The correct one won! ;) I enjoy the FoF on my twice yearly trip
through the MCD drivethrough.

Will be 3 times this year, the boss gave my team a $15 MCD gift card
for all the extra hours and work we're doing.

... Is this some conspiracy to make me look paranoid?

My favorite fast food fish sandwich is the Arby's King's Hawaiian Deluxe fish sandwich. That's only seasonal though, whereas I believe McDonald's has their fillet-o-fish sandwich on their menu permanently.

if you put the mcdonalds app on your stupid phone you can get that
stuff super cheap. i keep saying that here but doesn't seem to sink in.
plus if you take the whole family out and get drinks and fries, etc of course it's going to be expensive, just like it would be anywhere.

i ove pinneapple but i would have hated the 'hula burger'.

I live in a different country, trust me when I tell you McDonalds is a
once or twice a year treat.

I used to have the app. I didn't save any money, just became one more
thing I had to remember to look at.

Same. Just not on pizza.

By "treat" do you mean treating yourself to the shits for a day and a half afterwards? ;)

I've tried it, and it's not terrible. It's also not something I would order for myself, as there's so many other (and better) options. I'm also not a huge fan of ham (I can eat it, but it's not something I go out of my way to make or get), so it just doesn't work for me in any aspect.

Regards,
Nick

oh, over here you get 40% off and points to get things for free. they have sports related deals where you get a big mac for 1 dollar or 10pc nuggest for 2 bucks if someone wins.

then they have a value menu where you can get things for 5-6 bucks.

without the app it would be too expensive to justify going there for me.

you sure are being negative about restaurants all the time.
Maybe you just have poor stomach floura. maybe get some yogurt and
probiotics. maybe you have a tapeworm from those culvers butter burgers.

I think McDonald's is one of the better fast food places for offering deals in their app. That's especially helpful with fast food prices the way they are today. I think Taco Bell & Burger King used to also have some good deals in their apps, but not so much anymore. A few years ago, Taco Bell's $5 box was a pretty good deal, but they started to raise the price (about $5.50 and then $6), and now they don't have that deal anymore. They still have the boxes, but they're a bit different and they're about $9 or more where I am.

Also, a few years ago, Burger King had a deal in their app where you could get a Whopper meal with small fries & medium drink for about $5 (and then $6), and sometimes 2 Whopper meals for $9. Not anymore now. They still have that Whopper meal deal in their app, but they want something like $10.49, even with the deal in their app. I think that's pretty crazy. I've heard Burger King isn't doing very well and is having to close some of their locations, and I think I see why.
