Did something I don’t normally do. I went to McDonald’s and got a value meal of a Quarter pounder with cheese, fries, and a drink. I literally asked the order take her if I heard her right that the cost was $6.59! What the...

Almost $7 for a “value meal”? That won’t happen again real soon. But yeah, there is no inflation whatsoever.

yes, McD has been raising its prices. and the “dollar menu” is now a “dollar and more” menu, with the majority of items now priced above a dollar, some quite a bit above a dollar too.

for what it does, McD does it quite well, but I can’t eat there because I barf it right up (maybe my stomache is just getting more sensitive as I get older). So anyway I don’t suffer from McD-inflation. Just wait until they are forced to start paying double-scale wages......your “value meal” will cash out at about $15 or so

Blame the minimum wage for that. Near my house in a toen called Seatac, the minimum wage is now $15. Try buying a value meal there!
