Thanks. I suspected something fishy on that. Your area only charges about a buck less than our area.

Ok

I concede that prices vary

But $14 was to high except maybe in california

Do you really think, the leftist Biden admin would target NY and LA the most?

Inflation is still hitting certain states particularly hard

Some parts of the U.S. are particularly feeling the impact of sky-high prices from inflation.

Had to take the wife to ER yesterday. She's ok but we stayed until midnight and we were starving. The only place open was McDonalds so I swung in and ordered a Big Mac Combo. FOURTEEN BUCKS for a regular size burger fries and drink! WooHoo let's hear it for the Biden/Harris Economy! No wonder half of Americans run out of money by the end of the month.

shit food and it's Like Fine Dinning cost.. Wow!

When I was in HS, I used to get FIVE McDonalds hamburgers with tax for an even BUCK.

McDonald's was my frst job at 15 or 16 years old.

It employed all of the High School kids from the surrounding area.

And that was basically the scenario for all of the different fast food places.

It was actually a pretty fun job back then.

If you go into a McD's now it's all adult Mexicans working. All speaking Spanish back there.

''Americana'' itself has gradually eroded in this regard.

You guys 'boycotting' the APP?

The APP deals are pretty good most of the time.

Which just proves you have absolutely zero idea how inflation works. And how much money it actually costs them to produce one Big Mac....even with the cost of property and salary built in...Hint...it's not 14 bucks.

You don't like it?..suck it up and starve..until you get home.

I was just reading this from CNBC about Executives saying prices are too high.

I think they knew all along. But didn't care because people will continue to buy their food - even if it is expensive!
Well, sure...but I think the number of people who used to buy at McDonald's has risen! People are going elsewhere, or cooking at home.

Again, they have to meet the supply and demand. How do you think they have to pay their delivery trucks? How are they suppose to pay for the food that comes into the store, so it can be served to the people out the door? They have to pay their employees. The minium wage at $25/hour hurt them. Because, they had to raise the prices to meet the demands of paying these employees at that wage! (There is much more...)

A Whataburger, larger fires and drink are $10.

As noted, you were boned.

Man, I missed Dave Thomas!

If you MarathonMike are spending $14-$18 for a Combo Meal then you simply are doing it wrong.

The APP has all kind of great deals, breakfast and Lunch, at MANY Fast Food Places.

Quit bitching about paying $14 when you could have paid $5-$8, easily.

Depends on where you live.

In northern Missouri a large cup of regular McDonald's coffee was $1.39.

Here in town is $2.19.

Stick with the Happy Meal for $5 bucks or the Meal Deal for $5 bucks...

It's like when they say they paid $5.39 for a gallon of gas, but refuse to post the proof by simply taking a screen shot of "Gas Buddy"

They know they are lying and worse, they then call us liars.

We know a few on here that do just that....

Ranting about stuff and is not backing up with any proof.

Better yet, run screaming away from McD's and eat real food.

Reason 21 why I won't be going there.
