I had a co-worker who would use food delivery services a few times a week. He wasn't rich, either. Couldn't wrap my head around it.

Two weeks later, without using the service, I get a credit notification for over a $125 order to a city 150+ miles away that I have never been to, to a restaurant I have never been to, delivered to a hotel chain I don't use. I call the restaurant to notify them, they say I have to call GrubHUb. It took over an hour to get with a GrubHub rep. By then the food was delivered, the restaurant lost their money on the order and I had to put a hold on my credit card. No apologies.
In that same time Uber Eats and DoorDash revenues and market share have increased, especially DoorDash.

Round Table Pizza Large King Arthur Supreme
DoorDash (with Dashpass): $37.79 + $5.62 taxes and fees
Uber Eats (with Uber One): $37.79 + $9.36 taxes and fees
GrubHub (with GrubHub+): $37.79 + $5.61 taxes and fees
Delivery from Roundtable website: $35.99 + $10.70 taxes and fees
Surprisingly even though each delivery service marked up the price of the pizza by $2 DoorDash and GrubHub were still cheaper than delivery from the restaurant directly because they avoided a $6.50 delivery fee.
Uber Eats was the worst option here which tracks with my previous experience. And shockingly it would have cost an additional $10 if I didn't have Uber One, which is basically highway robbery because at that point we're talking about 60% fees, markups, and taxes.
