That is the the apps are your friend.

There are different deals on the app all day and many different locations deals change daily.

Right now My Mcdonalds I can get a Big Mac meal for $6 or 4 for $5 with a double cheese, 4 pc mcnugget, sm fries and sm drink.



This. It's always hilarious watching people order the "value meals" instead of just ordering the items separately and/or using the app. Always use the app.

Who pays this in these cities?


Not only are they paying it, a lot of these are being delivered by door dash. So add another $20.

I am fine with the price, maybe fatasses think twice about getting it or just order the burger without the drink and fries from now on.

I hope all the shite goes up and the fatties loose some weight, maybe then our healthcare premiums will go down.

I went to Five Guys a month or two ago and got a little bacon cheeseburger, smaller fry and a regular drink and it was over $20. I don't remember exactly, but I think it was 21 or 22 bucks for that.

Just wait til California's $20 minimum wage kicks in April 1st.

Coming to Chicago, New York, and other liberal cities soon after.

Middle class is squeezed out by this admins policy and local politicians are saying "Hold my beer"

Well, he went ahead and purchased the Big Mac meal in spite of the price, so why should he complain?

McDonalds, like everyone else will charge whatever they can for their product

Oil companies, like everyone else will charge whatever they can for their product.

Big Pharma, like everyone else will charge whatever they can for their product.

Inner City Convenience stores, like everyone else will charge whatever they can for their product.

Grocery chains, like everyone else will charge whatever they can for their product.

The Healthcare Industry, like everyone else will charge whatever they can for their product.

So maybe keep your mouth shut the next time some of these big Corporations report record profits.

The fact that they charge that much for a tasteless burger doesn't shock me as much as the fact that many people are still willing to pay that much.
I always said, put a McDonald's beef patty up against the competition's beef patties for a blindfolded taste test (just the patty) and I'll bet the McDonald's patty comes out last all the time.
They say it's 100% beef, but maybe it's from something that identifies as beef.

What we need to do is raise the minimum wage so that people can afford those value meals.


Minimum wage should be $50/hr, that'll fix everything, even school loan debt could be paid off by all the grads with gender studies degrees.

I suspect this is in areas where there is an increased state (or city) minimum wage.

Somebody's gotta pay the $15 an hour to the Zoomer sitting on their cell phone taking your order.

If I’m paying 16$ for a hamburger it damn sure isn’t going to be McDonald’s
