Hmm, I don't ever remember having to pay delivery fees back in the late 90s. I recall most places making a big point about "free delivery" in the advertising.

I started delivering in '96, when I went to college. All the big chains had fees by then, maybe some local places were holding out on free delivery, but even the mom and pop Chinese places had a delivery fee, they did actually give the whole thing to the driver though since we were paid under the table.
