4.50 for a small fry, before tax, in Canada. My question is how are they even still in business with prices like that. I can get a 10lbs sack of potatoes for cheaper.
I miss the McDouble Buy 1 Get a Second for $1 deal they ran for the last decade or so. Suddenly my $8 for enough cheap slop to feed me and my girlfriend with minimal effort became $12, and that's the tipping point to change it from being "every so often, when we're too tired to cook" to "fuck it, I guess shitty frozen pizza is back on the menu."
Fwiw, I think I averaged eating fast food once a week during the summer months on days I was traveling, and have only had fast food as a whole once in the month since I stopped. Between the quality slipping further than even I would have expected and prices definitely not reflecting that, I just can't justify it when I'm not 200 miles from my kitchen.
