I remember before COVID I could get 20 nuggets for 4.99 now it was 9.68. A McDouble was 4. No promotion items and the menu is barebones. We had it for the first time in probably a year because we were traveling and didnt have time this week. The McDonalds at home still had all the good stuff. They had a bacon egg and cheese bagel, steak breakfast sandwich etc..

the west coast McDonalds are trash

True, true. My family of four recently ate there and our total was over thirty bucks. No longer cheap and it wasn't very fast.

Idk if two of your four were kids just getting small happy meals, but four adults for $30 still sounds cheap compared to what I usually see these days... I would expect four to be paying closer to $40

It's out of control. I think I did a double-quarter-pounder with cheese meal medium size... $12. For what is basically a mediocre double cheeseburger, fries, and a 10 cent cup of soda (or whatever I got to drink, we all know the markup on the syrup is like 1000%)

Eh, the kids are getting older and want regular combos. I usually get 3 double cheeseburgers as I don't like fries. And I almost always have water to drink already... But a double cheeseburger is close to three bucks now.

It's not cheap and it's not fast, there''s literally no point to eating there.

My local pork bun place raised the price from 2$ to 2.50$ and it super sucks, but at least the service is lightning quick and the ingredients wholesome.

Very true. We almost never eat fast food anymore, preferring to go to a local spot. I can get better food and more of it all while supporting a local business.

It's cute that you think this is from them paying workers more.

I only went to them for the mcflurrys and breakfast wraps and mcmuffins.

Since they removed the breakfast wraps after covid lockdown, I stopped going there.

I only go there when they have special burgers on now. They barebones normal menu is shit.

McDonald's suffered the worst from food price increases. They were never good, but they were cheap. Now they aren't even cheap. I prefer taco bell instead now. Their value menu isn't bad.

Minimum wage is almost triple what it was 15 years ago and prices reflect that.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


this is true. but i actually did take a break from McD for about a year or so and now that i'm back, i definitely notice an increase in prices. not a huge increase but it's certainly slowly getting more and more expensive.

I got 4 breakfast burritos and a breakfast sandwich the other day.

$16 was the total. I had to do a triple take, then shamelessly pay for it.

Fuck McDonald's. I'm done

If you use the McDonald's app you can at least get 100 points for every $1 spent to put towards menu items in the future, but yeah, I don't really go for the food anymore, the occasinal Mcflurry, McCafe and seasional item is all I go for these days.
