JamesRobot | 5,806 Events Team · Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 I haven't seen any advertising this time around. But it's back. Been a week or two I think. And it's just on the regular sandwich menu. No signage either. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox | 1,668 Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 I can’t believe they dumped the grilled chicken sandwich. I don’t remember what I got last time but it was pretty below par. At least they blue Fanta freeze is bomb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see they're still doing that pinching the bottom of the fry box crap and thus you only get half a box of fries, even though all their ads and menus past and present show the boxes full and the fries standing tall and proud. I'm actually almost next door to a McDonalds and I would've killed for this kind of chance back in the good ol' days of the 80s/90s when they had Super Size. But I'm never going there if they insist on pulling this stunt. I mean...is wanting and getting your money's worth too much to ask?

Last time I went, it was $20 for a double cheeseburger combo. Sure it was good, but it wasn't McRib good. That's sit down restaurant money, not fast food burger money. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trick is to eat $20 worth of peanuts while you wait. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estil | 1,265 Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 Here's what I can do instead of McDonalds...I can cook a pound of ground beef on my George Foreman grill with a half a bag of these...these are the BEST fries I've know of; both grocery and restaurant alike. Plus my local grocery even sells Rally's fries! https://growninidaho.com/product/hand-cut-style-fries/ I mean I have always loved McDonald's Double Quarter Pounder (cheese only; I can't stand burgers with goop all over them) but if they're gonna charge all this money and only give me half a box of fries with their stupid mean trick then I'll just have the above! I get much more food this way and it's (probably) slightly cheaper! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would cost extra money in delivery fee and you're probably expected to tip as well. Did you happen to forget that all I get is SSDI every month?

There are videos that show you how to cook burgers McD's style. Even got one for the McRib. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
