Pizza Hut Has A $10,000 Pizza


About once every other week I get a craving for chicken wings. Because this craving is usually associated with some form of drinking, I am limited in my options so I end up ordering them from Pizza Hut. I like traditional wings. Nothing boneless or turduckened. Just good old fashioned traditional wings in a medium buffalo sauce. So, there I was the other night and I noticed that Pizza Hut has this Valentine's Day box for $10 and it includes some pizza and bread sticks and they say a ring. I said to myself. "The guy who buys that for his girlfriend better run faster than Usain Bolt." But, being the cheap guy I am and knowing that my dad is always looking for something special to get mom, I clicked on it. Turns out the ring is actually a ruby and that the $10 pizza box does cost $10, but the rest of the package costs $10,000 so the total cost is $10,010. If you chicken out giving it your girlfriend they will give you all your money back which is pretty nice of them. Even for the pizza?

It includes a ruby ring, limo service, flowers, fireworks show, photographer and a videographer. They only have five of these to sell. I would love to know if anyone has bought one of the packages. It actually sounds like it would be pretty great except that if I am spending that much I would like to pick any pizza I like.

  1. Whoever thought this up is a marketing genius! Really classy!!!

    This is all kinds of wrong. Are all of the elements in the package worth $10K? This is almost as stoopid as Linds wanting $20K for her infested ass.

  2. Linds would figure out a way to steal that ring.

  3. Rather than all the stuff that comes with it, I would just want the guy to spend the 10k on some really nice diamonds...but maybe that's just me.

  6. You know....the cool thing about this is out there somewhere there is some love struck dude with stars in his eyes who is going to buy this and is his head is exploding with the sheer wonderfulness about it in his mind and his beloved is going to equally treasure it! It ain't me babe but nonetheless, trust me.

  10. How big is the ruby? It might be an excellent deal if it's real.

    Some people consider romance pretty kitschy, yunno, and valentine's day is lamer than a thirsty camel.

    I could see someone doing this as a laugh. I wanna know if it's a real ruby and how big it is first though

  13. Lindsey, I was just coming over here to see if it was true. Looks like USA Today picked it up, so it must be. I hope they can do a better obit for her; that one doesn't do her justice. http://www.usatoday.com/life/people/obit/story/2012-02-11/whitney-houston/53053070/1

  21. Sh*t! It only costs 2g to have a mcdonalds's wedding in Hong Kong. And that's with all the works. Dress, ring, cake, party favors, just about everything (sans airfair).

  22. As I posted on your Facebook wall...this is what every girl dreams of...a proposal sponsored by Pizza Hut. Lots of tacky people in the world, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised by even 8 inquiries.

    Pizza Hut is disgusting and the worst of all the pizza chains. Enty, surely there is a better restaurant in Cali you can get your wing fix from!?
