I can get a full, wellmade calzone and drink for 8.15 at a nearby pizza place. I got two small cheeseburges and a small fry for 10.00 at McDonald's. Ridiculous
A cheese pizza and a soda at Panucci's is $10.77
Do not tip the delivery boy 🤌🤌
Owwww!
I don't eat fast food often but on occasion I'll get a craving. It's been a few years but I had an urge to get McDonald's. I got a mcchicken, double cheese burger, and medium fries. $13! W. T. F.
Damn now I want a calzone
I can get a full size large frozen pizza at Aldi for about that price too. I can also even get a large 5 topping pizza from dominos using coupons on their app for about 10 which isn’t bad, but grocery store is still cheaper.
Comparing takeaway to a supermarket is comparing apples to oranges.
You have to factor in convenience and why people are going there anyway.
Dominoes example is aight.
Dominos is the last stronghold of affordable fast food imo. I constantly get emails from them for free pizza. Easily only $15 plus delivery tip for a meal for two. Granted I only get it once a month at best.
I fucking hate dominoes and even I respect them for being a cheap food option that has stayed pretty cheap. Little Caesars too I guess. $5-$6 pizza is a life saver for some... LITERALLY
I can hit up a Little Ceasers for a whole ass pizza for less than what McDonalds wants for a Big Mac and Fries.
Hell I can feed two people off that little ceasers pizza, and have left overs for lunch the next day.
Delectible!
Bread is cheaper than beef.
IDK how much beef is in a McDonalds burger these days, but still.
In 2020 I always waited for the $1.99 ground beef specials because I wasn't willing to pay $2.99/lb. Now everywhere is $6/lb. Hell even ground turkey, which used to be cheap, is the same price. Make it make sense.
