[Electronics-talk] getting your drinks at fastfood places

[Brent Harding]

I think with something like Uber, you can do  a stop of a couple minutes 
under one fare. You just end up paying the time that it takes, but it is 
cheaper than two minimum fares. I could probably use Subway's app to order 
it from my phone, get an Uber, and go pick it up under one fare.
