Oh, and I'll vouch for Western Pizza as well - soooo good. And Atlas Pizza - having some in about four hours and counting!

Anyone know any really good restaurants that have "debit-at-the-door" for their delivery drivers?

Only one I know of right now is Panago, and I'm getting tired of their menu. I wish Swiss Chalet had it, bastids always forcing me to use my credit card!
I know this isn't the point of the thread, but there is virtually no difference (except for psychologically) between using a debit card and paying off your credit card balance at the end of the month (you could actually argue that the latter gives you more interest and is safer, too).

If you're reallly concerned about not racking up your credit card balance, then go to online banking and pay off the credit card after you're done eating your pizza/chicken. Plus, credit card transactions are unlimited, and you build good credit while you're at it.

I think it's only the Nigerian restaurants that do that.

I can't remember if it is Pizza 73 or Pizza Hut, but one of those two have it here in Lethbridge. If they have it in Lethbridge, you'd assume that Calgary would too.

I am awaiting my lottery payout from Nigeria. Just one more payment and it's mine apparently!

Its been known to happen, from time to time. I think keeping the serious posts rare increases their perceived value.

Them and the Gay Mafia have been known to use the practice.

Speaking of pizza, the best pizza I have ever had is stavros sports bar on 4th street nw. The all meat with extra cheese is fantastic. Expensive but worth it

I think the real question is, where do they keep the PIN pad?

That's awesome... but I refuse to give my debit card to anyone other than the wallet inspector.

It's the baked in pubes. Just make sure you never order the crab and parmesan pizza.

Are you guys crazy? Western Pizza is some of the worst pizza around. I do work for a private pizza place, but we have way better pizza. I can say that because I was a customer there for 2 years before I started there. We do debit at the door, and yes it is quite expensive per month, but 1/2 our deliveries are with Debit, so it equals out.
