Figure just on 10 pizza bags, not unreasonable for a busy night, and theres $1,000. Also, uniforms for delivery folks - tshirts, hats, and jackets with company logo for the colder nights so the customer knows who's at their door.
They chose to keep their prices the same for the customers who chose to pick up or eat in, rather than burden them with the costs that are incurred by the place to get your pizza from oven to your door.

Thank you for your explanation, I understand it better now. That makes much more sense. I sort of feel like a douche too but hey, you live and learn. I still think it sucks only because it isn't clear and I'm sure I can't be the only who thought that way too. It's too confusing, they should clarify that better because I'm sure a ton of drivers are getting shafted because people think the Delivery Charge goes to them.
