    Based on my experience when I was still buying Domino’s, these emails that you can’t opt out of aren’t even ads. “Status of your account and points total” is what it says on the tin. It’s not promotional offers or spam, it’s information pertinent to your account meaning it’s rare.

    This might have changed in the years since I stopped using Domino’s so YMMV.

      I regularly send emails to spam that say something along the lines of “Hey, you have free dominos” because I could redeem 20 points for a free ranch dressing. I also get emails about whatever deal they decide to have that week.

      I can’t fix that cause I need 60 for the pizza, the 20 is gonna sit idle.

      Also while I’m bringing it up, 20 for a sauce? Hell no. 10 would be too high.

      But yeah, they’re annoying, but within reason for a rewards program, I do get something from this.

      Hey I’m just checking in with your account status. Definitely just that, not hoping you’ll but anything…

      All emails companies send you are designed to get you to spend money.

      It’s an ad.

      Of course if that ad comes with a discount I might not be unhappy to get it. But if a(n) status message ad comes in reminding me of pizza and it’s on a day they want me to pay full price for dominos. Then I don’t want that message.

      Either I’ll feel hungrier or poorer.
