Don't do it!
Domino's sucks bigtime. Start by just looking at the layout of the ingredients: A bunch of mushrooms in one place, and none in another. Ditto for the "mom and pop" shop.
Papa Murphy is the way to go if you don't want to make it yourself.
We haven't had a Domino's for at least 5-8 years, and I don't miss it.
Pizza Hut ain't bad, but it's no Papa Murphy.
:)
These days, we get takeout from a bunch of local pizza joints, Napolis, Italian Villa, Crazy Tomato, Palios, and 5th Street Pizza(true St. Louis style pizza). All OK, none will make you forget really good pizza. Olive Oils in Richardson is some of the best in the metroplex we've had along with Campisi's.

"E Burres Stigano?"
Is there an iFrateli's in your part of town? The Cole brothers, who own iFrats, are kin to Campisi family. Pizza is very similar. The iFrats by me puts out a very good and consistent product. If you do not like thin, crisp crust, then you should look elsewhere, but if you like Campisi then iFrats might be for you.

"E Burres Stigano?"
Although i Frateli started out around 30 years ago, they got their start in Irving. Four brothers. Started in a little tiny hole in the wall strip mall restaurant with maybe 6 or 8 tables. I used to eat lunch there fairly often back when I worked in Las Colinas. They have the big/main restaurant there at MacArthur and 635, but they have ~15 pizza shops now in NW Dallas Cnty and NE Tarrant. They also just opened a shop in Austin near the Aboretum. Again, if you like Campisi you will probably like i Frateli's pizza too. Pepperoni, jalapenos and garlic. Ummm, umm.
Nearest to us is 6=7 miles away. One of the best Italian restaurants I ate at in San Francisco was I Fratelli (I believe that was the name). Definitely not a chain and quite upscale (Pacific Heights). Have no idea if it's still up and running.

Hey, I worked in Las Colinas back in '84. CompuShop in the Caltex building.That's the last job I quit. Haven't had a job since. I remember when the construction crane tipped over when they were building Williams Square. THAT was bizzare.

You're in the Allen area, right?
You seriously should go up to Sherman to the Sherman Jazz Museum. My good buddy Bill Collins runs the place, and he'd be glad to show you around.

Dominos is much better than previously and at 5.99 for a medium two topping is hard to beat even if you make it yourself. You won't know until you try. Do the large three topping for 7.99 carry out only and you'll see. Both represent the best deal in the pizza industry. Do their thin crust unless you like lots of bread.

every $10 you spend you get 10 points, 60 points and you got your free medium 2 topping pizza.papa johns has a similar deal, all on the apps for your tablet, it is great!

... into perpetuity.
It is his right to both inform people of the benefits as well as eat what he wants. As usual your snarkiness provides benefit to nobody yet you go on and on. Are you a kick 'em when they're down type too? That's what I'm seeing.

LOL!
Take your meds and report back in a couple of hours.
You are a total ahole and agitator. I was sticking up for someone else, it is you on the offensive. You are the nut on meds. Its pretty obvious to me. I don't even take pain medication for my myriad of pain sources. I do take both senna and colace since L1 was damaged in my accident.
And thank you for proving my point. I'm sure you will continue to do so.

Uh-Huh.
I was impressed when I ordered the 5.99 medium bacon mushroom no sauce. Commercial sauce always sucks and is too salty.
