Because you're paying $11 in fees.

Honestly if you order more than 2-3 times a month it just makes sense to get the $10/month dashpass or whatever it's called. That way at least you're never paying delivery fee, and the fees are usually cut by 2/3rds.

That way you're mostly just paying the tip.

And they regularly have coupons and shit, like right now until June 30th every order is $5 off if you enter the coupon code. Which means for a smaller order you're covering tax/tip entirely with that savings making the cost of delivery the same as going to get it yourself.

Because of leftist politics and them the rate of inflation has far surpassed the rise in wages. But this will never be brought up in the public discourse and will never change for the better. Things only get worse over time that is the law of entropy.

Once a system is put in place it is at its peak and only declines over time until it is broken and rebuilt and a new peak begins. We are at the bottom half of the final slope of modern day capitalism. Soon we will completely break and a new system will be built upon the ashes and maybe our children or childrens children will be able to enjoy the mcdonalds dollar menu again.

It's not a location thing, nor is it a "shock of discovering how much food costs" thing. Door Dash adds a flat % upcharge to the menu price of ALL items on all fast food locations, on top of whatever charges they tack on at they end. You can realize this extremely easily if you've been to the location in question in person even once.

>> No.16289418

>>16289400
Nope, restaurants have the choice themselves, THEY set the prices, not doordash, however doordash DOES charge them for use of their service, so unless they want to make less money (or potentially even lose money) they're in-essence forced to charge more than the standard menu price.

How much more is up to the restaurant. Both locations mentioned here >>16284936 have identical in-store pricing, but different doordash menu prices.

Though I imagine if they were both owned by the same franchisee it would be a different matter.
