5.2.11 Domino Effect

Domino's Pizza now has an 'offer' on, but it's not quite as straightforward as you'd hope.

Buy One, Get Two Free! *
Two sides or desserts free with every large pizza

The asterisk denotes quite a few terms for the offer, separate from the headline-grabber making one think that buying one pizza would entitle you to two more pizzas free, rather than side dishes or desserts.

* Not valid with any other offer
* Only valid when you order any large pizza from the menu
* Excludes Ice Cream Combos
* Valid for a limited time only
* Subject to availability
* Valid at participating stores only
* Please mention offer when ordering

It's getting to the stage that the terms of any offer in life are more comprehensive by a clear mile than the offer itself.  I half expected the last asterisk to be:

* Don't call after 11pm - we won't make or deliver your pizza, but you may still be charged!
