The best pizza coupons in Australia this week

Takeaway pizzas are a favourite among Australians who don't want to cook for a night, but there are always so many discounts around no one should be paying full price.

The restaurant makes very little money – or even loses money – on some of these deals. But they are there to lure customers in with the hope that they'll spend on other full price items.

Pizza Hut coupons

Pizza Hut has, in recent times, dramatically reduced the number of coupons in circulation. This shortage has been especially acute since 2015 when it faced a class action from a group of franchisees for the cheap deals that sent them broke.

These days the best offers are more commonly found on its own website or through very short-term vouchers that only last one or two days:

• 2 large pizzas and 1 side pick up for $19 - code HUT5869, expiring Aug 11

• 3 large pizzas pick up for $23.85 - code HUT5868, expiring Aug 11

• 2 large pizzas and 2 selected sides delivered for $27 - code HUT5866, expiring Aug 11

• 3 large pizzas and 3 selected sides delivered for $35 - code HUT5861, expiring Aug 11

• 4 large pizzas and 4 selected sides delivered for $46 - offer page
