A Chennai journalist highlighted the significant price difference between online and in-store purchases of the same products, sparking a debate on social media.
A journalist from Chennai recently highlighted the high cost of convenience when ordering food to be delivered at home. She brought attention to the significant price disparity between items listed on restaurant menus and those on food delivery apps like Swiggy.
Online delivery services charge commission from the restaurants and stores which might explain the difference in the app prices vs the in-store prices.
Priyanka Thirumurthy called the prices ridiculous and said that she had placed the order for guests and would rather either visit the cafe in person or make herself some bun butter jam at home instead of ordering via Swiggy.
