They have jacked their prices up so much that I rarely go there anymore. $8 for one of their combo meals.

All fast food joints are like that now. Everything is getting too expensive.

Don't worry, though. The dollar is strong and there's no inflation.

“All fast food joints are like that now. Everything is getting too expensive.”

WE are paying for Obamacare...5 out of the 6 places where we buy cooked food on a regular basis raised their prices AT THE SAME TIME (the beginning of the year) by about 25% each.

Get used to it - it is the “new normal”. In most parts of the world, low-end restraunts don’t even exist - you and wife either pay $100 to go out to dinner, or you cook at home. We certainly are not there yet, but with Obamacare and a $15 minimum wage...we are getting there fast.

Consider it part of our “transformation”.

That has been one of the biggest lies out of the Obamao regime. “Ignoring the volatile energy component, consumer prices are up 0.00001%.” Liars, I don’t know anything that hasn’t gone up signicantly. I went to Academy to buy a pair of Stranglers the other day. $40. The same pair of Ariat boots that was $100 a few years ago is now $180.

Right... can’t eat lunch for less than 8 to 12... Dinner is 40 or more for 2 and I don’t see how people do it.
