Uber Eats Meal Prep

Are you running behind on cooking for the week? Is it dinner time and you don't feel like cooking? Are you wondering what you are going to eat for lunch at work tomorrow? Do you feel like eating out, but don't want to pay the price? Well, I have an awesome lifehack for you! I call it Uber Eats Meal Prep. This lifehack typically saves me upwards of 50% on my order.


How does it work?

Uber Eats often has Buy One Get One Free deals. They also commonly have free items after spending a certain amount, for example - a free appetizer after spending $30. Typically, I open the Uber Eats app and scroll through looking for all of the Buy One Get One Free deals. While I am scrolling, I also keep an eye out for any additional discounts like free items or even just simple ones, like $5 off of $20. Once I have identified what places have Buy One Get One Free deals, I choose which one sounds best and gives the most amount of meals, for the least amount of money. For maximum savings, I recommend ordering for pickup to avoid delivery fees and any delivery driver tips you would normally add.


My Recent Example

Last week, I used my Uber Eats Meal Prep lifehack at a restaurant called Zullee Mediterranean Grill. I took advantage of a Buy One Get One Free Gyro Sandwich that came with a side. I ordered 4 Gyros in total, so my wife and I each had one for dinner and one for lunch the following day. I added an extra side of Taziki for 99 cents in order to hit the $30 minimum in order to take advantage of free hummus & pita. Here is my exact order:


As you can see, this order would have normally cost me $72.80. Instead, I got everything for $31.28. That is 57% off! With this specific order, I got 4 full meals and an appetizer. The price per meal works out to $7.82. If you opt for cheaper food options than Zullee, you can get the price per meal even lower. Especially when you consider you don't have any cooking or dishes to clean, Uber Eats Meal Prep can be a very useful tool.


I hope you found this valuable and keep an eye out for Buy One Get One Free deals on Uber Eats. They can be very economical when you just are not quite feeling up to cooking.
