Delivery vs Pickup Calculator (delivery fee vs pickup discount and your time)

How it works

Delivery total = menu price + delivery fee − delivery coupon. Pickup total = menu price − pickup discount + travel cost. Your time = trip minutes ÷ 60 × value of an hour. Picking up saves money when delivery total − pickup total is larger than the value of the trip time; the break-even trip time is the longest trip for which picking up still pays.

FAQ

Why count my time?

A 20-minute round trip has a cost even if you walk. Valuing it shows whether a ₩2,000 discount is worth the trip.

What if I pass the restaurant anyway?

Then set the trip time and travel cost to 0 — pickup is almost always cheaper.
