In 2017 when Trump was president

McDonald’s much-anticipated new 2017 value menu means massive prices cuts for customers, a roughly 15% price reduction across the chain’s the full menu.

According to West, some items are already being sold at similar prices, leading up to the launch of the new value menu. Happy Meals for kids — are going to have their prices slashed by up to 25%.

The $1 items include menu offerings such as the Sausage Burrito, McChicken, and Cheeseburger. Items including the 2-piece Buttermilk Crispy Tenders, Bacon McDouble, and McCafé beverages will be sold for $2, and Happy Meals and Triple Cheeseburgers will cost $3.

While the McPick 2 has helped drive sales over the past year, a new national Dollar Menu is a major move to win over customers looking for value.

The company is throwing a huge amount of weight behind the effort, increasing its already massive national advertising budget by 20% starting in 2018.

In my area, Cook Out and Chic FilA are always busy. The parking lots are full and there is always a long line at the Drive Thru.

I saw a car at Popeyes yesterday. That’s the first time in six months.

McDonalds usually has a couple of cars.

Wendy’s is usually fairly busy.
