Current Events > Just realized it's cheaper to get Fries and Sandwich separate at Popeyes

(+) Yeah! (+)

Like why do companies do this. Its basically stealing from the customers.

What about the drink

I believe McDonald's is notorious for this

I dont drink soda so I never get the drink so Im not sure on that.

Please don't be that customer that complains about why another restaurant of the same franchise sells the same thing for cheaper. Franchise stores don't control the prices and don't always have a cashier function to add tax to a custom price. Don't want to spend an extra 5 minutes waiting for food because of people like you arguing with the employee and manager about how you can get the same thing from a store in another part of the city for slightly cheaper.

What in the blue hell, are you talking about

McDonalds got sued for this years ago and stopped doing it. the only issue with it is they called it a "value" meal when the "deal" ended up not being a better value. Ultimately, who cares? Just buy them separately.

In my experience, the employees will be "helpful" and ring up the separate items as a combo. Then if you try to correct it, they get an attitude and act like you're a Karen.

Probably how Taco Bell in like the Northeast is more expensive than like down south or something

What he said to you was very clear. Doing the whole "wtf r u talking about" without actually replying to someone is a cheap way to disregard what they said to you.

It was very easy to understand what they said.

What you said was so vague that there was nothing off topic about him discussing franchise pricing.

If everything he said had nothing to do with your beliefs, you never made that clear either. However you did discuss pricing. He discussed it as well.

Are you dumb?

What did this have anything to do with what I said. I clearly only said that it was cheaper to get the fries and sandwich separate and thats all. When did I ever mention getting anything cheaper anywhere else.
