Within the brand-new Ultimate Takeaway range are three Domino’s inspired flavours: The Meaty One (524g) (inspired by Meateor), a sizzling sausage and meatball feast, The Banger (462g) (inspired by Absolute Banger), a smoky hotdog delight with a spicy kick, and The Texas Style BBQ Chicken & Bacon (502g) (inspired by Texas BBQ), boasting tangy BBQ sauce, succulent chicken and smoky bacon (each £3.99, 8 slices).

The delivery service will let customers select up to two of these delicious new flavours to be delivered hot and fresh to their door. The range, which is Aldi’s most Domino’s-like pizza offering so far, is launching in stores nationwide from Ninth October, so those who can't manage to bag a delivery slot can also grab a to go.

Julie Ashfield, who is the MD of Buying at Aldi UK, said: “With prices of takeaways soaring, we’re really excited and pleased to be able to offer shoppers delicious pizzas at a fraction of the price of the more expensive high-street chains.

Statistics Show Scots Are A Nation Of Domino’s Pizza Lovers – Average Of One Domino’s Pizza Per Head Of Population Sold in 2010

As Domino's Pizza celebrates 15 years in Scotland this month, new statistics prove we are indeed a nation of pizza lovers; with Domino’s Pizza selling one pizza per head of population in 2010.

With 47 stores across the country and over 1,100 staff, Domino’s Pizza has made great strides in Scotland as the population has munched its way through new pizzas such as the Domino’s Gourmet range and recently introduced Stuffed Crust, limited edition favourites including the Reggae Reggae made with Levi Roots’ famous sauce and the Haggis pizza (specially introduced for Burns Night), as well as firm favourites including Pepperoni Passion and Texas BBQ.

Pizzas from Domino’s stores across the country have been delivered to golf courses, gyms, patients in hospitals and paramedics and firefighters…even on stage to Strictly Come Dancing winner Harry Judd and fellow bandmates during a McFly concert in Edinburgh.

Chris Forrester, Domino’s franchisee who opened the first store in Great Western Road in December 1996, explains the success of the UK’s number one pizza delivery service in Scotland: “Since we launched to our customers in the West End of Glasgow late December 1996, Domino’s Pizza has become a firm favourite for students, couples, groups of friends and families. We’ve seen a massive increase in the home delivery market in 15 years, and as customers become more discerning, they’ve increasingly come to Domino’s Pizza to deliver a piping hot, freshly made treat.”

Join a nation of pizza lovers by ordering online at www.dominos.co.uk or using Domino’s iPad, iPhone and Android ordering apps.

Blipp it for a Domino offer!

Domino’s Pizza, has launched a new six-sheet poster campaign with Blippar to bring its latest 555 pizza deal to life.

Over 6,000 sites across the country now sport Domino’s poster, which uses the Blippar app to create an augmented reality experience. Users can download deals for their nearest Domino’s store, get the Domino’s mobile ordering app, become a Facebook fan and view their local menu, all by looking at Domino’s poster through a smartphone.

To non-Blippar users, the poster simply shows Domino’s current 555 deal, which offers any three (or more) 9½” pizzas for just £5.55 each.

Nick Dutch, multimedia manager at Domino’s, said: “We’re always looking for innovative new ways to engage with our customers using the latest technology. This exciting new campaign with Blippar provides us with a great opportunity not only to communicate a good pizza deal, but also to engage with users by offering them information specific to their local store and other features just for mobile users. With sites up and down the country, we’re looking forward to pizza lovers blipping it where they live to get more from our posters.”
