This $60 is different from the last $60. These companies definitely want you to see the dollar amounts like it's all the same. The previous credit was a much better option as I don't use these services often. If you can get past the markups, then you are often left with lukewarm food that is of not the same quality. Mexican delivered home just isn't the same. Hardened queso, soggy entrees, watered margaritas, etc. I'd rather cook at home or physically go to a restaurant at that point. Not to mention that if your meal doesn't have a tip large enough for your Dasher, you could be waiting awhile. All while your food sits. There's a reason why this stuff requires so much paid sponsorship.

The credit was great for when I was in a pinch maybe wanting a quick meal, in a different city without transportation, etc and/or I could get it all, completely free of charge. Now it's just one more thing on the balancing act of credits so that I'll be more engaged with the product, using it every month. Honestly, it will probably be a better business decision for them in the end as my use of it probably wasn't their idea goal. Doesn't mean I have to like it.
