Pro Tips for Pizza Budgeting
- Bulk Buy: Always check warehouse clubs like Costco or Sam's Club for better pricing on drinks and sides.
- RSVP Matters: Confirm your guest count 3 days before to avoid over-ordering food that goes to waste.
- Hidden Costs: Don't forget napkins, plates, and cups—these can add $20-$40 to a large party budget.
