I don't get it either. That shit is so much more expensive. Not only are they charging you delivery fees and "convenience" fees, the base prices of what you're ordering at are also inflated through apps like Doordash and Uber Eats. Something that is only $5 if you went and got it yourself is now $8, plus a delivery fee, plus other fees. And then there is also a chance that the person delivering it is a piece of shit who just steals your food.
Sometimes you need the convenience.
If I have to work late and don't have time to cook, and my kids need to be in bed in an hour and a half, then I'm going to pay a little extra, and that's fine.
Not everyone has a wide open schedule every night.
