Mcdonald deliveries5/4/2023 ![]() Other than a few recommended upsells that I didn't want, DoorDash didn’t have a way to add another item without navigating back to the full menu and losing all the payment and delivery information I’d entered. My total was $13.28 before tax, tip, and a $1.34 service fee I hadn't been aware of - short of the $15 minimum I’d need to reach to use the $5 off code. Both were listed with the caveat If sold out, Chef recommendation, which was kind of exciting. And now it was already 12:19.ĭoorDash had the item I planned to order, a medium Big Mac combo with a diet Coke ($10.69), front and center on its site, so I added that and a 4-piece chicken nuggets with sweet and sour sauce for $2.69. The second location was closer, but it would take longer: 26-36 minutes. It would come from a McDonald’s half a mile away that I used to walk by when the F train decided to go express on my way home from work and I’d have to get off one stop early and walk the rest of the way in heels that I haven’t looked at since March. DoorDash delivery would be free on an order over $10. 9 miles away that I’d previously walked by on trips to Other Half Brewing. Uber Eats had a 99-cent delivery fee and estimated delivery in 15-25 minutes from a location. Without actually doing the math, I figured it’d be six of one, half-dozen of the other. The Uber Eats option had a code for $5 off and DoorDash had $5 off $15 or more. Back on the delivery page, I could choose between Uber Eats or DoorDash, two platforms I had never used. I checked out the available deals, but none seemed worth going through a necessary extra step: downloading and ordering through the app. I went directly to McDonald's site and allowed it to use my current location, which I never do. I began the order process at noon, because noon seems to approximate lunch time, which I’ve recently celebrated as early as 10am and as late as not at all. ![]() Bah dah bah bah bah: Ordering, wait time, and delivery experience
