Domino's Accidentally Gives Away 11,000 Pizzas in Bailout Promotion

Domino's Accidentally Gives Away 11,000 Pizzas in Bailout Promotion

By Laura Northrup, 9:54 PM on Tue Mar 31 2009, 32,624 views
This morning, Rick Broida posted a great deal from ubiquitous pizza chain Domino's at his Cheapskate blog on CNET. Customers could get a free one-topping pizza (carryout only) by ordering online and using the coupon code "BAILOUT."
The problem: It never was intended to be a real promotion.
The original coupon code was discovered by trial and error by one of Broida's readers. Eventually, individual franchises started canceling the Web orders, blaming the Web coupon's existence on hackers or a "computer glitch."

It was nice that they honored the coupon before that got it pulled. 11,000... that's a whole lot of dough.
