So I have to use doordash to look at pricing cuz I'm not installing the McDonald's app.
The quarter pounder with cheese it is $10.59 for the combo meal. It used to be just over $2 when I was a teenager.
Using DoorDash still but for a local restaurant called muddy cow, the cheeseburger meal there is $13.
So I can go to McDonald's and will cost me $11 or I can go to the sit down restaurant and it'll cost me $13. And the sit down restaurant the burger was fresh cooked, I get way more fries (and frankly better fries), and I don't act like pickles are the most valuable thing on the planet.
I don't know just open up door dash and start looking at prices around you that's what I did.
So, to try and prove your point, you're looking at a third party delivery service, who is known to change prices to maximize said third parties bottom line? ๐ค
Feel free to get in a car and go drive around tonight look at prices. You said you didn't see proof I provided proof and then you complaining cuz you don't like it cuz it's not in the context that you wanted. This is on you.
"go spend your time and money to prove me right because I wasn't able to prove myself right about a stranger spending 2 dollars more than I would" ๐คฆโโ๏ธ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
Hey, guess what - not everyone is able to go out to eat (not only due to physical disability, but lack of time and energy, and lets not forget a pandemic is still raging out there, and some people can't just ignore it like the rest of you).
The fact that you're getting all high and mighty over a poster whose life you know nothing about, for the sake of 2 dollars says a lot more about you than spending 30 bucks on fast food says about well, anyone.
What is your actual malfunction!?
I have two words of advice. One take your own advice, because everything you just yelled at me about applies to you.
Two context, I have no idea what you're talking about. The conversation was about is fast food price similar to sit down restaurant price. It was 11:00 p.m. so I used an app where I could see multiple restaurant pricings in one central location. You're over here getting on your goddamn high horse. You need to go reevaluate your priorities.
