Pizza Hut is offering a 1-topping, large pizza for just $5.55 for 10 days in June.

A large pizza is about to cost you about the same as a big burger.
On Wednesday, Pizza Hut, the nation's largest pizza chain, will roll out for a limited time, a $5.55 large pizza with one topping promotion. While the chain is using its 55th anniversary as the promotional hook for the lower-than-low price, fast-food consultants say the real driver is tough competition in fast-food industry in general and the chain pizza business in particular.
The Pizza Hut promo will take place for 10 days from June 5 to the 15th. It's good only on carry out pizzas -- not on delivery.
All 6,300 Pizza Hut locations in the U.S. will offer the promo. A large, one-topping home-delivered pizza from Pizza Hut typically costs about $11, plus $2.00 to $3.00 for the delivery fees.
I can't stand the greasiness of Pizza Hut.
