Thomas said everyone is studying and stuck in their rooms, so they have food delivered to them. Thomas said Home Team runs specials to attract student business during Dead Week and finals week. We had students call and order pizza who had never called before. Martins said Da Vinci's offers its usual coupons, which students really take advantage of during Dead Week. Pizza is not the only food students have delivered to their rooms.
Sandwiches also are popular during Dead Week.
He said this year business has been steady but should increase. Martins said business is most hectic at night. To deal with the increase in deliveries, Da Vinci's prepares for the extra business ahead of time. She said typically extra drivers have to be hired to help with the increase in delivery. We delivered pizza all the way past the mall.
