So to preface, I only really use doordash when I’m sick and I want to get food without spreading whatever I have. So I don’t open the app much. I just noticed that dominos is on the doordash app in my area. Why in the world would anyone ever doordash a dominos pizza when they already do delivery anyways? That just seems like a great way to burn a bunch of extra money for a worse service.

    Fuck DD as a company, but…

    Usually if I use DD it’s via company benefits so I don’t even have to pay for it - that’s one reason.

    Some places near me only let you order delivery by phone and I have to call like 10 times to get through because it’s busy.

    Some places near me just schluff delivery off to DD anyway, so I might as well use DD to begin with.

    As others have said, some places also won’t deliver to me. I’m about 5 minutes outside of city limits so a lot of in-house delivery places refuse to deliver to me even if I offer extra money (I’ve tried). DD doesn’t seem to care about that extra distance.

    Related, Dominoes won’t deliver to me, but they will deliver across the street from me to a parking lot if I place a pin. It is more dangerous for their driver to go there and have to take an unprotected left back to the store versus a right from where I live, but 🤷‍♂️
