They exist in Michigan. They switched around their entire marketing scheme though. Now they sell already made Large Peporoni Pizzas for $5. It's a good idea and the Pizzas are fresh when you pick them up, but it is still little ceaser's quality.

$5 pizza w00t.

I think it also depends on the place. The Little Ceasars at home is freaking awesome especially when i pick it up at 11 something when it's fresh out of the oven while the one in chico sucks.

The one at Wayne State campus sucks because they got rid of the $5 deal and the quality is lower IMO. All food sources on campus over charge like crazy, a 5 min walk takes you to a much better and cheaper place.

We've got plenty of them in Oregon.
I worked for one for 2 years. At that time, we did the $2.99 mediums every Tuesday. Those days were crazy. We'd be cooking them as fast as we could and have a line stretching out the door from around 5 pm until closing at 11pm.

Little Caesar's pizza is good when it's fresh and properly made. And those $5 large's are a great deal($10 for dinner for 2 adults and 4 kids can't be beat), but with these premade pizzas, they do skimp on the ingredients and they can get nasty if they've been sitting in the warmer very long. But who's going to complain at that price.

Still, it's good enough pizza that I brought it home for dinner at least twice a week for the 2 years I worked there. Of course, after I quit, I think it was at least 2 years before I started buying pizza there again.

And wtf is up with people not knowing how to spell CAESAR?

Huh? There's still one where I live. 5 bucks for a large pizza and 1 buck for breadsticks. Really really cheap, but the pizza's not too good. Maybe it's just this store, I don't know.

I have never ate pizza from Little Caesars (we don't have them locally). I've always wondered how good their pizza was/is.

They are probably the busiest pizza place in my city, there are 24 locations in San Antonio. I just miss the Big Foot, but I'll take a large pizza for 5 dollars that tastes pretty damn good.

The pizza wasn't the best but pretty damn good for the money.

It's been awhile but I'd rank them like this:

1. Papa Johns
2. Little Caesars
3. Pizza Hut
4. Dominos

I've got 3 Little Caesars within 3 miles of me. I just wish they could make their Crazy Bread consistently.

I know that when we did $2.99 mediums on Tuesdays, we used less cheese, less sauce, and less pepperoni than on a normal medium. They can skimp because they figure nobody will complain since it's so cheap. Little Caesar's crust is dry, not greasy like some places. So the portion without any sauce or cheese isn't very good.
