Domino's offers customers $3 to pick up their own pies

Amid a nationwide labor shortage, Domino's Pizza says it's "tipping" customers who pick up their own online orders with a $3 coupon toward their next order.
Carryout customers who order online now through May 22, 2022, get a code redeemable for three bucks off another online carryout order of $5 or more the following week, the company announced Monday.
The fast-food chain wants to reward customers "who take the time and energy out of their day to act as their own delivery drivers," Domino's Chief Marketing Officer Art D'Elia said in a statement. The offer comes ahead of the Super Bowl, a day in which Domino's typically sells at least 2 million pizzas, he added.
Ashley White received her earliest combat action badge from the United States Army soon after the first lieutenant arrived in Afghanistan. The silver military award, recognizing soldiers who've been personally engaged by an attacker during conflict, was considered an achievement in and of itself as well as an affirming rite of passage for the newly deployed. White had earned it for using her own body to shield a group of civilian women and children from gunfire that broke out in the midst of her third mission in Kandahar province. All of them survived. She never mentioned the badge to anyone in her battalion.
