Hey guys, I have an idea for the Food Channel.
So, the food channel has been great, I love the idea, it’s pretty funny and cool! but there is 1 thing that I wish could come to life. And that is deals, you see, nowadays, you can get deals on things like doordash, mcdonalds, etc, but the food channel doesn’t have this. Because ordering plenty of stuff on the food channel can cost a lot of money, and because of this, people usually order dominos from a phone or PC, making the food channel have less users and being viewed as useless, which I don’t want because I think this is pretty cool. I know syncing live digital coupons with the restaurant’s actual checkout system is probably a massive pain to code, but what if we did a simpler workaround? Maybe there could be a section in the channel where we just type in or register a coupon code. The app or Wii could do the basic math on the screen so we see our discount and then will show the final price with the added deal/s, (you can then add more or remove deals from there) and then when the order goes through, that coupon code gets automatically pasted into the delivery instructions or receipt notes. For an example:
“Customer registered coupon code: [1234] - please apply at store.” That way, when the pizza guy gets here or when we pick it up, we can just give them the registered coupon to match the note. To take it a step further, since dominos still uses physical paper coupons, it would be amazing if the food channel had a small feature where you could like request a pack of physical paper coupons to be mailed to your house! Then we would always have the physical coupons ready to hand to the driver when we use the registry feature. I feel like adding a way to get deals would make more people like me actually use the channel way more often for casual everyday dinner instead of just using it for like 1 day a week. what do you guys think?
