Bigger Pizza Better Deal

Bigger Pizza Better Deal
Sciarrino’s Pizzeria in Springfield, Pa. stayed open during Hurricane Sandy and, yes, the bigger pizzas were the better deals.

Consumer tip of the day: A 12-inch medium pie has more than twice the pizza of an 8-inch small but is usually just a few dollars more.

The size of the pie is a matter of pi. Halve the diameter then square it and multiply by 3.14 (pi rounded off).

You’ll get 113 square inches of pizza in a 12-inch pie (36 x 3.14) vs 50 square inches in the 8-inch pie (16 x 3.14).
