Food Delivery

 

Every time I order food delivery I say never again.  It's almost always a disappointment for me.  But -- this weekend I got a promotion for $20 off.  Since I often can't resist what seemed like a good promotion, I decided to give it another try.  Actually two tries.  Besides, my bf is here and we didn't feel like cooking.  

This weekend didn't change my mind.   I won't rush to do it again.  Even with $20 off each delivery I didn't think it was a good value.  The first one was Chinese -- I would just describe as disappointing.  The second was Mexican - I would describe as terrible.  

Is this the biggest problem in my life?  Seriously?  Complaining about food delivery?  If so, then I must be living a fairly good life.

I used Uber Eats once. Never again. I paid $165 for four meals which arrived cold after a 45-minute wait.

Your life doesn't sound bad to me. I've got neighbors that order food all day every day. It's like they never go to the grocery store. Not a single day goes by without multiple delivery people dropping something off at their house. I've never used a delivery service. Last time I got food delivered it was pizza and that was years ago before any Uber Eats or other services were in business.

Fortunately I'm only out $56. The Chinese food arrived quite hot. My bf was really unhappy with the dumplings, which had a very thick skin.

I have some neighbors who are the same way -- restaurant food order nearly every day. It's expensive!

I have never used DoorDash even though I have a gift card that I got from someone a couple of years ago!
