I expect this to happen but debating on having one today, but Papa John’s is having a limited thing on the menu that has lasted for two months now. It’s the doritos papadias and I’ve already had one. It was good except for the person making it didn’t put enough ranch spices on it, it was mostly on the crust parts which defeats the purpose of the whole papadia.

Anyways, it’s set to end tomorrow and the advert had said it would be available on menus through 23rd, implying it’ll be available through the day until the 24th.

But I expect it to be removed as soon as even today because some locations are assholes like that. Where they’d remove limited time things way before it’s even over. So that when you get there, you’re confronted with the speech that it’s not available anymore because of them prematurely removing it.

Some places are cool to even allow limited time items even go beyond a little of the date.

    If they end early it is because they ran out of supplies, and if they run it longer it is because they have too much. No one is trying to be a dick, or be nice. It is just inventory.

      This happens all the time at my Home Depot, especially the battery and tool deals. One time it sold out in under 8 hours and I had to explain to everyone that the entire state was out and I couldn’t make an equivalent out of the non-bundled items because it would count as shrink

    Some times this happens because they are only allocated so much supply to produce the item so if it is popular it will sell out before the run end date, and inversely if it is not popular they will try to sell as long as they have the material to do so to recoup the food cost.

    Dude, you don’t even know if the pizza joint has removed those things or not and you’re posting about it?
