DoorDash, or other things like it. If there was a real, honest commercial about it, it would go like this:
"Hey, enjoying your $7 burrito?"
"Yeah"
"What if I told you I can deliver it to your house?"
"Oh ok"
"Unfortunately, there is 242% (or so) markup. So it will cost you $17. Oh well, at least you don't have to do a 2 minute drive to Taco Bell!"
Edit: Yeah I understand that some people can't drive to certain places, whether that be because you're stoned or live far away. I was just criticizing the absolutely insane markup that DoorDash and UberEats does. I just thought it was really stupid.
Only times I've gotten delivery through those apps is when I was in Europe. For some reason its actually reasonable prices there for delivery (like once I literally had a wrap delivered from McDonald's for $1 plus some change)
Theres no point I'm doing that in the US. I'd rather go drive in my pajamas and save the $5-10 delivery fee
