Total sense
-
yes! it is a SERVICE Americans already pay for in taxes, the need to make a profit on it makes no sense.
-
A letter doesn’t cost as much as overpriced food.
-
I thought they were taking the piss with the $30, is that for real?
I used to live in Morocco and I paid about $3 a month for free deliveries with their local equivalent.
-
And somehow USPS can still pay their couriers more.

Sorry mate, it's just the Americans that are fat
As an American, I can tell you it's true, and we don't realize it in large part because portion sizes in the US are crazy. A medium-sized beverage here would be a large in most other countries. Restaurants traditionally serve huge portions of food, supposedly originally so that no matter how big your appetite, everybody would get enough to eat and have leftovers to bring home. But now people just eat it all.
Add in all the sugar that's in our food (thanks to a health propaganda campaign that convinced people fat was bad, most fat is replaced with sugar - especially high-fructose corn syrup), which is way more fattening than actual fat, and the lack of pedestrian access to most things, and you've got a perfect recipe for an obesity epidemic of people who eat too much, drink too many sugary drinks, and don't exercise enough.

I figured out how to get my food with NO delivery fee: I get off my fat ass and get it myself. Novel approach, I know.

I've had high fees but things are hidden, like, increased prices, tips, fees and stuff? I got my license last year so now I can drive on my own to get stuff but being in the burbs without transport in these poorly designed towns blows.

I'm sure the food is cheaper if you ordered it more than 24h beforehand

If I'm bothering to go out anyway I'll just get ingredients from the store and do it myself.

It's a service offered in exchange for currency. No one is forcing anyone to request food delivery service over Uber or whatever. It's pure and simple convenience
The other is a state service, which might surprise some but manages quite a lot of citizens private information. Certainly nothing as banal as food
-
This is a perfect illustration of why we should not privatize essential services.

Don’t worry they already have a plan

From one extreme to the next. Interesting.

Ah yes. You have the time to sit around and get wasted but life is too busy for you to go to the store.

How much is same-day courier service though?
