I’m not surprised they would do this for PR attention. The entire DD business model is fascinating. I don’t know their economics well enough to understand if it’s sustainable, but apparently I can get a Big Mac and fries delivered to my home for about $22, over 2x the cost of buying from McD directly.
The idea of a four party transaction just for me to eat a sandwich is nuts — me, McD, DoorDash, and the driver. I suppose it’s convenient if you’re willing to spend that much dime. The fact that they’re in business tells me people are even lazier than I imagined.
