Do you use delivery services for delivering restaurant/fast food?

We have food delivered at least one evening per week. We live 3 blocks from a main street here in Toronto, ST Clair Avenue. I pay for the food out of my profits on the Toronto Stock Exchange trading I do every week day. I use my CIBC debit card and order using the appropriate app for Swiss Chalet, Pizza Pizza, Montana's, Shawarma, or Thai Lime. Time to get the food at our front door ? 30 minutes or less.

In Toronto there are at least 5 thousand e bike couriers who make a good living delivering food and or alcohol or marijuana to people's homes.

Marijuana ??? :oops::oops:
 

Food delivery people don't come out this far even paying for delivery... except Pizza, and Indian take-away restaurants .. and I don't like that....

years ago we got Pizza a couple of times.. but it's incredible the price of Take-away Pizza now.. I would never pay that. I'm not a great lover of Pizza anyway but on the occasion I do fancy it, I can get a really great quality one from M&S for a fraction of the price of Domino's et al
 
No. Never. Not once. What is the point of ordering food, paying extra for delivery, and then it is cold or somehow compromised when you get it?

Yes of course. Here in Canada the growing, distribution, and retail sales of Marijuana HAS BEEN LEGAL , since 2018. If you are over age 18 it is perfectly legal to use it. Its a big business here in Canada, with a number of multi million dollar Corporations who employ thousands of people, AND the Federal and Provincial Governments get BILLIONS of dollars per year from the taxes levied on sales. And, contrary to the scare mongering from the uniformed, our country hasn't changed much at all. If you don't want or like the product, feel free to NOT buy it.

The bike couriers also deliver alcohol from the Provincial liquor and beer stores to homes. Obviously the computer app uses a program to identify the buyer's name age and address before the buyer can place their order. The computer app builds in the payment for the product, which is the same as if you bought the beer at The Beer Store, in person, and adds the payment to the courier at the time the buyer makes the purchase. The delivery person brings the goods to your door, rings or knocks and hands the delivery to you. NO cash changes hands, it is all electronic payment.

Try this. Go to the Uber Eats UK website, and do a search for your town location. Or Skip The Dishes, or a similar type of home delivery service. You may be surprised. JIMB In Toronto.
 
Living in a rural area, or small town that's just not an option. However our daughter uses delivery services for meals, and groceries.
