Transcript

Life is much too short to not be better worthy of a dream of being in a single night. So let's see if I can make it to my passion and my priority. And you know what? Let's throw some tier stamps in there too. Because here's the catch. I only have tier midnight to soak up the entire night. If I'm not on an airplane in Seat 12 B by 12AM, we have a problem. Tonight is WeHo Carnival, and, of course, I'm forgetting one thing, my ears. Thankfully, DoorDash can have me covered from every aspect of the evening, from last minute getting ready necessities to getting there and back with Lyft. WeHo Carnival is unlike anything I've ever experienced before. It's the most immaculate costumes, and the streets are a full frenzy of Halloween celebrations. DoorDash was handing out hydration and Wi Fi services, and I got the chance to join in on the phone and pass out some gift cards too and share the love of DoorDash with everyone at Halloweekend. And even though I could have been there all night long, my time had come. And trust me, when you're in need of an Irish exit, I know just the people. Plus, DoorDash and Lyft offer exclusive everyday benefits to help me save no matter where I'm off to. And the best news is I bad the most immaculate night followed by the most immaculate flight. Thank you, DoorDash and Lyft, for saving and spookifying my Halloween this season.
