Idk about boycotting but I’ll tell you that I haven’t had McDonald’s since I went and it was like $20+ for two people for some breakfast sandwiches (meals). I’d rather buy the frozen ones or just have none. Like everyone else, we don’t have a ton of extra money and if we do go out, we want our value for our time.
I got used to thinking about money being time. If you make 15/hr then one meal is roughly one hour. Don’t think of your dollar, think of how many hours something costs.

What? You can get enough ingredients to make 4 burgers for that much at a grocery store. You just have to make it yourself. The entire concept of fast food is that you’re paying more for the convenience.

I was being generous in their favor. Basically steel-manning their argument.
Insane how little it costs to rent a human.
It’s a lease-to-own
“time is money” etc and inversely
When/where was this? My wife and I just had breakfast sandwiches with sides and drinks, each, a week or so ago and it was like $8 total for both.
I just checked here online and the cheapest breakfast meal is 6.99 in the middle of flyover country, with the high end being over $8.
Ah, I checked as well and it was because of BOGO/BOGO1 deals in the mobile app (which seem to be a daily thing). It cost like $5 more to order two meals versus ordering the items individually and triggering BOGO/BOGO1. Brought it down to $9 for both.
Part two of not ordering McDonald’s is that they updated their ToS back in October and basically bought your waiver of rights to sue for some free fries.
I can’t see prices online without accepting the terms. I refuse.
