Frozen pizza costs the same as most chains, may as well get it fresh. There was a time this wasn't true but now they're all like 8.50+

What chain can you get a pizza for $8.50? Only one I can think of is Little Caesars (which I personally adore, but I am a living trash can). Actual question, pizza is hilarious inflated price wise used to be a cheap treat.

10 years ago I paid my pizzas 5€ fresh, now I pay them 6€ because I lost the student discount... Please don't tell the owner about inflation I beg you

Maybe you should learn to make pizza at home. Detroit style pizza is relatively easy to make if you know how to produce bread. Thin crust can be done, it's just a little more effort.

Thin crust (Napoli style) is easy, so long as you have an oven that can attain 500°C (932°F)

Ok but can I eat the fresh pizza from a chain without going outside?

What gourmet frozen pizza is this? An "okay by my standards" one costs £1.75..

Yeah, meanwhile pizza from a chain is like £16+

How tf does a frozen pizza cost 8 quid lol

The most basic of basic vegan pizzas I can get at Lidl here costs like less than 2€ per pizza. Topped with some tomatoes, maybe some additional cheese, vegan salami or something and I'm cookin. The fancy vegan pizzas cost like 3€

Where I am I can consistently get bogos that make the premium frozen pizza brands about $5 per pizza. There are also cheaper store brands that are $3-4. Definitely cheaper than dominos/Papa John's. Especially since they've raised there prices considerably in recent years as well as stopped offering the kinds of deep discount specials and deals they used to offer.
