Final Update and I will remove the sticky at the end of the day.  I left a comment on the corporate site regarding this code nonsense and also asked to have all information removed from their database.  I received an email overnight stating they had removed all my information.  Following after was this instruction:

COMPLAINT:  This customer has submitted a complaint. Once you have spoken with the customer, please contact the Consumer Services Team with details of how this incident has been resolved.  Please advise us by email at [email protected] or by fax 502-261-4031.
Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter.

Actually, this is the most interesting part of all:  Papa John’s is committed enough to cover comments 24/7, and wants to make certain that the outsourced people follow through.  Shame about the code, really, ’cause now I’m impressed…

Forget this company. By the time I got home yesterday, the pizzas were cold and slightly dried out – my fault, I know.  My husband said that they were very good hot, though (and even reheated they were tasty), so I decided to order another couple today.  Went to the website and signed in (remember, you have to register with them to use any codes).  Order two pizzas and attempt to enter the promo code, but it would not take it, something about having used the code the maximum number of times allowed. WTF?  Tried a few more times, same code comment, so called corporate and explained the problem.  Woman asked if it was an exclusive code (yeah, to all people who go online), then said I wasn’t entering it properly; supposed to enter it at the beginning.  Uh, no you’re not, but tried it her way for shits and giggles –  end result was the same.  Placed me on hold for     a   l   o   n   g                t  i  m  e…….. came back and said her supervisor told her it was a one-time use code only, tied into your email.  Now I realize that everybody has a number of email accounts, but then you have to remember what phone number you registered with what email, what address are you using, what name… that’s just bullshit, peeps.

Do they really expect us to enter all our personal identification to get a lousy discount on pizza?  I am going to remove my info from their site and will never order from them again.

If this was printed anywhere on the offer, it was in print so tiny that it blended into the picture. and it doesn’t, ’cause i just looked at the ad.

For 2 large pizzas (one topping) for $11.99, enter HOLIDAYS in the promo code field. You must register or have an account to get this deal and it’s only available for online orders. Nice thing, though, is that you can order this in advance from 1 hour up to 21 days.

I played around with this and was only able to get the deal by using the “Basic” form; of course, you can always watch the animation to build your own custom pizza (it’s kinda cool, actually) and then switch back for the actual order.  So two pizzas for $12.86 (tax grrr) and I’ve just made dinner!

This promo is good up to Super Bowl XLV.
