Sex-the form of payment for Pizza!
Fast-food deliverymen 'often offered sex instead of cash'

A poll for online restaurant delivery service Just-Eat revealed that almost a quarter of them have been asked if they want 'alternative payment methods' including sex, while 23 per cent of drivers have been greeted by a naked customer.
Other inappropriate propositions from customers include booze and drugs.
