Well, Pizza Hut is whiffing it big time. I got home from my weekly trip "down the road" to pick up my cigars. I was pretty hungry on why way home, so I started thinking about what I wanted to eat. When I got to the house, and kicked on the TV, they were running a commercial for their Tuscani Pastas. So I said to myself, "Self, I think pasta sounds good. I can save the leftovers for tomorrow and Monday. What a bargain!"
Uh, no.
I logged on to the Pizza Hut website to place my online order with the Shrewsbury, PA Pizza Hut. Once my order was submitted, my phone rang. And when I answered, a sweet young lady informed me that they were out of all the pastas. "Would you like to order something else?" she asked.
"No, I like Domino's Pizza better. I just wanted to try the pasta, " I answered and hung up.
Now, I am no restaraunteur genius by a long stretch. But it would seem to me if that if Pizza Hut is running a string of commercials, and it was a holiday weekend... you might stock up on the item you were promoting?
Or, better yet, for those of us ordering online... how about NOT letting us order online if you are out of stock?
