Because when I want to eat lunch, I'll choose the place that jacks up the price of a Baconator at noon. Genius!

Although I fully agree with you, don't under estimate the stupidity of people and their money when it comes to food. I never use these apps or really eat at fast food joints.

There is a boat load of places that charge more for items listed on Skip, Doordash, Ubereats etc. People who get their food delivered through these apps can save hundreds, if not thousands of dollars a year simply by calling their favorite place or ordering through the online website and platform, normally rooted through one of the above platforms.

The same thing happens with Uber and surge pricing. I can't tell you how often friends of mine have loved nothing more than paying extra for someone's Honda Civic during surge pricing when a normal taxi is just as close and costs lower.

People love paying more for this garbage. It hurts, is painful but they kinda like it!
