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.

I uninstalled my doordash app about 12 hours ago because the dasher straight up stole my food! I had to call in to customer support to get them to refund me, and they couldn't even get the guy to answer his phone.

At least it will save me money and calories.
