Waiting for more than 30 minutes? We'll send you to the movies
For years, Domino's Pizza had a 30-minute guarantee: Order a pizza for delivery, and if it's not at your doorstep in 30 minutes or less, the pizza's on Domino's-no questions asked.
Sister hospitals St. Mary's Medical Center in Blue Springs, MO, and St. Joseph Medical Center in Kansas City, MO, have their own 30-minute guarantee: If you're a patient in the ED, and you're not seen by a doctor or nurse practitioner within 30 minutes of the time you walk in, you get two free movie passes-no questions asked.
