This here Meredith McDonald's has had exactly ONE manager, John, since it opened in 1987.

Recently stopped back in, first time-long time for breakfast, got a big breakfast without pancakes and a coffee, no other beverage, and it cost like $7.50 for the plastic plate with eggs, a hash brown, a muffin and a flat sausage.

Am I missing something here? This is very very expensive for what it used to cost, about $4.50 before the pandemic started in March, 2020 and is now $7.50?

And another thing, the dollar menu with the one dollar hamburgs and one dollar fries and freebie cup of water has disappeared too, and now costs about $4.50.

Gimme a break here, Meredith McDonald's ..... so, where did the old Meredith McDonald's go? Apparently, it has left town due to the pandemic or something and will probably never return. Is like McDonald's is no longer McDonald's and has become McXpensive's! ...
Your observations about price are 100% correct.

I also recently visited McXepensive and witnessed a family of 4 spend over $50 for dinner! $50+ dollars at McDs, I didnt even think their cash registers went up this high,,,

Seems like food prices have doubled in the last year. Along with gasoline, electricity, etc,,, Cant wait to see what is going to happen with taxes soon. Its like we are becoming Europe. If this is progress, I will happily turn back the clock!
