I’m in Canada, when I order pizza for my family of 3 it comes out to like $65+ with tax and delivery, it’s insane. Took them to burger king the other day, we got 3 meals and a couple of apple turnovers and it came out to $50+, shit is insane.
I generally order only when I can’t. Like when the day has been a hectic disaster, it’s 20 minutes from dinner, I haven’t had a chance to go to the store or cook, and the kids gotta eat. If it was just me alone I’d survive in crackers
You’re not going to want to hear this, but to survive going forward and not be constantly ordering take out or fast food, we all have to do better in planning ahead. The world is full of poverty traps, and keeping people too busy to cook for themselves is part of the plan. Batch meals, soups, leftovers.
Yeah. During the pandemic I realized fuck eating out. Why is the main public activity going to a fucking restaurant anyway? We need more museums. Like, lots more.
I will say tho, fast food salads (pick up not delivery) are worth it. I bought a $25 salad from a deli chain & said this is too expensive. So next week I spent $20 on salad ingredients & made a salad. I didn’t feel like a salad for a couple days & all ingredients wilted.
You gotta order online and use their apps and newsletters it can cut the price by half if not more. They are making their prices punitive for not using their apps now. Domino’s should be about $8 a pizza.
Maaan!! That’s crazy prices! Have you ever tried buying a frozen marg pizza and putting ur own toppings on. That’s what I do and it usually costs way less with minimal effort.

Tfw burger king costs same as sit down
Nah man, sit downs have doubled in price too. I took them to a sit down place a few months back and it came out to like $150
Bro 50€ a person is getting into michelin star territory over here
I assume it includes stuff like tax and tip. $110 x 1.13 tax x 1.18 tip = $147.
Tax is always included in the EU, so if you see a € price it’s with tax
Any waiter that had a $100 table, and only got one dollar as a tip, would definitely spit in your food the next time you showed up.
What it’s not $1. It’s 18%. Those are multiplications, not addition.
$1.18 wouldn’t be 18%. The math is pretty simple here, 18% of $100 would be $18. I’d just give the driver a $20.
It’s times 1.18, or 18%. It’s an easy way to add percentages on a calculator. They’re not getting a $1.18 tip, they’re getting a $22.37 tip
Damn dawg you must be real sitting
Just prepare your own food at this point?..

I genuinely wish I was well off enough to have a “fuck it, it’s only $65” attitude lol.
We meal prep/etc because, if we don’t, we’ll starve.

They’re giving you a discount via app because they’re collecting your data
Oh for sure, but the alternative is getting scammed. 😔
You’re still getting scammed it’s just less immediately obvious
In Romania a pizza is $4-6 for a small one and for a large one $8-10
What’s that 20$ per pizza. 3 pizzas? That’s pricy pizza. Is it good pizza at least?
Nah…
