if i was to start delivering fast food for hungover people at 10 bucks a go on the weekend would anyone use it.... is it even legal?

i imagine it'd be legal, so long as you charged GST. did your books, all that. When i was in boarding school, we used to call taxis and have them collect maccas for us - they just added on the normal fare for the time they spent from call to delivery.

When I was on the Gold Coast the other weekend I stayed in an apartment and when I looked in their brochure it had this sort of service, external company that will visit any takeaway shop on the list and bring it to you for a fee... was $6.50 from memory, so definitely is legal.

It's an interesting business idea but would you really be making much money at "0 a delivery?
- I'd imagine you would need insurance.
- Vehicle running costs would be high (eg. fuel - ".50L). Imagine a maccas delivery in palmo followed up by one in stuart park.
- Labor cost? How much will you be paying yourself?
- How would you be collecting payment? Are you pre-paying for clients then seeking reimbursement?

You would really need to have a good look at your costs and go from there.

look at your over head then / by 8 = how much your worth and what you should be charging
but I think you need to add 1 extra product to your services = booz

as for the legal side your just doing a mate a favour and it just so happens that he owes you $20 bucks. Charge each person seperatly even if there at the same house

Cos pissed people would never ring you up and get you to go get fifty bucks worth of food and then say they didn't order it when you arrived.

ring up a pizza place, and work for them casually.
