[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For our family, eating out was the big "hidden" expense. It's just so convenient to pull up Door Dash and order what everyone wants, but then I have to stop and think about how that quick delivery from Noodles and Company of lunch for a family of 5 ended up being a hundred bucks.[/quote] yes, there are a lot of hidden fees at Door Dash/Uber Eats etc. delivery charge + service charge + tipping. Once I realized how much it adds (I'd say 20%), I started just calling and doing takeout. Less convenient, but if you stick to restaurants relatively close to you, it will be cheaper. [/quote] I have never used any of the delivery services for this reason. It seemed like a slippery slope to me, plus the system is shitty for drivers and for restaurants. We pick it up from the restaurant or we don’t do takeout and find something in the house to eat instead.[/quote]
