Car Boot Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 For example, 10 pounds. And still a delivery charge. What if you live on your own? I would personally shop around, Amber. If one takeaway is expensive for delivery, take your business to another. Punish those who try to fleece you by boycotting their business! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOST if not all charge for lower prices, its not worth their while to deliver otherwise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
euclid Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 It's the latter. Minimum spend AND a delivery charge. The local (chinese) takeaways are between 2-4 miles away from me,the minimum spend is £8 for free delivery in a three mile radius for the nearest,i use the one 4 miles away who charge £1-£1.50p cos it is over three miles..or i usually fetch it myself....you also get a free portion of prawn crackers....for orders over £12 ...highly recommend https://www.bigfoodie.co.uk/menu-chinachinasheffield.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Resident Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 (edited) And then there is the tip for the driver? For the ones that don't try to short change you by pretending to run through coppers to build enough change.... I had a look on Just-Eat recently as I've moved across town and hadn't been shopping. There was a Greek place, aptly named 'The Greedy Greek Deli', £100 minimum order and £10 delivery https://imgur.com/a/ICXvX Anyway, to answer the question of "what if you live alone?" Three options 1. Invite a friend and split it 2. Get a partner and split it 3. Learn to cook. Edited December 19, 2017 by Resident Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmberLeaf Posted December 20, 2017 Author Share Posted December 20, 2017 (edited) buy 2 freeze the second I don’t think I’d want two takeaways in a month, or how ever long yo can freeze them for, which I can’t imagine is that long. I’d quite like to maintain my figure thanks. ---------- Post added 20-12-2017 at 07:10 ---------- For the ones that don't try to short change you by pretending to run through coppers to build enough change....

Out of them, option 3 is most probable, even tho I only own a microwave:hihi: Edited December 20, 2017 by AmberLeaf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrcharlie Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Do yourself a favour and cook your own Why line someone else's pockets Takeaways, I'm guessing you're referring to indian, pizza, Chinese etc etc Not Fish/Chips in which case your filling your belly with crap!! I worked in a fastfood takeaway whilst a student many years ago and know exactly what goes on behind the kitchen door!! If you all saw it too, you wouldn't eat it either, I promise you that! Besides, they pay virtually zero TAX hence why they've got the bloody big flash car out front. Bugger them, They'll get sod all from me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a great Christmas and a wonderful takeaway-free 2018 I do! I do! And I know your right. I'm actually a fan of Delia, because she's an ' old school ' cook. A couple of yrs ago, I was watching her Christmas series on YouTube, and did a load of baking. You too, have a great Christmas. They'll be no takeaways either, just healthy eating and some chocolate , lol. As I'm going out to eat on my Birthday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
