Unless you go to McDonald's while using the app, or buy one of Little Caesars hot and ready, you're better off making your own burgers, fries, and pizza.

It's almost always been cheaper to prepare your own food. The value of fast food isn't the low cost, it's the "fast". Making your own burgers/fries, pizza, etc...takes a lot more time than hitting up a McDonald's or Pizza Hut.

I don't eat fast food because it's expensive, I don't eat it because it doesn't taste good.

In all seriousness, just look at Hardees/Carls and the six dollar burger:

  • The original marketing: 3.99 for a burger that matches the quality of a six dollar burger at a steakhouse (ha ha)
  • Later: 6 dollars because its a burger that costs six dollars
  • Later still: **** it lets call them thickburgers because we cant charge people six dollars for these anymore.
  • Now: I have no idea tbh

Some of you were probably not alive to remember, but once upon a time, fast food used to taste better, and were bigger, too. Hell, back then, my dad had to use two hands to eat a Whopper.

If you go to a McDonald's you can usually get in and out in 5 minutes depending on what you're ordering.

Yeah, the only thing of "value" is that its fast which saves you time for doing other things then spending time in the kitchen making it yourself. Granted, making foods tends to always be cheaper and you can portion the ingredients to make it WAY healthier, but fully understandable why some people just don't have that time to do so. Cooking with fresh ingredients always requires planning or the food/ingredients get spoiled.

Most are aware there are some good deals on those fast food apps, the pain is just having a bajillion of them on your phones. I've also had it where it glitches on me making it even a more pain in the ass experience. I'm just glad in general I don't eat out as much anymore.

wendy's used to be my go to. but i need to invest into a decent smartphone again (a cellphone plan isn't much more than a landline and can use the app's again).

BOGO chicken sandwich (spicy) is very good.

It's interesting, I love McDonalds, Wendys, etc, I mean I know it's not GOOD food but it hits a spot.

Then I learned that not all McDonalds is created equal. When I lived on NYC it was HORRIBLE! Bread tasted stale, and they'd just have a slice of unmelted cheese on the cheeseburger instead of melting the cheese nicely. On Long Island, the McDonalds were high quality. So while I'm sure some hate it because it's legit bad (nobody would call it HIGH quality) I wonder if some people hate it because they have bad McDonalds.

What does an individual meal look like for each of you? I can't imagine spending 15 dollars at a BK, even with higher prices.

You use their apps and coupon stack, brah.

Heres an example-
Double baconator, double stack $5 meal (double stack burger, chicken nuggets, small drink, and a large fry with up charge), additional large fries, all for $6.

You cant make this for cheaper at home.

Literally fed 5 people for $13. Cant make it for cheaper than this either.

I usually get a bacon king combo, which comes to about $13. What everyone else gets depends on their moods. It's gotten to where we usually don't eat out unless it's either a special occasion or there's an app that has something everyone is in the mood for.
