I’m waiting for the day all these shitty delivery services come crashing down. But sadly I think there’s enough idiots out there to keep them in buisness.

That said these practices aren’t unique. Almost any place where you buy X + a service will charge a markup on the initial item + their service fee.

Am idiot, still use Instacart though because it saves me at least an hour a week (probably closer to two hours after accounting for shopping time and getting ready to leave) for $20, which is worth it to me

That’s life.

I pay a person to clean my house every two weeks. Totally worth it.
