I got this fun fee after trying to order takeout from Buffalo Wild Wings (yes I’m naming and shaming). How exactly does adding a dollar help you operate takeout? It’s literally less work than waiting on a table. This is nothing more than a shameful cash grab to pad profits.
I cancelled my order and got local street tacos instead.
EDIT: Look what I found this morning, lol https://www.today.com/food/restaurants/buffalo-wild-wings-takeout-fee-backlash-complaint-rcna90228
You’re wrong.
I’m wrong? Was it the part where I sourced a website showing that a container costs less than 5p or was it the part where I mentioned the fact that restaurants who actually know how to do business will go to a wholesaler to purchase containers on mass?
I’d like to know where you think I’m wrong
You’re quoting British prices to an American topic, you clearly don’t understand how any part of the wholesaler process works, you don’t know that it’s en masse, not on mass, and you don’t seem to understand that the container isn’t the only cost associated with takeout orders.
I don’t live in america, I can only source prices and facts that are local to me.
What about the cost of eating in, because I don’t think you’re considering the price of cleaning and serving.
Can we factor in napkins? Again pennies. These are things they already have in the restaurant, along with sauces so that is already in the price of the business. The company doesn’t need to give you cutlery, so take that out but if you want to include it again, barely anything. Being generous let’s say it costs them a grand total of 0.30 cents, they’re still making a profit. Takeout costs are minimal. I’m not arguing a company can’t charge, they can do whatever they want it’s their business but saying it’s to cover the cost of containers/napkins/cutlary it’s just plain wrong.
Why are we bringing up grammar? I never attacked you for grammar, that’s pretty shitty All I asked was for you to clarify how I was wrong, because just saying “you’re wrong” isn’t really selling me on it
I agree comrade. Fuck anyone who tries to turn a profit.
Edit: and I never brought up grammar. I brought up you trying to use a phrase you clearly don’t understand.
What are you talking about? I literally just said I don’t care. The company can charge whatever they want just like people can choose not to eat there
Mf really pulled out the “typing error, argument invalid”
That’s not a typing error. That’s bone apple tea.
