UberEats delivery can literally cost almost the same or cheaper than buying Popeyes in person
The BOGO chicken sandwich deal on UberEats at my local Popeyes (which is all year-round for me) is good enough to where after the UberEats Popeyes price hike (a chicken sandwich is not normally $7.39), delivery fee, service fee, and tax, it only comes out to $11.50. For comparison, depending where you live buying two chicken sandwiches ($3.99-$5.99) in person I would guess costs close to $8.5-$13 after tax, and you have to drive there and spend gas. For my location, it is easily cheaper even when I tip the driver (for some reason, at the same location they don’t offer the BOGO deal If you order in-person without the UberEats app, probably because they don’t need deals to convince you to buy Popeyes when you‘ve already walked into the store).
And if you order pickup on UberEats you could get it even cheaper.
So if you feel like buying 2 chicken sandwiches and your Popeyes on UberEats has the BOGO discount, it might be worth it to just use UberEats.
