majestictwelve | In reply to @vwbusguy:matrix.org majestictwelve: You can get a sandwich for $4? Yeah. Maybe | 18:33:01 |
vwbusguy | I'm pretty sure the McDonald's "Dollar Menu" starts at $20 here | 18:33:01 |
gnafu | McD's doesn't have what I would consider a value menu anymore. I used to go there often to get a couple $1 McDoubles and a $1 McChicken. Now I think the McChicken is pushing $2 and the McDouble is pushing $3. | 18:38:25 |
gnafu | Meanwhile, you can still get stuffed at Taco Bell for ~$5. I go there whenever my wife is out of town {:-]. | 18:38:46 |
janos | aha | 18:39:03 |
janos | i'm waiting for my daughter to come back east. she loves tacobell. pretty much any time i went was with her | 18:39:27 |
gnafu | ^^ | 18:39:45 |
janos | it woudl be really late at night and she'd ask me if i wanted to go with her. loved those moments | 18:40:13 |
gnafu | If you order online (which doesn't require an app, unlike most places these days), they have a My Cravings Box for $5.49 that is a very good value. | 18:40:16 |
janos | oooh cool | 18:40:25 |
gnafu | Three items and a drink. You can get nearly a day's worth of calories (and a couple days' worth of sodium). | 18:40:46 |
gnafu | And Taco Bell doesn't require you to choose a pickup time. You check in at the speakerbox and they make it like you just ordered. | 18:41:24 |
gnafu | Best online ordering experience. | 18:41:28 |
janos | nice | 18:41:37 |
gnafu | For a while, my local Taco Bell had a lot of serious staffing issues. You'd order online, and arrive to a cone blocking the drive-thru and a sign on the door saying they closed early due to staffing. | 18:43:46 |
gnafu | (Easy to cancel the order and get a refund.) | 18:43:56 |
gnafu | They've been better lately, though there have still be days where I go to submit the order and the website says "online ordering is currently unavailable". | 18:44:21 |
