Near me it basically was a convenient way for greed to run rampant.
Before the pandemic, delivery meant “your order + delivery fee + tip for driver”.
The last time I attempted to order delivery it was my order ($30 minimum) + delivery fee + packaging fee (charging for the disposable containers and forks and stuff) + third party delivery service fee + tip for driver + tip for restaurant staff + delivery service peak time upcharge.
I only wanted a $20 entree, but by the time I added a few apps to get to the delivery minimum and added all the fees up with the tips, it was getting to be over $65 for one meal.

So I cancelled and cooked my own damn dinner.
I’ve done this many times. I gave up on deliveries.
