Are the competitors still running similar promotions? Check their menus and tell me

Yes, a check of their current U.S. menus for May 2026 shows that both chains are still locked into this aggressive promotional strategy, refusing to back down despite the margin pressure.

Here is what they are actively promoting right now:

Papa John's Their featured national offer is "Papa Pairings," which is explicitly designed to mirror Domino's Mix & Match structure.

• The Deal: Customers get items for $6.99 each when buying two or more.
• The Menu: The pairings include medium 1-topping pizzas, boneless/traditional wings, oven-toasted sandwiches, cheesesticks, and desserts.
• Other Deals: They are also running flat discounts, such as an Epic Stuffed Crust pizza for $14.99 and 30% off regular menu-priced orders, keeping the barrier to entry very low.

Pizza Hut Pizza Hut is continuing its strategy of low entry price points and heavy combo discounting.

• The Deal: Their main anchor right now is a $10 Large 3-Topping Pizza across multiple crust types (Hand Tossed, Thin 'N Crispy, etc.).
• The Menu: They are heavily pushing the "Big Dinner Box," a massive volume-discount bundle that includes two medium pizzas, wings, and breadsticks.
• Recent BOGO: Their promotional cadence hasn't slowed down; just days ago in mid-May, they ran a sweeping Buy-One-Get-One-Free (BOGO) offer on all large menu-priced pizzas to try and drive weekend traffic.
