Imagine not making new emails to get the new customer discount

Nothing wrong with it rarely or if you’re disabled, but paying $30 for McDonald’s or whatever on a regular basis is insane
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 more than double of that?

It is not that easy for everyone. I for example can't afford a car. And restaurants aren't exactly around the corner. So if i want to get food like that, i have to have it delivered.
What about public transport?

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
Yes. Everyone in the US tells me that people get so much more money three them here in Germany because of the taxes and everything. And then you have to pay $30 for a simple food delivery?

Two Big Mac Menus? And some chicken nuggets.

DoorDash is a hell of a lot cheaper than catching a DUI charge tho

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

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.
-
"Nothing wrong with ordering food" - correct
But there is something wrong with paying double to have it delivered - it's called wasting money. Do y'all have a lot of money to waste?
How would they complain that everything is way too expensive nowadays if they didn't?

And guess which one gets paid more.

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.

You know that product pitch, "if you sell just one to every person in the world you'll be a millionaire." Well, Uber eats is a similar approach, but they can sell a lot of food deliveries until the food arrives cold or it's the wrong order or the myriad problems food deliveries encounter.

Normal people have a stocked fridge and are not constantly drunk.
If being drunk seriously affects your shopping schedule, you have an alcohol problem.

How about, you know, a grocery store?
