Step 4. Order Pizza from your Shoes
The last order of business (pun intended) is to put the Flic button in your shoes. I went and got the cheapest coolest shoes I could find at Walmart (so, no, they don't have cheese pattern-stamped leather) and used my Cricut machine to cut vinyl decals out to make them as Pizza Hut-y as possible (if I was in it for the long haul I would've used iron-on).
I cut a little slit in one of the tongues and used fabric glue to attach velcro on either side so I could open and close it. Then I removed the film covering the sticky backing on the Flic and stuck the Flic right in there!
If you're looking to keep your shoes more intact or for a more versatile pizza button, the Flic also comes with a clip!
Now, all you have to do to summon a pizza to your door is click (the Flic app will ding)...wait a few seconds (I just waited till I heard my phone buzz with the Twitter notification text)...double click...wait a few seconds...hold...wait a few seconds...aaaaaand boom! Now you gotta wait 50 minutes for a pizza. 😉
Note: Apparently Domino's has a deal with Flic that also orders pizza (that I didn't know about before making this project), but I found Domino's "easy order" process to actually be pretty restrictive and frustrating. Pizza Hut definitely owns the customer experience with their chatbots.
