Solution

The pricing strategy described in the question is an example of second-degree price discrimination. This type of price discrimination involves charging different prices based on the quantity demanded or the version of the product. In this case, the pizza joint is charging a lower price for pizzas picked up at the shop (a version of the product that requires less service) compared to delivered pizzas (a version of the product that includes delivery service).
