Dave Thomas is sitting up in Hamburger Heaven ready to beat some mfers with a spatula over these shenanigans

I’m ready to beat some mfers with a spatula over these shenanigans. Big management mfers are so goddamn out of touch they couldn’t use a smartphone.

[-] Holyginz@lemmy.world 15 points 8 months ago

They just don't give a shit about people. They see people as ATMs and none of the companies will learn until it hits a point people can't afford anything anymore cause prices are so high and wages are so low its impossible to buy anything but the absolute bare necessities.

They used to provide value now they extract it.

[-] metaStatic@kbin.social 2 points 8 months ago

any value added was purely incidental. Capitalism's only goal has always been the extraction of value for the owning class without fair consideration.

How long until they have a pamphlet for Klarna at Wendy's

[-] awwwyissss@lemm.ee 4 points 8 months ago

Pretty sure this whole thing is a Wendy's ad campaign. I'd bet my life savings they get a bunch of sales from it.

The 4 for $4 meal is $6 dollars at my local Wendy's.

This is more than just Wendy's, fast food in general is through the roof now. McDonald's was known for years for its dollar menu, they no longer have a dollar menu it's a $1 $2 $3 menu and the only thing on there that is a dollar is sauces. Fast food restaurants are doing a damn good job at pricing themselves out of the market. I can't remember the last time I went to your typical fast food joint, it's almost always more cost effective to go to a place that offers carryout and just order it ahead. My current go to has been Domino's, I can spend $18 dollars for two burgers a large fry and a drink or I can spend $18 getting 2 pizzas or 1 pizza and cheesy bread or for $4 for more for two pizzas, a thing of chicken and a 2 Liter soda,

There's a hole-in-the-wall taqueria near my work that for less than $4 will nab me two gigantic legit-mexican-street-food style tacos.

Haven't gone to fast food in ages - shit's too expensive. At this point I'm probably around 30% taco.

[-] bruhduh@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

Best fast food places right now is local no name street food places, me and my homies go to such places, cheap and tasty as fuck

[-] Shayeta@feddit.de 11 points 8 months ago

Nonono, you're looking at this wrong. The lunch price is the BASE price! That means that any time other than lunch you're actually getting a discount!

[-] Stovetop@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

Think of the savings! Isn't it nice to know that this burger which normally costs $25 can be yours for as low as $15.99 if you get it from our late night menu?

[-] pancakes@sh.itjust.works 3 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

If they actually did this and discounted on off hours I might be more sold on it. Not for eating at lunch time, but for getting $0.50 large fries at 11pm.

[-] GrundlButter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 8 months ago

They'll do that, and then they'll raise base prices. So it'll be $3 large fries after 11PM, but $7 at noon. This is clear to see a mile away, it's just a phased in cash grab.

[-] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 9 points 8 months ago

Massive step back for Wendy's in my eyes who, while they still served unhealthy fast food, I always thought of as the good one.

[-] Semi-Hemi-Demigod@kbin.social 11 points 8 months ago

That's the neat part: There are no good ones.

[-] just_change_it@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

The owner who cared is dead. The ones who have control now are more interested in profits than trying to be good.

Wendy's used to be the pioneer of the value menu too.

I swear this shit is a publicity stunt
