They raised their prices too high and lost business to their competition. Now, I guess, they are trying to undo the damage they did.

I wouldn’t read too much into a 2 week sale, especially in January.

Burger King has been selling certain of their “premium” sandwiches at 2 for $5 for quite a while now.

Denver people could get them for a DOLLAR the day after a broncos game if they have a special reusable key fob coupon they would mail out.

They injected more pink slime into the beef so they can afford to lower the price.

McDonalds always has a promo at the beginning of the year. It’s how they try to break lots of New Years diets and resolutions among their demographic base. I noticed this many many years ago. I’ve even fallen victim to it. It’s simply a marketing strategy.

I remember the 15 cent burgers and 10 cent fries there when I was a kid.

I read that catering to black and gays almost exclusively has really hurt their bottom line, maybe they are trying to drum up more business.

When did they start calling Biscuits “Breakfast Sandwiches”?

Just curious.

I’ve never pulled up to a drive-thru and asked for a “Ham & Egg Breakfast Sandwich”. lol (not that I’d order anything from McDonald’s for breakfast anyway)

The last time I ordered something from McDonald’s for breakfast, I ordered a “Steak and Egg Biscuit”(they read it back to me as a “breakfast sandwich” lol)

I ended up getting something that looked like what came off the grill the night before when they scraped it to clean it off, with what looked like COULD have been an egg on top. I threw it out the window. In the rear view mirror, I believe I saw a dog walk up and piss on it....

given the meat they use $2 is probably still too high.

Doesn’t matter, as a Quarter Pounder now has less meat inside than a Krystal.

Their response models predict that for this type of offer
the additional revenue they will get from new business and repeat customers

will be greater than

the forgone revenue from the discount.
