The fresh pizza recieved from @dominos is already cold then why to eat leftover pizza cold?

Better one is as per customer experience: BABY ALL I WANT is chilled pizza and then don't look back to customer issues after delivery

FITT at IIT Delhi was the partner incubator for this iDEX(SPRINT) challenge @iitdelhi @fitt_iitd @ManveenCh

New marketing strategy of @dominos. Order pizza and we will delivered it to your doorstep after 1 hour or more. Eat chilled pizza and enjoy because @dominos will not listen/revert to your complaints. New mantra to earn money. @Dominos_UK @dominos
