Pizza Hut Cares, Offers Gift Card When You Misunderstand Survey
This is a story of a small thing going wrong during a pizza order, and a relatively small gesture from the company to make things better. No, it's not a large, earth-shattering problem. Jay took a survey on the Pizza Hut web site, and wasn't entered in the drawing that enticed him to take the survey in the first place. Why was that, he wondered? So he used some Consumerist resources and got on the phone.

CJ and his family have tolerated subpar service from a local Pizza Hut for years because of the convenience: this Pizza Hut is just a three-minute drive away from their house.
