I can't tell you the number of times when I worked in the pizza business that people would call in and ask for a discount on pickup; justifying it that it cost me money to deliver the pizza. The market asked for it to be seperate; and now it is.

The best way is to have a standard discount that applies for all carry-out.
Makes the people getting delivery feel they are not getting ripped off with a delivery charge and will still tip.
Carry out receives their incentive and feels good knowing they got a discount.
