I had a big huge cinnamon roll at Whataburger for breakfast, $2.99 plus my free senior coffee. I hate that it's come to this, me eating all this sugar first thing, but the sausage egg cheese biscuit meal I used to get has now been jacked all the way past 8 bucks. Lol **** no I don't think so. Not outta this old man's wallet, not today, not evaaa.

Lol I just looked this up online and my old eyes misread the menu. So to be fair $6.59 isn't quite as bad as $8.59. Still not good!

Yup. I thought I had already used mine for the week but no, it was last Wednesday before the refresh. Thankful for the redhead and her bounteous fresh beef.

She was out of orange dreamsicle frosty tho so I did not get to try that.

Wing sauce on the side is a pro move, but I expect nothing less from dmatz.

I've been indulging at Popeyes @Venetian on the reg. First time I've lived near one. It's amazing how consistently perfect their classic sandwich is. I can think of very few things that live up to the hype similarly.

I soon will embark on Popeye's for a meal trip. I have enough points for a free chicken sandwich. It will be glorious.

Today on Good Friday, I go to Red Robin for their awesome fish sandwich. My waitress tells me it was discontinued last week (!!!!). Sigh. Pivoted to the fish and chips.

I had that fish sandwich at RR last year, can confirm it was yums. RIP.

The size of RRs burgers seem to be on the lol small ranger now. Shrinkflation for sure. The steak fries are basic AF and they didn't season them.

In comparison got another daily double plus mustard ketchup and pickles plus free medium fries. $4 pretax. They really loaded up the fry sack today, #blessed

We did Shake Shack a few weeks ago and definitely serious shrinkflation on the burger sizes, but not on the prices. What we had was really good, but legit McD's basic cheeseburger sized burgers.

Shake shack offering a free shake with $10 purchase in-app when picking up. I will be taking advantage of this, I don’t care what the haters say.

Yeah, SS is good, no hate. Just value was BRUTAL, but this obv helps a lot. And I'm not one in this thread who is value-obsessed, I like it of course, but want what's good, but volume of food for amount paid was legit laughable.
