Learned the term recently and really enjoy it, subscription fatigue is the feeling we all have had now where we are just over how everything is subscription based.

Which one was the last straw or most annoying/frustrating to you?

Correction: The service I referred to was renamed to Ober One.

Kinda. Basically you pay for occasional coupons and credits on UberEats, and a (5%) discount for every Uber ride.

For 70 MNX (~3.5 USD) a month there is no delivery fee on anything you order. It's obvious their business model is to charge an obscene fee to then roll out a "better" option. But hey, it's been convenient nonetheless.

I end up ordering from the same few places when I'm on my lowest, so their system usually gives me 100-200 MXN (~5-10 USD) discounts on those specific restaurants. The subtotal almost never exceeds 600 MXN (~30 USD).

Succinctly, it's not free free. It's a 5% discount on Uber rides, and a variable 15-30% discount for two orders a month.
