On some of those late nights, especially when I picked up Indian food, I'd be hungry enough to genuinely consider this

I just keep using their 50% off "new customer" coupons over and over through various means, they don't make a profit as-is and they definitely don't make a profit off me

Taking advantage of their coupons it usually costs about the same driving myself and ordering directly or sometimes cheaper (including tip)

I used to do that with the meal delivery services (like hello fresh) mostly to see where the quality and portion sizes were at. Even when they were heavily discounted the math didn’t math though, I could still go to a grocery store and get more for less. You pay a lot for convenience no matter what when it comes to food.

For meal prep services they definitely charge for convenience but the meal does end up costing less than eating something comparable at a restaurant or delivery. What I liked most about it was the you could indulge in variety with the exact portions already provided so you don’t have to buy a bunch of different spices that accumulate and loose flavor over time. It was also convenient for single serving meals when a lot of ingredients at the store are not packaged that way in the US. Agreed, convenience costs though, for me delivery services were worth the compromise when I was single.
