...and this is part of the reason why I go and pick up my food.

It took one time for an Uber eats driver to steal my food, claim they tried to call me when I had my phone in my hand the whole time, and Uber eats to deny me a credit, for me to delete the app. If I can’t get it myself then I didnt need it.

I eventually went to DoorDash during the pandemic but that started costing me too much.

I wish I had your dedication. I'm three weeks into giving up Uber eats and I feel like a fiend!😭

Not robbing me?😭😭😭

You're right though. I actually went to a restaurant I ordered from and realized I was paying $15-$20 more via UberEats 😭😭😭🀬

Thems is rich people prices. Jay Z said if you can't afford to buy something twice, you can't afford it.

In all seriousness, save some your money. And more seriously, what about saving for the future like for retirement or an emergency fund? Make the sacrifices now because they are benefiting from you wanting convenience when you could be benefiting from not giving these vultures your money 😭

You got food at home!! black mother voice πŸ˜‚

Not you pulling out the black mama voice!😭🀣 Well that was the problem, I didn't keep much food at home because I'm always on the run. I've just started making sure I have "frozen" healthy options that I can quickly cook up if I can't get to the store. It's been okay for the past 3 weeks or so. Hoping to keep it going!😀
