Isn't this just blatant lying on the part of the fast food company? If you have a printed menu with prices on it, you can't just bait and switch like this.

    Wendys actually thinks they can treat CHEESEBURGERS like a valuable, limited commodity. I HAVE to buy gasoline because I have no choice. I don't have to buy Wendy's cheeseburgers. I can make my own damn cheeseburgers.

    I wonder how long it will be before "Surge prices" become permanent price increases in certain neighborhoods?

    People don't like paying premium prices for average or crap food. But they like being exploited even less. Even if Wendys rescinds the surge pricing policy, those customers are never coming back. People will remember that Wendys tried to f*ck them over.

    That's easily solvable. "For informational purposes only. Prices subject to adjustment without notification."

    Soon restaurants will become stock exchanges, with people waiting on the price of chicken nuggets to drop.
