- Today on Weird History Food we examine something that everyone is well aware of - the cost of even the cheapest options in the past has gone way way up! It wasn't all that long ago that Fast Food was THE cheapest dining option, but, over the years, that has changed. Today we look at the how great the price changes have been, and the possible reasons why!

You didn't mention that portion sizes have decreased at the same time prices have gone up, so we're actually paying twice as much for probably 75% of the actual product as we were 5 years ago.
the pickles are thicker than the meat patties
Americans and lying by omission go hand-in-hand, like bald eagles and AR-15s
No you arent. Inflation is a thing and the apps always save you a ton.
Vote with your money! Don't think the prices are reasonable then don't patronize the restaurant! The prices would come down if all of us did this. I stopped going to fast food places solely because of this. As a side benefit I eat less and lost weight.
Nobody else is less expensive
Greed. Plain and simple. Prices always go up when an economy is bad but you never see them go back down once the economy improves.
@@Lawrence_Talbot How greedy is it if people are still paying? If people stop paying, which has slowly started, prices will come down. We did this to ourselves.
@@jaymoor8995 I 100% agree. The problem is modern business theory if sales drop they raise prices to make up for down profits. It’s so backwards but I have seen this applied in too many companies both small and big international corporations. Sadly the greed won’t go away until new leaders come in who truly value their customers and employees
@@jaymoor8995 Yes, you've highlighted the fact that the "greed" in question is actually a two-way street. I know that in reality not every individual who complains is guilty, but some amount of them are, and that's always the case.
I think the message is that, without the cheap prices, fast food places have no place. The Applebees guy was spot-on...For about the same price, you get much higher quality food (and definitely a better environment). I can see a scenario where McDonalds and others go through a reduction in stores.
Just because you sit down doesn't mean the quality goes up. I tried an Applebee's burger. It's not better than McDonalds.
@@tjg555 if you think a a processed, factory made patty, is just as good as a fresh hand made patty, then your opinion holds no value whatsoever.
@@coby4482 If you think Applebee's doesn't use processed food, your opinion holds no value either. Good day sir.
@tjg55 quit lying bro. A burger from anywheres gonna taste better than McDonald’s, because their stuff all tastes the same. I don’t go to McDonald’s for a good burger, I go there for McDonald’s.
@@tjg555 Try Red Robin. Better burger (with lots of options) plus endless fries. I mostly only get appetizers at Applebees.
Now it's a sad meal
It may be a sad meal, it was always a crappy meal.
SAD= standard American diet.
With the way things have been also hit the mark on that now it's try not to cry and scream in agony. Since I sure know I'm going to be.
@@johngalt97 That really now fits with the time and also considering this video and many others on how bad the economy is really a bad idea to go on shopping sprees now.
Nice
I feel like it's unfair to point at rising labor costs without acknowledging that the reason why labor costs rise is due to cost of living increases which include some shared elements like cost of ingredients and transportation but also cost of housing which is ignored here. Labor cost increases don't exist in a vacuum and generally tend to come from other economic pressures. Like housing costs.
Also more competition. Why pay a high school kid $15/hr when Pablo will work under the table for $6
It is not unfair to talk about rising labor costs. Every time that the minimum wage increases, the cost of labor increases and the cost of fast food costs all of us more money. That is one of the reasons that fast food is so expensive now. So it is very related.
Housing is a separate issue. Interestingly, the population of the United States would be slightly decreasing if it was not for immigration. If the population was slightly decreasing the cost of housing would also decrease as there would be less competition, and the older generations would fade away allowing for more affordable housing. The housing crisis is artificial. There is no reason to have more people here, especially when many jobs are being phased out by technology.
@@500ccRabbit I do not think fast food establishments engage in hiring people under the table. They are relegated to paying a high school kid that $15, or $20 an hour. A smaller independent restaurant might do that.
The reason you would not pay Pablo the $6 would be because it would be illegal, likely he is also illegal and you are incentivizing people to break the law, and therefore you will have more people like that come and break our laws. Thirdly chances are Pablo's English skills are not very good. Lastly, why not support your own community and put the money back into their hands.
You know it's bad when you can get better deals at brick and mortar places.
its not. brick and mortar have the incumbant space to hold inventory. thus can buy/store more and mark down the costs. geeee whoda thunk
@@SadBoysCollectiveCirca96 I'd be surprised if each store purchases their own inventory directly from suppliers rather than from a distribution center where products are bought in bulk at a larger discount than many sit down restaurants.
@@SadBoysCollectiveCirca96not even remotely true. You’re completely overlooking the massive bulk discounts fast food places get by placing their giant orders from exclusive suppliers. I promise you McDonald’s pays far less for their meat and fries than a local restaurant because they order in a single day what a restaurant won’t see in a year.
Tf are they
@@SadBoysCollectiveCirca96 literal lamebrain comment. think, mark, think.
In Seattle, a sausage egg muffin is $5.89. Large fries are $5.19 and a mcchicken is $4.19. I took the dollar menu for granted-we had it so good back then!
4.20 meal when I was in highschool. 2004 ish. McDouble, mcchicken, 4 piece nugget and small fry.
We took the 2010s for granted so hard.
It's almost like the Obama driven economy was good and prices starting soaring after a certain orange someone blew it all up.
You hit 'the age'
I had this feeling in 2005 about the 90s, my parents probably had it in 1985
I remember going to McDonalds and getting 19 McChickens for under $20 tax included. I was trying to wrap my head around how much that could cost now. According to his prices it would cost a little under $100. I think his prices are a bit higher than one would typically pay for a McChicken. It would not be unreasonable to assume that it would cost around $80.
When I got the 19 McChickens that was only... 12 years ago, I believe. A 4-5x price increase is asinine. This is the reason that I do not go to fast food places anymore.
It got smaller and pricey
WHERE'S THE BEEF?!?
They were once the rage for 3 simple reasons
Good food. Fast food. Cheap food.
It is no longer Good. It is no longer Cheap. And It hasn't been fast for a while now.
WHY do people still go ??!!
To pay the CEO & the Execs. The everyday worker sees little of it.
So the $20 an hour minimum wage for minimum work is not enough...
I miss the dollar menu!😢
@@torablack The Dollar Menu was nice.
@@BoereVikingMcDonald's makes enough money to pay their employees $30/hr but they are a greedy corporation who would rather cut hours and automate everything than pay their employees a living wage
@@BoereViking yeah in 1 state.
Do not insult Wendys, they have had a $5 bag for a long time and McDonald's stole that idea
I came here to post exactly this! Wendy's has had the 4 for $4 deal and $5 bag options for years.
Pay attention to all the celebrity endorsed items on fast food menus. These celebrities are paid a huge chunk of change for the advertisement and if you don't think you, the customer aren't paying for it well I got some news for you!
They can’t even afford to hire Ronald McDonald back at a reasonable wage so they got that rapper who killed people at his astroworld concert and those Chinese *NSYNC boys to make promo meals so the kids want to go there.
Yes, because paying a celeb $10 million in a multi-billion dollar worldwide industry ads .0000003% of a penny to a Big mac.
@@dongeraci8599 The point is that once a celeb endorsement gets added onto a product, the company can, and does artificially inflate the price of said product. Of course no consumer is held at gunpoint and forced to buy these things, but greedflation is real and has occurred across every industry and is a very significant percentage of these price hikes.
I rarely eat fast food anymore. About every 6 months I will get a craving for fast food, but the craving is what I remember it tasting like. I will stop at a fast food place and always be surprised how nasty it is and how expensive it is. Fast food has become TERRIBLE.
Fast food has become trash, people are paying super-sized prices for garbage. Nothing like it was in the 70s-80s-90s
Yeah it's crazy how much prices have gone up. I used to get the bean burrito at Taco Bell for .79 and now that is 2.19!!! For beans, a bit of cheese and a freaking tortilla? I refuse to pay a lot for fast food. If I can't find a deal, I just eat at home
$2.19 really isn't that big of a deal like this isn't breaking the bank in 2024. When you have McDonald's charging $10 for a freaking hamburger
@@MarkfromNewYork some people live on different incomes, Mark. She's still paying over double.
You could make 10 very cheesy burritos for the cost of two Taco Hell burritos and freeze the extras.
It's much cheaper to buy the ingredients for a burger or taco. Idk about pizza though, i think it's still worth it to buy a pizza from a restaurant than a frozen pizza.
no it isnt. not even remotely close. you cant buy single units to make individual items. you have to buy "in bulk" so the over all cost is going to be 5-7 times higher than just purchasing a single burger from where ever. plus you have to make it yourself which is additional cost in time and energy. the price break down may be "cheaper" on paper, but in practise you end up paying more over all. name a one store where you can buy a single hard shell taco or tortilla wrap. outside of a butcher, where can you get 1-2 oz of ground beef? can you get the bun at the butcher shop? what about the cheese, bacon if thats your thing. or the veggies ? you cant buy a single leaf of lettuce, or a single slice of a tomato. youre provably wrong.
@@SadBoysCollectiveCirca96 I don't have a huge family and my schedule allows me to cook most of my meals. And I mostly shop on the discount days at my local super mercado. But I'm assuming your situation is different.
Say it with me.... DIGIORNO'S STUFFED CRUST
Pizzas are cheap to make yourself, but I would agree that a pizza from a pizza place is more worthwhile compared to a frozen pizza but they’re both bad options
A large pizza is like $30 now
When I got my first job out of high school (1992), about $5 was all you needed to get lunch... Burger, fries, and a Coke...from most places. Now it's closer to $12.😮
Based on the inflation calc $5 in '92 is generally worth $11.42 today.
It is closer to $18 per person in Hawaii for fast food meals. They think they can get away with their corporate greed....and it is up to us, the individual consumers, to show them it is unacceptable.
@@arejaybeeshhhh thats too much logic for these crybabies
I ordered taco bell it came to $70.00. 1 cravings box, 3 bean and rice burritos add tomatoes and lettuce., 2 dinks and two fries .. no way should that be close to 100$
I'm in Upstate NY and the TB in Norwich charges $3.89 for a regular taco. Meanwhile, in Binghamton, it's $1.89. A BK in Binghamton charges $3.89 for a regular hamburger and in Norwich, it's $1.89. What was told te me from the stores that charge more is that they're franchises and are charged more for the food. I think it's BS because the TB is the only one in over 50 miles and they take advantage of it.
How many damn mouths you feeding
Yesterday I ordered two orders of fries and it cost me $9.49 and they came out cold. Yeah McDonald’s sucks.
The quality of the food at all of them is absolute trash. Nothing like it was in the 70s-80s-90s
This is so true. Even if the prices were not laughably inappropriate, the food is not even worth eating at all.
You couldve used the app that gives you free fries every week. Thats on you for being lazy.
Whenever I order food these days, I rarely get fast food. I just order from diners and pick up and they’re like slightly more expensive, but I get so much more and better quality.
Been to Chili’s and Applebee’s more in the last six months than I have in the last six years
Taco Bell was my go-to cheap place until prices skyrocketed a few years ago. These days I patronize locally owned restaurants almost exclusively. The prices are the same as or better than those at national chains, the quality of the food is much better, and I've got the satisfaction of helping to support community businesses.
The founders of these companies with the exception of McDonald's would be rolling in their graves.
Rolling up in your mom's vagina
at the insatiable amount of greed the current owners can get away with, now in their graves, regretting not having charged insane amounts before?
Fast food is not cheap or fast anymore, they fail on both.
Ronald McDonald gots debts... gotta make that scratch, or they'll take his thumbs!
I lived through the 70's when a trip to McDonalds might happen once a month and it was usually a disappointment. I swore they used Styrofoam containers so they could shake Big Macs after they made them. We made food at home. Mom made a lot of tuna casseroles. I still haven't forgiven her for that. But, it did teach me to cook....and shop.
Here in the UK the price has gone through the roof and the quality has gone through the floor
Corporate greed, plain and simple. It's just price-gouging, knowing that they have a niche that is exploitable. If it really was the rising costs of production, then sit down restaurants and small businesses should be exponentially more expensive due to higher quality food for the former and less means of production for the latter. Instead as the Applebee's guy put it they are instead the better deal. Big chains like McDonalds have a bigger obligation to shareholders so "line must go up" to keep them happy.
Wish we had those fast food prices from back then and food quality
Wish we had a lot of things from five years ago! No wars, low prices for food, cheap gas ... hrm, wonder what changed?
@@giraffesinc.2193 lizard people..definitely the lizard people
20 years ago hamburgers at mcdonalds was 29 cents
And this is why my family rarely eats fast food. Our cholesterol thanks them for their greed
It's easy corporate GREED
'Super size me' ruined fast food. For two decades, fast food chains tried to rebrand as 'premium' and 'healthy' in the backlash. Pushing their menu cost up and making their menu too large, increasing their cost. Not to mention it gave them cover to reduce portion sizes. And what was his point? That you can't eat exclusively fast food? All the healthy items are gone from the menu now anyway. It didn't help anybody.
Yep. Hated that documentary. Everyone in my school became a spazzy health nut. Even food habits can be woke
@@tylerjames-yf1hoWhat nonsense. Eat healthy or die young. Is living long woke? Also don't make excuses for corporate greed. Instead eat better elsewhere.
@@tylerjames-yf1hoLiving healthy long lifes is woke now? 😂
@@KarlTheExpert woke
McDonald's has effectively hit the limit on what consumers were willing to pay for fast food. Because why go to McDonald's when you could go to a fast casual place like blaze Pizza for example.
They didn't even discuss the SIZE change. I bought a mcgriddle the other day. First time in maybe 6 yearss. They are tiny now. The same size as an old sausage biscuit. Mcgriddles used to be big.
One sausage egg and cheese Mcgriddle in Denver is $5.39 before tax. 🤯
@anthonychihuahua think the are about 3.50 here in the Dallas area but I used an app coupn and got it for a buck. The was fine for a buck....but not regular price.
In the 15 years that I've worked at McDonald's, the McGriddles have never changed size. They've always been the same size as the biscuits and English muffins.
@Morgil27 damn. Well I won't question your experience.....it just seemed so small. Apologies to everyone if I am mistaken. I never like false narratives.
Ah how I miss the good ole days of when it was cheaper to eat out than cook. Every wknd I would take my wife out to her fav diner.
The greed of the CEO's lining their pockets while poorly paying the employees and charging everyone more
It's the economy, stupid.
I remember being able to get a full meal from one of the big 3 for about $6
Didn't really get meals for a long time. Like years. Then sometime last year I was grabbing a sandwich and a drink and it came out to like $8... The sandwich was $6+ and not even like a double bic mac or quarter pounder or anything...
I can clearly remember going to McD's for my sister a few months ago and for 6 items it came out to over $20... Some chicken nuggets, fries, couple of ice creams, a burger, it was ridiculous. I couldn't believe it. I thought something must have been wrong...
What happened to the dollar menu? Lmao
Greed greed greed. But in reality this is a good thing. Fast food is terribly unhealthy, and if the high cost is off-putting, then it's a great time to start eating healthier at home.
I hope the prices keep rising so people stop eating that junk.
Why was there no mention of agriculture or subsidies that kept prices/real costs deceptively low for so long.
Meat is still waaaay too cheap considering its environmental impact. Fast food is bad either way and it's corporate greed fueling prices but this stuff should never have been cheap.
Greed, the answer is corporate greed.
Applebee's doesnt have any $10 burgers. The $10 is now $14
8:10 lol the cost of labor is such a tiny percent of the cost of a fast food meal. Just look at the cost of a McDonald's meal in NYC and the employees wages and benefits. Then compare that to cost of the same meal in Berlin and that employees wages and benefits. In Germany they don't just get better wages they get paid vacations but the meals aren't much more expensive than in the USA lol
Macdonald's never should have stopped frying their french fries in lard
It’s a good thing. Higher prices shed light on corporate greed and cause our overweight population to think twice and possibly make better choices.
Corporate greed plays a large factor. They want to spend millions of dollars on new celebrity ads regularly rather than keeping their prices low. Their 5 dollar meal deal isn't even that as for a burger it's 6 dollars for the meal deal where I live. If I'm going there three days in a week or month I'm better off just going to the store, buying the beef patties frozen, getting the buns and ingredients and making my own burgers.
These fast food restaurants are disconnected and are ignoring all of these videos on RUclips that millions of people are seeing highlighting the issue. They deserve the loss in sales they're experiencing because they're paying no attention to the customer's desires and instead are focused on the desires of corporate and franchise greed.
Junk food priced as sit down restaurant prices. What can go wrong.
So I can get 2x happy meals for the same price as my regular combo meal?? Gonna try that next time I visit McDonald's!
Everything is increasing in price. Fast food could be cheaper if the focus wasn’t on giving high profits to shareholders.
You clearly don't understand inflation caused by Slow Joe Briben' and Camela Harris
@@roamintheslums4851 Inflation only accounts for 1/4 to 1/3. Doubling wages is the main reason.
@@roamintheslums4851 Why do people try to give cute nicknames to their political opponents? It just makes you look silly.
@@roamintheslums4851 and you clearly have full, inexhaustible and undisputable knowledge on the topic.
@@Freak80MC so what you're saying is that Trump looks stupid? can't disagree with that!
One word that will sum up the end of copo greed in the next 4 years from now. comeuppance.
I sure hope so. They need accountability.
Basic economics. The market will charge what the consumers will bear. People are slowing and chains are responding, but we did this to ourselves.
I haven’t been to a fast food restaurant since February. I paid $15 on what I used to pay $7 for. I realized that it’s just not worth it anymore
You know it's bad when people are praising Applebee's in any way.
I tried warning people about this. People love fast food chains’ low prices, but when they become the only players in town they’ll jack their prices up to whatever they want.
It's refreshing to see the top comments correctly blaming corporate greed and not a political party. That being said, there has been a recent resurgence of $5-$7 combo deals that are decent if you're OK sharing your data on the app.
the only reason to go to fast food vs other restaurants was the price...now that the prices are so close, I have zero reason to eat crap food for those prices.
Prices and dropping quality are only one part of it for me. Fast food in my area is out-competed by grocery stores offering pre-cooked meals.
I can go in there and get a quick mediocre meal AND get some eggs, fruits, etc for later.
For actually good meals, I’m dieting, so I am learning to cook to both have something good and fits my diet parameters.
They also have dining areas at the other side of the cash registers, but I don’t use them, usually opting to return to my office 100 metres away.
Record profits. All you need to know
Exactly. Consumers need to boycott
Thanks for this! 🍟
It’s bad when even Greggs is now outside of my price range (although frozen Greggs at Iceland is much cheaper but still questionable)
I’m a hardcore batch cooker, while my wife and I eat the same meal every day and it sounds boring, it’s cheap, easy, and we like it. We spend about £1k/year on food between us, and we have the intention to turn some of our land into a farm to produce at least 90% of our calories and reduce our food expenditure by 75% (probably realistically a reduction of 50% with the costs of farming) - although land to make your own farm isn’t something everyone has (but even an average UK garden can cut costs a noticeable amount) there is always buying in bulk, batch cooking, freezing, and canning
It’s also satisfying seeing things grow
I really don't bother much with fast food anymore, unless rarely if it's a special cheap meal deal, like the current Hardee's $5.99 Original Bag Combo. You'd be better off going to a local place that'll be probably cheaper and taste better.
I use to eat fast food whenever I had $-$3 dollars to spare but now I only eat out once maybe twice a month. It's just to expensive to eat regularly!
@@torablack Look at it as a blessing in disguise. A lot of it is not good for you and a family run place would offer something cheaper, actually tastes better, they'll care about the quality, and better for you.
@@guyk768 you might be right. I have been getting better at cooking meals at home since it's too expensive to eat fast food regularly.
CEOs really need that money and nobody under them has balls to speak up......
We just don't eat out as much anymore. It's so much cheaper to fix meals at home, It tastes good, more relaxing and healthier too.
We can’t blame it on min wage, McDonald’s makes their franchise owners pay for the land the company owns and then there’s the fees that go along with it. So why does McDonald’s blame min wage for the raise prices?
I use the apps and always get discounts. well worth the minimal effort.
See, the reason why we are so furious is right there. "Restaurants have to pass on rising costs to consumers." *No they fucking don't.* If I have less money to spend because everything got more expensive, *they* can take a loss of profits too. You serve the people, not Wall Street.
Small mom and pop shops are now cheaper than McDonald's. They also keep pushing their app, which defeats the purpose of fast food.
Fast food is actually having to pay its employee's more of a living wage. Even though, at $15 an hour, it's hard even living off of that wage. Remember that most employees are only part time. Yet, it's absolutely ridiculous that the Federal minimum wage is only $7.25.
It's not ridiculous. There shouldn't be a mandated minimum. Once again, the economy is screwed by political dummies interfering.
People can’t afford it… Supply costs have gone up, which has increased prices. CEO pay has gone up, but the average worker pay has largely lagged behind.
Inflation is a tool used by the owner class to redistribute wealth.
The food prices go up but my pay rate stays the same. I'd go work for a different restaurant, but they all pay the same shitty wage. No wonder I put in so much overtime.
My grandma and I went to Wendy's yesterday and bought a Krabby Patty meal, chili baked potato and large chili on the side. It was $28 and change. WTF
All these videos talking about fast food increases are always so surface level. Glad you at least _touched_ on all the increases in back-end costs. I work in a different industry, but it feels like customers think we're gouging them. It's true we increased our prices slightly higher than inflation, but if you're dealing with year long supply contracts during a time of high inflation you make sure to give a healthy buffer especially if the rate is climbing at a record pace. otherwise you could wind up making nothing when you collect.
Inflation has slowed down significantly tho
Because they know that stupid people will still pay for it!!!
I stopped eating McD's when it made me sick and I'll never go back.
I heard a guy say the regular meal prices were so high that he gave up and took a kid's meal. Boy, was the mom of that kid mad.
Uhhh fast food is still cheaper than many options. It’s all relative. Look at inflation and minimum wage.
People think a McDonald’s 16yo can make $20 an hour and still get a cheeseburger for 39 cents. It literally makes no sense.
it starts with suppliers. they are colluding to charge as much possible and avoid free market forces. just check out the agristats scandal from last spring, which quickly got swept under the rug
It's unfortunate that fast food prices have risen so much. However, I think it does have an unintended benefit. Due to the price increases, Americans seem to be eating less fast food in general. For most of my adult life, I've eaten fast food an average of about 2 times per week. Though, in the last year or 2, my average has dropped to just 1 time per week. From what I've read, many other people are reducing their fast food intake as well due to the cost.
Because first was Inovation and "How sell fast, good and cheap food" and now is..... Money "How much money people can pay for this trash food".
Search "Domino's tests limits of what humans will eat" for a partial answer.
If that price is expensive you can imagine what price my country gonna go with if usd1 equal to $4...
Its probably better for everyone that fast food is expensive now. Fresh meat and produce is expensive now too, but its way better for your health. You can also cut the costs if you're smart about where you buy stuff and how much you meal prep.
Yesterday My wife went to Nielsen’s Frozen Custard. I got a large cheeseburger for $5.29 and a large drink for $1.49. My wife got a Jr burger $3.29 and a $1.49 drink, and we just went halfsies on the fries $4.29. So with tax we managed to keep around $16.
These companies think people are stupid, stop supporting corporate greedy.
Jack In The Box is still high. Even their value menu is still pricey.
I've been to the oldest McDonald's restaurant. When I was there. I felt like I died and went to McHeaven.
Unhappy meals
If people don't know about it, there's a 1962 holdout Golden Arches McDonald's in San Jose, CA that has done a similar thing with the Downey location and have that structure for seating off of the modern, larger restaurant behind it! Almaden Road in San Jose!
It's because people are stupid enough to pay that much....like they have to have McDonald's to survive.
Profit margins rise exponentially, while salaries do not
I can't understand the logic behind anyone going to McDonalds in 2024. You can get a much higher quality meal for the same price (if not cheaper)
At this point I can go to Five guys and get a infinitely better burger than I can at McDonald's for the same damn price. Like $12 for a quarter pounder here. They've gotten higher purely because of corporate greed. McDonald's makes more than enough with millions of customers to not need to rise prices as they have.
"Lets offer the 5 dollar meal using items that were on the dollar menu"
I remember paying $1.35 just for a Big Mac sandwich in the 80's and smoking was allowed in restaurants.
That's why you paid less.
I am glad to pay more and get rid of the smokers around me.
😂
🤤🤤🤤
The prices might not come down do to inflation,but they need to because of greedflation. Record profits with high inflation equals nothing but greed and a lack of care for your customers.
The Applebees guy is off yes, it’s the same price for the meal but you are expected to pay an additional $10-25 in tips
Wasn't that bad 4-8 years ago.
I stopped setting foot in McDonald's a while ago. I refuse to paint these insane prices. Even if you go to Burger King in the area where I live they have two Whopper Juniors for $5. McDonald's has nothing
not true - they got boogers underneath their table with a side of solidified bubblegum - and that's free!
$1.89 for a cheeseburger at Burger King today.
People dont use the apps it seems. Never paid more than $9 for any meal at any one of the stores.
In California, at Popeyes the chicken sandwich is now $5. But if you get a combo, it's $10.99?? Why is it ok to charge $6 bucks for JUST fries and a coke?? Thats maybe worth $1. I never buy combos. And i only buy fast food with coupons.
