During Fire Prevention Week, Oct. 9-15, participating Domino's Pizza stores will highlight this year's safety campaign theme: "Fire won't wait. Plan your escape" with flyers on top of boxes. Domino's is planning the event in conjunction with the National Fire Protection Association, which is celebrating the 100th anniversary of Fire Prevention Week, according to a press release.

Some Domino's order will also be delivered by fire engine. If the smoke alarms in the home are working, the pizza is free. If the alarms are not working, the firefighters will replace the batteries or install fully functioning alarms for free.

"Every year, Domino's stores look forward to partnering with their local fire departments and the NFPA to spread fire safety messages to their customers in an exciting and unexpected way," Jenny Fouracre, Domino's spokeswoman, said in the release. "This is the 15th year that Domino's has brought the program to neighborhoods across the U.S."

"Today's homes burn faster and hotter than they used to, minimizing the amount of time individuals have to escape safely," Lorraine Carli, NFPA's vice president of outreach and advocacy, said in the press release. "That is why it is critical for every household to develop a home escape plan and practice it regularly. In a typical home fire, you may have as little as two minutes to get out from the time the smoke alarm sounds. We hope to raise awareness about these potentially life-saving messages through our annual effort with Domino's."

Domino's operates more than 19,200 stores in more than 90 markets.
