Gas prices have also played a huge part of cutbacks for UPS! and other companies.
Even food delivery places have begun to add on a "delivery fee" of $2.00, with a disclaimer this is in no way part of the delivery person's tip.
Take one of those famous pizza delivery places...running a special of "any pie, any number of toppings, any size" just $10...
extra cheese $2
delivery fee $2
taxes an add'l $1-$2
driver's tip $2- $3
that $10 "special" now has cost you almost $20......IF you go and get the pie yourself, it will cost you about $12 to $14.....plus your cost of the gas to get said pie....
