Supreme Pizza: Obviously 1 ft.^2 for $10.99

Euclid Pizza: radius of each pizza is (1/2) foot, so both pizza's together from Euclid's would be 2%2Api%2A%281%2F2%29%5E2=1.57 ft^2, for $10.99.

Euclid's Pizza is underselling itself a bit compared to Supreme's Pizza deal.
%281.57-1%29%2F1=0.57, 57% more pizza than Supreme for this price.
