[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So just for Friday nights? Ordering direct  from restaurant and picking up does help.

We have tried several options but always resort to just delivery on our nights off from cooking. It's actually easier and more pleasant to find cost savings elsewhere. [/quote]

Most restaurants don't have a direct way to order and divert to other sites. Where possible we do pick ups thanks [/quote]

lol this is the most millennial thing ever. “I need to order the food without actually speaking to anyone and it’s impossible without the app.” 
The answer is to call whatever place you want, order the food, and then go get it yourself. Saves a ton of money and they will always take your order.
Restaurant owners strongly prefer you do this. They hate handing over food knowing it will be sitting in some dank uber eats car assuming room temperature before it gets to its destination. [/quote]

This. I've never understood the appeal of going through a third party and having someone else pick up your food unless you are sick or disabled.

It adds a huge amount of cost to the order and lots of potential mistakes. Consider calling the restaurant directly and / or using their online ordering system (many have this now) and having one parent go pick up the food on the way home from work. You get the same food, the restaurant makes more money directly from you, and you save money. [/quote]

The appeal is time, Karen.[/quote]

And convenience. [/quote]

Time and convenience are great, but you have to be willing to pay for it. You don't get prepared food delivered right to your door for cheap. Sorry. [/quote]
