Our Verdict
There is a fee if your order is under $10, but should be able to order the half pound beef for $10.50 to avoid that. Still need to pay taxes and tip for the driver.
No joke. Just received chicken wrap I ordered and only half of the wrap came in. Doesn’t look like the bag was opened as it had tape on it.
I just can’t get these sorts of ad-hoc food delivery. How do you know just what these people, who are not employees, have zero benefits, and are in a dead-end job on a road straight to welfare-dependency, and doing these jobs for god-knows-what motivation, are doing with your food before they schlep it over to you for a few pennies?
In an attempt to prevent this, most fast food companies now seal bags with a tamper-evident sticker. They didn’t do this at first, but now most do. However many regular restaurant take out orders are not neccesarily sealed….
i always assume that they’re spit in my food (or worse) before it was dropped off. The worse is when you order a drink.. just to realize the restaurant took the drink out of a bottle and put into an open plastic cup ugh
Not everyone is like that but I totally understand the feeling. Just think of the things going on in the restaurant kitchen before you get the food in front of you. The driver is the least of the worry.
The fact that you always assume this says more about you than it does about anyone else.
dude it’s a joke.. calm down lol jesus fucking
It always surprises me when folks who are likely far from rich (we’re on a deal site after all) show so much contempt for those lower on the socioeconomic ladder.
Get a grip. People who are low income can still be incredibly decent and respectable.
That is good point. Also like to add delivery drivers are not all in the lower economic class some are going thru hard or difficult financial times or in some cases just want extra income. Just as you mentioned same reason we are on this site. Just baffling how some people are so closed minded.
This (main) comment is HA-LLARIOUS!… if it wasn’t for these people who -we don’t know their motivations to work those jobs-, there wouldn’t be any delivery…. What gets me most is how people show concern for the food in a sealed (or folded) bag, when the cars delivering them are -not- the most clean cars (regardless of the race/job/social stas driving ). … Not to sound bitter but obviously the front end never seems to know the back end (or how dirty it is) because they’re blinded by the discounts and offers they look for from a deal site (getting an offer but worried about peoples’ cooties!).. ha ha ha!!… Now, think about the robot boxes delivering tasties..do you think they sanitize them every min? LOL!!!
I ordered King’s Hawaiian® Brown Sugar Bacon Turkey, they delivered Classic Beef & Cheddar! I was hungry so I ate it and didn’t complain; but wtf!
is the delivery person going to expect a $5-10 tip for delivering the sandwich?
The driver’s tip is not just for doing a good job getting food delivered to the doorstep but for all the expenses including time spent, miles, waiting on the food, gas, car wear and tear, risk of getting into a crash, etc. These delivery companies pay like couple bucks as base so the tip is what the driver gets for all of the expenses and risk, including profit. They call it tip but it really is not what it is, these companies pin the driver against the customer instead of actually paying the driver a fair wage. It sucks. The worst is getting to a restaurant or a drive thru and have to wait 30 plus minutes to get the delivery. It is hard to think about all of this as a customer.
Which is why I would much rather have food cost more upfront so that I don’t have to think about all of that stuff every single time I want to order a freakin’ burger.
I do not need a whole SOB story about the driver, I am not running a charity service and nobody is forcing them to do the job, I am just trying to figure out if I should do this deal. If I am going to piss somebody off because I did not pay them some ungodly perceived value above their base salary that they think they deserve for bringing me a sandwich then I will pass. They can just have $0 of my money instead.
This deal is for delivery. If I could just pick it up myself instead then I would. Everybody thinks they deserve more than they get paid and reality is there is a lot of supply relative to demand for these drivers which is why their base salary is so low. These drivers accept this low paying job and then try to sucker the customer in to compensating them more than they are worth in the market. Uber drivers do this too, they try to undercut other drivers by accepting low fares but then get pissed at the customer for not doing large tip. It is not as victimhood situation as some make it out to be for the drivers.
you should expect if you don’t tip a person will be paid between $2 and $4 for the job of delivering your order from the restaurant to the location.
it likely won’t pay more than $8/hour after expenses, if that much.
some markets, doordash will offer incentives/better orders to make their overall experience better/pay more, but that’s not a guarantee.
important to know that as independent contractors, they choose to accept these offers, they’re more than capable of declining.
I would consider the tip a ‘bid’ as opposed to a tip. But there’s also a chance that your ‘bid’ will be taken by the same person would have done the same job at the same quality without a tip.
it sucks. I wish they just paid them wages and held them to quality standards, but I can imagine the math just doesn’t work out for that.
$10.17 for the 1/2 pound including extras. No fee. Minus $8.65 for sandwich. With tax came to 3.45. Plus, no tip. Not that great.
3.45 for a sandwich delivered to your door not including tip is not that great? I wanna know where you live and think this is bad value.
For some reason when I think of Arbys I think of the USSoccer Goalie Hope Solo
