So you can get a double cheeseburger and small fry for $2.50 at McDonalds and they are advertising it like it's some big special. But the small fry and double cheeseburger was on their dollar menu last summer...

What a deal, give us an extra 50 cents.

Do you really want to eat a $2.50 burger and fries combo? You can obviously whine on the internet about it so you can probably afford crap like a Big Mac or a Quarter Pounder.

I don't go to McDonalds unless I'm high and/or drunk and then obviously I'd rather get 3 or 4 double cheeseburgers. The ads are just annoying like they are advertising that they are raising their prices.

op gently caress up, a double cheeseburger is like 3.50 over here in aus, and i think it's 1 dollar for small fries, so shut the gently caress up and jam your fat jowels full of cheap, 2.50 deals

I think in australia your minimum wage worker doesn't have to work an hour for a cheeseburger though. I might be wrong, having never traveled to such a poo poo country before.

Stop going to McDonald's. Eat at Zaxby's.

This is two pieces of Texas toast, 3 chicken strips, ranch sauce, mild hot sauce, and seasoned fries. They also have the Coke Freestyle thing.

Now I'm hungry, thanks a lot.

mcdonalds made a big deal last year about how they had to make a big change cause business sucked and they decided the way to do that was kill the dollar menu and sell "new" versions of the $6 fancy burgers that no one ever buys, lol

The Wendy's in my city was one of the ones that the corporate office decided to just shut down one day without warning. They released some statement about "creating opportunities for exciting new burger synergy" or some bullshit like that. It's been several months and the loving place is still abandoned, looking like poo poo.

McDonald's is hosed in the higher priced food. There are already resturants like Zaxby's and Chick-Fil-A that do it better.

yeah but they looked at their failing sales after they revamped the dollar menu and went "woah we hosed with the dollar menu and our sales are hosed, we should go ahead and just basically get rid of the whole thing and bring out more expensive burgers that 1% of our customers buy" like they're the dumbest fuckers in business

Technically it's tongue torch, but that's like a baby's boob milk for me. It's much hotter on wings since it's not mixed with ranch sauce.

McDonald's problem is that they tried to chase the artisanal trend even though their customer base is people that just want bargain basement cheap, greasy fare.

So they start making these expensive burger combos that are OK but way overpriced when compared to what you get for the same amount of money at Hardees/Carl's Jr, Wendy's, and Jack n the Box. then they start raising the prices of their value menu and people start saying "gently caress it, if I'm going to spend this much money, I'll just get something that actually tastes decent".

The only time I really ever eat fast food is if I want a bunch of food, hot and ready to eat for next to nothing. So pretty much the only thing I really get any more is a bunch of 3/$1.09 tacos from Del Taco on Taco Tuesday. Otherwise, I might get a Big Carl Combo from Carl's Jr when it's on special for $5. The Big Mac is a joke compared to the Big Carl.

Why McDonalds continues to insist on keeping the breakfast menu separate is beyond me.

If the mouth breathers down at the Jack n the Box can manage to serve it all day, so can McDonalds.

Yeah, I am goony enough that I went to McD for the first time in a long time and picked up their artisian chicken sandwich. It was so loving bland and bad when I can drive ~0 minutes further out of my way and go to Wendy's and something way better.
