What's the best place to buy pizza in bulk?

[edit]

I am trying to buy copious amounts of pizza for my English class. What's the best place to order lots of ready-to-eat pizza? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 100.12.70.128 (talk) 22:58, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Depending on your location, Costco. Viriditas (talk) 23:31, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Latin nouns ending in tas are feminine, by the way —Tamfang (talk) 04:18, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
But those tend to be abstract concepts, states of being, derived from an adjective, like liber (free) -> libertas (liberty); the latter seems to be available as a masculine name. In this case viriditas seems to come from viridis, "green", but Google Translate prefers to render it in English as "weed" rather than "greenness". I am not familiar with Weed as a first name, but I think it could be for either sex. --Trovatore (talk) 22:06, 11 April 2022 (UTC) [reply]

If you're buying a lot of something, call around. Some places might give you a discount for bulk, especially for a student. No harm in asking. One place near me sells an absolutely massive pie that would feed an army, that might be extra fun for the novelty. Temerarius (talk) 17:58, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
thanks for the advice 100.12.70.128 (talk) 22:29, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Is this something you, personally, are doing for the class or is it being officially provided by the school? If it is "official", you may be required to use particular providers, depending on various laws and regulations. --152.27.33.1 (talk) 15:44, 12 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It is something I am doing personally, but thanks for the heads up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 100.12.70.128 (talk) 02:13, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
