Gopuff

Gopuff overcharges 150% for convenience items compared to in-store prices, making it the worst value on this list. A standard $2 bag of chips runs $5 on the app, plus a $3.99 delivery fee, a $1.50 service fee, and an expected tip—pushing a $2 purchase to over $12. This markup is triple the typical rival's 50% surcharge, and #2 Swiggy's Instamart charges only 20% more than retail. With average delivery times of 34 minutes, the speed advantage also falls short of competitors like 7Now, which delivers in 22 minutes for similar items. Gopuff's model relies on impulse buys, not sustainable value.
