Stop using DoorDash and other delivery services. They're a huge scam and you end up paying double for cold food that someone might have tampered with.
This. They are predatory to their drivers, their customers, and the restaurants they almost blackmail into using them. Awful awful company.
The trouble is in England if you don't use deliveroo or whatever, the only food you can get on takeaway (delivered or collection) is kebabs or pizza. The main restaurants tend not to bother with their own takeaway.
Realistically, how far are you from the shops? And would it 1. Take any longer for you to just walk there to pick it up? 2. Do you often NEED to save the extra time it takes to get there and back?
If the answers to both are mostly no, then just don't use delivery and call ahead and get pickup instead. Going for a walk is great!
I used to live 25-30 minute round trip from the shops, still never ordered delivery because it's not any faster (usually slower), not sure why people are willing to pay extra for it, and screw over the restaurants in the process.
Would actually like to know other's point of view on this.
