There was this pizza store nearby that had insanely cheap pizza. It costed less than half of their competitors. It wasn't great, but it wasn't bad. The price made me think it wasn't a legitimate business.

Yeah I didn't even say this but the price of like a full-size calzone like a huge one I think was $5 base and I was like what the heck is going on here

I've often thought about what I would do if I won the lottery, and this is it- I'd start a few businesses, not really caring if they are profitable, but just to have access to the stuff I want at a known place and time. Sure you could just own the equipment to make really good pizza anytime, but leaving it dormant most of the time would seem like a waste. Rather make it into a business, even if it doesn't cover the cost, it would at least reduce it somewhat...

I guess if you like serving people that would be fun, since you know if any customer was rude, you could just tell them to get the f*** out.
