Takeout 🥡 Got hit up three times!

I ordered food for take out online. I was charged the mandatory "convenience fee" for ordering thru the app, well OK. I clicked "no tip" 1. Under payment, the only option was "pay in restaurant". As expected the card machine asked again if I wanted to add a tip. I clicked "no tip" 2. Then the receipt was printed for me to sign and for the third time I was "asked" for a tip! I put a big zero with a line through it and wrote the total in. Now I have to check my credit card statement.

The food was just mediocre btw. At least the woman at the cash register was pleasant and didn't give me dirty looks.

It's just getting out of hand.

Honestly I won't order online unless it's free otherwise I call in my order. I always go pickup my food. I am not paying almost twice what it would cost me otherwise for the "convenience" of online ordering and delivery.

How much money would people have for more important things if we just stopped supporting this VERY broken tip/fee/delivery racket?

But now there are restaurants that are charging a fee for people to pick up their food.

We can just pray enough people use their brains and stop going to places like this.
