  • One of the funniest things I ran into is after buying this very large "Family Size" bag of chips.  I open the bag and it's literally about 1/4 full, with the rest empty space.  "Settling of contents may occur" didn't come close to covering that.

    I'm still mad at them for getting rid of most of their decent breakfast menu and the dollar menu.
    I actually had a dbl quarter pounder yesterday which seemed normal. I don't eat there often though, so I guess it's hard to compare.

    I went to go buy a small strawberry shake, as seen here (barely stands taller than this lady’s hand):

    https://m.youtube.com/shorts/oF2KVSpdQnY 

    $4.09!!!

    For fluppin’ milk, cream, sugar, and artificial flavoring??

    i cancelled it when he gave me the price (for which I can buy 20 packets of Ramen noodles).

    🤦‍♂️

    I can go to Culver's and pay about .80 more for a full-size shake with real strawberries in it, and I'm happy to do so. That's just embarrassing.

    This whole charade they're playing just to keep "consumers" from panicking is asinine because its just pissing people off.

  • Went to hat creek burger restaurant the other day.  Got two regular and one small shake.  Cost difference: $1.50.  Size difference: none.
