    Ordered a large one topping (11.50 + 1.75) and charged an extra large with one topping (13.99 + 2.00).
    Went home, measured the diameter...and sure enough...I got a large. Went back, asked what size it was....and the guy knew immediately it was a large.
    Showed him my receipt and he have me 3 bucks out of the register.
    Now my question is...how often do they get away with it?

    And before you say it was a mistake....these guys do this for a living. They know EXACTLY how much a large one-topping pie is.

    I love their pizza...not sure how I will feel about going back after they blatantly attempt to rip me off.

    I use the rule of three for these circumstances.

    One miss-measured Pizza is a happenstance
    Two miss-measured Pizzas are a coincidence
    Three miss-measured Pizzas are a pattern

    I would give them another chance.

    Well, I wanted to make sure I got a large and not an extra large. If I said...this is a large...they could say, "No, it's an extra large." How do you know the difference?

    Next pizza you order should have Xanax and Paxil on it.

    Sounds like an honest mistake to me.... the cashier probably never saw what was inside the box. I've never had an issue there....

    I think the pizza here is terrible, but I do order the other food and have had a "scam" type problem with the before. I had a brand new menu that stated "Free Delivery", no minimum, and when they got to our door, there was a charge on there for my "free" delivery.

    I understand my post was petty and overstated....but there are 56 pages of posts about Dunkin' Donuts... just trying to fit in!
