Just imagine the prices if they didn't have tens of millions of people who don't know how to use a phone who pay full price to subsidize our BOGO meals.

The new savory chili sauce Rick's is pimping was good. It has some good heat to it.

Omg

Bennigans now has "Bennigans on the fly" .. coming to food courts and places like that

Although it is listed as coming soon, it is part of "foodiehall" near me in jersey, and i had a monte cristo tonight and it brought back such memories

omg u r taking me back in time (90s) to late night happy hour, cheap burgers and meeting random weird hot chicks during late night happy hour.

I have not seen an open Bennigans since the early 2000s.

I may have to do a TR for Bennigans - Pakistan

It's probably been a month since I've had ff. Crappy weather has turned me into a hermit, can't even be bothered to turn the car on for free fries Friday.

I've booked a shift ton of camping trips starting May, so we'll be back on the wagon in no time.

Where in the world does McDonald's offer a $6 qpc combo as posted earlier ITT

Big Mac not QPC unless it's one of those things it tailors to your purchase history. It's been in the deals for a few weeks now.

Just check out their FB account now rated at 1.1 stars with tons of pissed off people. I won't be visiting any time soon even though it's one of the few fast food places I go to. Gotta send a message how this **** is already out of control everywhere.

Classic corpo tactics, Wendy’s is now walking it back saying they never meant it like that. Shenanigans.

Ha. Well better to admit your mistake than dig in deeper.

Better model would be to (quietly) have high normal prices, and have surge discounts. Baconator is now 27 bucks, but on a random Tuesday afternoon at 3p, it's a steal at 11.99.

Followed by the next stage, where they do it anyway and deny that they're doing it if anyone questions it.

The goal is to just get through the shitstorm and reap the rewards.

and that $2 dmatz lip slap burger is a thing of beauty

I just got my Wendy's $2 double. The burger was great if you like things well-done...

I might even describe the burger as a little "crunchy".

I bought a double cheeseburger at Sonic yesterday and lucked into a 2 dollar discount, I guess just for Feb 29. It wasn't nearly as good as the old Sonic burgers I remember.
