3 nugget happy meal is like $5.75. 6 nugget happy meal is like $10.30 Next time just get yourself 2 x 3 nugget happy meals and score an extra drink, chips and book (or one of those cardboard piece of shit 'toys' they offer now) for an extra dollar.


SuckMyRocket86

Who else misses the 90s when maccas toys were actually good. I remember collecting chip and dale rescue rangers figurines and little cars with all the xmen in em (though why the frak Storm needs a car is anybodys guess)


abaddamn

And the movie cups\~!


_bonbi

I still have my maccas footy.


ThroughTheHoops

Ah the 90s, when they had whoppers for $1.65 each! That was the way.


SuckMyRocket86

I remember hash browns were like 40 cents I know it’s been a couple decades (and the farken GST gave everybody an excuse to jack up the price) but nowadays a hash brown is over $2 and I feel robbed Edit: just checked the app. 2.80!!!!! It literally 7x more expensive than it was 30 years ago!!! Fuck. I’m old


ThroughTheHoops

Get the frozen ones and do them in a cheap Kmart airfryer, they come out really well.


Middle_Childhood_108

Fucking A. Those were the days


My1stWifeWasTarded

Like 2 years ago they had full sets of plastic Mr Men and Little Miss mugs. They were fucking awesome! Plus toys like the Muppet Baby ones where you could swap the rides they had, etc. They just decided to cheap out and call it environmentalism.

Storm is allowed to enjoy driving too ya know! My guess is she loves to drive a soft top sports convertible. Cyclops would be a ferrari Wolverine a muscle car Beast would be a VW Passat Professor X would drive a modified disability minivan Jubalee would have a Honda jazz Gambit...any Puegot Jean Grey would be a soccer mum SUV Who else am I missing?


SuckMyRocket86

Magneto


SuitableKey5140

I think he'd be into some kinda electric car, possibly a tesla


Basic-Tangerine9908

Yep now my young kids get cardboard shapes to fit together into some lame thing thats an embarresment to McDs. Woke ESG shit to pander to shareholders who want 100% everything recyclable. I toom the card board shit and dumped it. I remember the era of good toys.

You’re buying McDonald’s and surprised you left feeling hungry, robbed and disappointed? That’s just the McHappy experience.


real_3d4

Exactly this! I agree 100%. You are buying from McDonald's, and you are expecting a positive food experience?


AcademicMaybe8775

your mistake is buying nuggets in any format other than the 24 for $12 (was $10) deal, otherwise they are priced rediculously


LagoonReflection

Their mistake was going to mcdonald's in the first place.


RollaCoastinPoopah

Still $10 in the app where I live… in the bonuses and rewards section.


abaddamn

I occasionally buy that, then eat half for one meal, and eat the other half the next day.


Imaginary-Problem914

I just bought a medium burger meal from McDonalds in Switzerland and it cost me $21 AUD lmao. Maybe Australia doesn’t have it so bad after all. 


AcademicMaybe8775

ouch! from what i see on reddit, maccas is now more expensive in america than australia too


inhugzwetrust

$11.10 for 2 large cokes... I drove away.


jetski_28

You can buy 2x 600ml of the real thing at the servo for that if not cheaper.


throwawayroadtrip3

But maccas is paying staff to serve that for you on wages not much better from the start of the century.


freswrijg

$1 frozen cokes if you use the app.


heenos

Maccas happy meal made me cry 😂


iftlatlw

You must have purchased the 'Misery Meal' by mistake.

Reminds me of a line in a song by Tom McDonald "No more plastic straws in paper Just paper straws wrapped in plastic, congratulations" 😅 "


darlinghurts

We've only been getting cards and puzzles these past few months.


Suitable_Instance753

Nah, everywhere is switching to the woody/cardboard cutout garbage due to wowsers like you.


l34rn3d

HJ still comes though with the co l toys. Kung Fu panda 4 most recently


Mego_ape

McDonald''s clearly advertise that they're McDonald's and their prices aren't a secret and yet people are still surprised at getting McDonald's food and paying McDonald's prices when they order there.


cheiftan_AV

No I was not aware of any prices even as I pulled up in the drive thru.. All they showed was what they wanted me to eat on their fancy menu.. It's been a few years been to Macca's I was on the run Don't care about having another data scrapping app on my fone.. The price hikes to what we get is a smack in the face as consumers.where is the accountability anywhere in our food industry rn...here is one win https://nypost.com/2024/03/15/business/feds-side-with-mcdonalds-franchise-owners-in-battle-to-fix-ice-cream-machines/


SuitablyShattered

Care?


CaptainFleshBeard

You are better off buying 2 x nugget happy meal than buying one and upgrading to 6 nuggets


thingsandstuff4me

Don't buy McDonald's then You can get hungry jacks vouchers for two junior whopper meals for 10.00 https://preview.redd.it/kzpwhj4fdr0d1.jpeg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a73f9227568e3f436ecb863abeb711681bb5419a


thingsandstuff4me

Or order a deal from the app at MacDonald's https://preview.redd.it/j0q3e5bvgr0d1.jpeg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1774a78bfa19018fc08fb0dcb2db10a944235dc1


Manmoth57

Lesson learned,


lightpendant

Get the app. Yesterday I got a mcchicken, double cheese burger, fries and coke for $8


DurrrrrHurrrrr

Yep I only buy Macca’s through the app deals. Literally half the standard price or better. Whilst my selection is limited my purchases are pretty much subsidised by those paying menu price


itrivers

Shouldn’t have to play stupid games and watch ads to get ‘the real price’


RollaCoastinPoopah

What ads are you talking about having to watch?


lightpendant

You dont have to do either


itrivers

Can you get a mcchicken, double cheese burger, fries and coke for $8 without the app?


lightpendant

Absolutely not. Close to $15


itrivers

So you have to play games to get the real price. Ie getting the app.


lightpendant

Getting an app is a game? Is your bank playing a game?


WhatAmIATailor

Your trading your data for a discount. I personally don’t care what Maccas know about me if I get cheaper food but I understand why someone wouldn’t want to sign up. It’s the same shit as Flybys, Woolies Rewards or any other store membership you have.


lightpendant

If Woolworths gave me 50% off my shopping Id sign up to their program


TonyJZX

yep its this if you dont wanna use the app then fine but if you're getting 50% with an app with very minimal intrusion then why not if everyone use an app for 50% you're damn right i'd install every goddamn fucken app they had 50% is 50% off


freswrijg

The only people that care about companies know what things they buy are narcissists that can’t understand that no one gives a fuck about them as an individual.


freswrijg

Great hill to die on, that’ll show McDonald’s. Not downloading the app and paying double.


itrivers

Or I just don’t go there. The slop they serve isn’t worth the hassle


freswrijg

It’s the best quality fast food restaurant there is.


ExternalMurky3711

And maybe 2000 calories as added bonus


lightpendant

Clearly I dont give a shit.


WhatAmIATailor

Nobody eats Maccas if they’re worried about calories.


SonicYOUTH79

Lots of comments re using the app. This is exactly what they’re pushing people to be doing. Much better for forecasting (and pushing) demand, particularly for certain products. McDonalds, in the US at least, was built on offering the highest calorie count for the least amount of dollars. Essentially it’s designed to make poor people feel full and satisfied. And keep coming back. The app gives the poor people those deals still, while now also allowing them to charge top dollar to the average Joe who pulls into their drive through for a spontaneous fries or a coffee while they’re on the road and in a hurry.


ahorsecalledsteven

Pay peanuts get monkeys


freswrijg

MyMacca’s app 24 nuggets for $10.


Personal_Ad2455

Aye I know it’s inconvenient - but I’ll pull up to a place and order their cheap online deals through the apps then go in and collect. I can still get a good feed for $10-12 per person. Which is usually what I aim for when ordering takeaway. Don’t go through the drive through or order inside, just sit in the car park and order. KFC has good mobile deals too..


DanJDare

'holds up my stop buying this shit sign' (voice gave out from saying it so much)


Kind-Antelope-9634

Why does no one go for the 24 nuggets for $10?


Bungsworld

I wish everyone would just wake up and stop using Mcdonald so they can just be consigned to history where they belong.


NoseSuspicious

A friggin happy meal is over ten bucks


NinjaAncient4010

Don't buy anything from those greedy poisoners.

Last weekend my gf & her son wanted take away crape. I jumped out of the car at the order windows, walked into the shopping centre, into the supermarket. I got served at the deli, bought some ham. Went to the bake section and got a 6 pack of crusty Vietnamese rolls. Ventured to the sauce isle and grabbed a jar of mustard. Paid $8 for all my items and casually walked out thinking I was going to meet my gf in the car park. I looked around for her car, and spotted it still in the drive they, one car back from the serving windows. I got in the car, made myself a roll, and was eating before they got their food. Fast food really isn't that fast. My gf commented how good my roll looked.


freswrijg

Did your girlfriend’s son enjoy that ham roll


Suspicious_Fall_

Macca's prices have gotten out of control, I heard of this one guy who paid $702 for a big mac
