DoorDash pivots from munchies, adds Lowe’s to its delivery basket

You can now get a hammer with your hamburger delivery. DoorDash added home improvement chain Lowe’s to the list of retailers on its app.

Users scrolling for late-night tacos will also be able to add lightbulbs, gardening kits, and other DIY tools to their cart, which will be available for delivery from 1.7K Lowe's stores across the US.

DoorDash has expanded from food delivery to everything delivery, listing dozens of retailers including Sephora, Best Buy, Target, and Petco.

Uber has partnered with many of those same retailers, and has also added a variety of services including package return drop-offs and flower deliveries as it tries to become an everything transportation app.

Amazon is the go-to for fast delivery convenience, but food delivery apps are encroaching on its territory with these retail partnerships.

Delta says the government shutdown will cost it $200 million in Q4

The 43-day government shutdown that ended last month will result in a $200 million ding for Delta Air Lines, the airline said in a filing on Wednesday.

That’s about $100,000 per shutdown-related canceled flight. (Delta previously said it canceled more than 2,000 flights due to FAA flight reductions.) When the company reports its fourth-quarter earnings, the shutdown will lop off about $0.25 per share.

Delta initially stayed calm about the shutdown, with CEO Ed Bastian stating in early October that the company was running smoothly and hadn’t seen any impacts at all. One historically long shutdown later, Delta wasn’t able to remain untouched.

The skies have since cleared, though, and Delta’s filing states that booking growth has “returned to initial expectations following a temporary softening in November.”

Delta’s shares were up over 2% as of Wednesday’s market open.
