To order a pizza I don't really feel like...........

from Perfect Pizza just to make up the minimum order as I want some icecream??

I can't get out to the shop as the DS's are asleep in bed, and I need some comfort food.

Only place I can think of that does icecream (more particularly Ben & Jerry's) is Perfect Pizza, but their minimum order is £8, and the B&J is "only" £4.39.....

Ordering the pizza as well would cost quite a bit more though (money not a problem, I can afford it.........)

Do it - you ROCK for even considering it!

bonkerz · 04/05/2008 20:37

Just do it!!!!!!! YANBU!!!! If you need ice cream then do whatever it takes, maybe some reasoning would help... To be a good mummy tomorrow you HAVE to have Ice cream no matter what!!

foxinsocks · 04/05/2008 20:37

just shove the pizza in the fridge and have it for breakfast/lunch cold

singyswife · 04/05/2008 20:37

Yep, 2 ice creams and then you have one in the freezer for another night.

2point4kids · 04/05/2008 20:37

yes, order 2 and put the spare ice cream in the freezer for tomorrow!

ByTheSea · 04/05/2008 20:37

YANBU. Go for it! Feed the pizza to the dc tomorrow.

ipodtherforipoor · 04/05/2008 20:38

Ds's can eat it tomorrow!

my DS used to chew on the crusts the next day if I wasn't quick enough to get them to the bin first!

I've done this for alcohol before,
A kebab shop I used to order from sold bottles of beer/wine (really bloody expensive though) and I've ordereed from them to get mroe, also ordered a curry from an indian just to get the bottle of wine.
