I've seen so many replies saying something like this but none of you have explained why there was no delivery fee 20 years ago


Would it blow your mind if I told you the costs all went up, but instead of increasing the costs across the board they only tacked them onto delivery?

So it's crazy to think the business models all changed? Does it not make sense to pay less to pick up a pizza from their store then have someone drive it across town to you?

Would it blow your mind if I told you the price of a pizza has gone up across the board, not just on the delivery ones? My problem with your post isn't the idea that economics have changed over time, it's people like you acting as if someone is crazy to question delivery fees when it really wasn't so long ago that free delivery was the standard business model for ALL pizza chains.
