashing in on that by introducing cell phone app campaigns, short-order menus, and influencer promotional campaigns. The ease of ordering online, supported by focused digital advertising and social media activity, has promoted higher trial and repeat consumption among Gen Z and millennials. As youth drive contemporary eating habits and welcome international flavors, fast food keeps expanding its cultural stronghold in the Fast Food Market Challenges Growing Health Consciousness and Demand for Healthy AlternativesAs the awareness of obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases increases, consumers in Asia-Pacific are increasingly shifting towards healthier diets. Governments and health agencies are advocating nutritional literacy and pushing for lower consumption of high-fat, high-sugar foods - putting fast food in the spotlight. The image of fast food as unhealthy is deterring some consumers, particularly middle-aged consumers and parents. This change is compelling brands to rework menus, cut portion sizes, and add healthier alternatives such as salads, grilled foods, and low-calorie items. But taste, price, and health balance continues to be a challenge for most fast food chains that want to keep customers while enhancing nutritional Chain Disruptions and Increasing Operating CostsThe fast food sector depends significantly on effective logistics and availability of a consistent supply of ingredients such as poultry, dairy, wheat, and seafood. Disruptions created by geopolitical tensions, fuel price fluctuations, and climate change are now impacting raw material prices and availability. Inflation in some Asia-Pacific economies has also raised input and labor costs. These are constricting profit margins, particularly for smaller or local chains. Fast food companies are now having to invest in supply chain resilience, local sourcing, and cost-reduction initiatives, which can be costly and complicated - particularly in markets with different infrastructure and regulatory Fast Food Full-Service Restaurants MarketFull-service restaurants in Asia-Pacific fast food are increasing their following, particularly among customers looking for a mix of convenience and eat-in features. They have a wide range of menu offerings, table seating, and a less hurried environment than quick-service models. Full-service brands such as Pizza Hut and family-oriented Asian chains are increasing their market presence in city centers and shopping malls. Japanese, South Korean, and Chinese consumers appreciate dining out as a social experience and thus full-service models are favorite among families and groups. Moreover, increasing middle-class incomes and urbanization are the primary drivers of this segment's Fast Food Quick-Service Restaurants MarketQuick-service restaurants (QSR) form the backbone of the Asia-Pacific fast food market as they are sustained by the demand for affordable, quick, and convenient food among consumers. Players such as McDonald's, Burger King, and homegrown operators such as Lotteria are growing fast across major urban markets in economies such as China, India, and Indonesia. QSRs also provide various meal options, such as burgers and fries, rice bowls, and wraps, that fit regional tastes. Growing use of mobile apps for ordering, collaborations with food-delivery platforms like Grab and Zomato, and the emergence of cloud kitchens are also helping QSRs boost market penetration and expansion.

James Leprino, ‘Willy Wonka of Cheese' Who Revolutionized Pizza, Dies at 87
James Leprino, who transformed his family's small Italian grocery store in Denver into a mozzarella empire, producing 85 percent of the cheese for pizzas in the United States as the primary supplier for chains like Domino's, Papa Johns and Pizza Hut, died on June 19. He was 87. Mr. Leprino's death, which has not been widely reported, was announced in a statement from the Leprino Foods Company in Colorado. It did not say where he died or give a cause. Called 'the Willy Wonka of cheese' by Forbes magazine, Mr. Leprino owned a company that industrialized the production and sale of mozzarella, making him a seminal figure in the piping-hot rise of pizza on the American food pyramid, as well as a billionaire twice over. In accelerating the exportation of pizza from neighborhood pizzerias to delivery chains and frozen-food aisles, Mr. Leprino's company had to reinvent the process of making mozzarella. With more than 50 patents for cheese making, Leprino Foods reduced the aging process for mozzarella from 14 days to four hours, created a preservative mist to prevent crumbling and adopted quick-freezing methods that had previously been used for peas. 'The company's production of mozzarella is the envy of the U.S. cheese industry,' The Denver Post Magazine said in 1995. 'The U.S. steel industry found huge productivity gains when it developed technologies to continuously cast long, thin slabs of sheet steel from molten metal. Leprino has perfected the same process with mozzarella.' Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
