I don't go to McDonald's, but this looks like cherry-picking data to force a narrative to me. Are Big Macs really $8 for just the sandwich these days?

    Did a little research and found a Big Mac costs around $4.49, or $7.49 for a meal. Really hard to check prices without downloading their app, btw. Though, I've heard that McDonnalds is a lot like Subway, in that anyone not using the app and coupon codes for every order is getting ripped off big time.

    Depends on where you are.

    Just shy of $9 by me, and $15 for the meal.

    $5.29 near me. And you can get 25% off if you use the app.

    25% off and all I need to do is give up access to my phone and all the info it gathers on me to be monetized and used to manipulate me into spending more?!

    Yeah every now and then (like once a year) I’ll get a weird craving. Last time I went in there, shit was crazy expensive. That was like two years ago. I haven’t gone back since because of the price.
