>$30 just for the delivery fee, a daily income of a well off family back in 1998

$30/day is $10,950 per year, which in 1998 was only $100 more than the poverty line for a household of 2.[1]

I agree it's a lot of money for a delivery fee, but it's just not true that that's the daily income of a well-off family in 1998.
