    I now just buy the large ready-to-bake supreme pizza at Aldi and just enhance it by adding mozarella and other toppings at home. $8 plus maybe $2 worth of extra stuff I put on it. Just like sushi, I really can’t justify paying too much for it when eating out.

        You mean from their food court, or their Kirkland brand freezer ones? I have wanted to try the food court ones, but if I get it home and it’s not good then I’m both frustrated and need to find something else to eat, so I always pass it up since I don’t know if it’s good or not…

            For me, time, effort, and of course the $10. I’m disabled so take a standard costco run, make it take 4x as long and physically difficult. Add taking a gamble on dinner as I leave and it’s a make-or-break decision.

            I’ll have to give it a go the next time I’m there. I’ve had their ice cream and it’s very good, but that’s not a meal :p

              if you’re worried about it, just buy a slice.

              they’re weird so they slice it into 6 but that makes it a huuuge slice. well well well worth the $2 imo, it’s certainly a loss leader for them (meaning the cost for them to make it is more than they charge you for it)

              legitimately the best pizza I had in the years I spent living in Georgia.

          Just get a slice next time you go through. Its $2, and you get a snack + qa. Imo, better than a lot of dedicated pizza shops, and cheaper

            I didn’t know they sold individual slices, I only saw people with full pies or hot dogs. I’ll definitely grab one next time :D

          The Motor City Pizza (if they sell at your Costco) in the frozen aisle is good too if you like deep dish. It’s too meaty for my taste, but will do the trick in a pinch.
