It's a time saver for sure. My husband and I use it a lot though over the past 2 months we've made conscious efforts to cook at home more for both money saving (it's fucking expensive) and to reduce our calorie intake.
That being said, it's really nice to just press a quick button, and then start sweeping, doing laundry, vacuuming, taking out the trash, etc, and then food just shows up that can now be conveniently cleaned up quickly as well.
Cooking yourself not only takes away time from the other chores kicking them to getting done later, but also now adds chores as well with the dishes.
I reason that something has to give between work, fitness, chores, schooling, sleep, and downtime. So far it's been my sleep, but I don't feel guilty using food delivery services to get some gaming/social time back in as well.
Thanks, that does make sense. I just finished raking leaves, walked 2 miles today for fitness, cooked dinner, and cleaned up. And there's still more to do...
If it wasn't for the tip I would honestly do it too. But I hate tipping non-wait staff so I'll go pick a pizza up just to avoid it.
