We hardly ever eat as fast food restaurants nowadays. Maybe sometimes when driving on a trip and we didn't pack enough to eat.
Recently, my son was in a tennis tournament, playing consecutive matches over 5 hours. Although we packed food and drink for the session, we decided to get a quick bite when he had a longer break. He didn't want much, just fries. I ordered large fries, since I wanted to have a small snack too. To my surprise, the large fries were $4.19. Sticker shock.
What happened to the dollar menu, when I remember fries were just $1? My daughter told me that $1 fries are the regular promotional price if one uses the app. Unfortunately, I prefer not to have nor use restaurant apps since I don't like them tracking me. So, I'm not getting the McDonald's app. And I'm not going there in the future. Never again.
