Total sense

And sometimes you're too tired for that or want something you can't reasonably make at home. There's nothing wrong with ordering food.
-
Don't worry, they are already trying to get rid of the USPS so we can be charged ridiculous amounts for mail delivery.
-
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 get off my fat ass
But the entire point of having it delivered is so you can keep sitting on it.
-
Imagine not making new emails to get the new customer discount

-
So I don't really understand why you are paying so much for food?
Looking at the local delivery app, I just now chose a "big Mac mcmenue" containing a big Mac, fries and a 0.5l drink. This would cost me 10,89€, let's say 13€ with a very generous tip.At this moment it seems 13€ are worth $13,48. What are you ordering that costs $30?

-
Cooking, the lost art.
-
The post office looks cheap because they get paid to deliver those 300 pieces of junk per week.
-
Economies of scale and different expectations of timely delivery... Both of those prices are much more than I deal with here in the NL though
-
What are you ordering that costs more than double of that?
Two Big Mac Menus? And some chicken nuggets.

I don't care if my mail is still warm when they put it in my mailbox.

So people in the USA just eat a lot?
Another stereotype confirmed I guess
-
I know some in Europe as well. A colleague from work regularly eats a large menu with an additional burger and chicken nuggets for lunch.
-
USPS should not focus on profitability and fuck Uber and the gig economy.
-
How would they complain that everything is way too expensive nowadays if they didn't?
-
And guess which one gets paid more.
-
And yet, it won't keep you from ordering food.
The issue is that there's still demand for it at that price.
-
It's part of the propaganda. Richest country in the world, they say, but you pay a lot more for basically everything because there's few government regulations keeping prices in check, and a number of things that are done by the government in other countries are run by for profit corporations here (healthcare).
Although, $10.50 for the mail is pretty pricey. That's no letter that they're sending. I run an Etsy shop and frequently send stuff in padded envelopes through the post office, and those cost me like $4 to send across the country.
