Fast food is about 30% more expensive if you refuse the app.
Personal experience:
Tim Hortons
Wendy's:
That's always the case in the beginning with those apps. And once they have market dominance and/or the shareholders want their ROI, they increase price and hope people still use it. See Uber for example.
This is why I hope to god when I'm living in my own we never get to the point where apps become 100% required to purchase shit from a store. I'd rather starve and miss a day's worth of meals than order off an app.
Grocery shopping and food prep is always an option. Cheaper and healthier too.
If you have time to browse Lemmy, you got time to throw some shit in an air fryer/insta pot/slow cooker.
That I can totally agree, as someone who actually enjoys cooking. If I could get my family on board, I wouldn't mind getting their help making and freezing meals on the weekend for days when we just don't feel like cooking or my mother's back is bothering her or whatever.
My bachelor days I'd make a tray of lasagna or a pot of beef stew and I had meals for almost 5 days. I will say that I was really sick of lasagna or beef stew by day 4 though.
Looks like you'll be foraging for food in the woods
Yeah, I hate that. At an old job, sometimes people would go around and take lunch orders before running to Wendy's, Hate Chicken, or Chipotle. I'd way rather give my coworker cash and let them have the bonuses and discounts and crap while I maintain the privacy afforded to cash-only Chads. It's still an L though because we're still giving the companies money.
