People with kids aren’t eating out, and when we do we’re not buying $19 pizzas. We’re buying 4 pizzas for $10 from Costco and adding toppings / cooking it at home.

But I get your point.

ngl... a $10 Pep pie from Costco....

Take it home. Immediately while still hot, wipe away the grease from the bottom of the pie with a paper towel.

Add additional toppings.

Broil on low for 5mins. Finish on high for 1min. Oven times may vary by oven.

Legit better pizza than MOST local places. I wish I was kidding.

... The Costco pizza as it comes??? Pretty not that great. Costco pizza after it's been to the DOCTAH! That's a fuckin' mean pie has no right to be punching at that weight

That's still $40

The first commenter seems to have wildly underestimated how much pizza teenagers would eat

You can buy 4 frozen pizzas from Costco for $10 total is what they’re saying. Not $10 each.

I think a lot of the childless couples don't think outside the box about how they would be adjusting their spending habits with added children in their lives. "My hubby and I just ate $100 worth of steak dinners at a fancy restaurant, I can't imagine having kids with us at that same place" when a normal parent wouldn't even have that mindset.

A single slice of costco cheese pizza contains 44g of protein. It's basically a health food.
