They were making way too much money to begin with, nevermind growth.

Also McDonald’s is just a real estate company, I’m guessing the franchisees are complaining they aren’t going to stick around.

Their food sucks. 🤷‍♂️

carvine1 ,

Oh wow… Increased prices resulted in people going else where… Who would have seen that coming 🤔

They largely removed their vegan options. Nuff said.

Death_Equity ,

Because low demand, the demand is low because McDonald’s is a bigger joint. Also most vegans are ethical vegans and wouldn’t support giving business to a huge player in the cattle slaughter game.

The bigger reason I don’t go to McDonald’s is because of the self serve kiosks they’ve forced on us instead of paying people to run the registers.

Price is still a reason though, so I’m glad they are at least considering that as well.

i don’t get why people complain about this – i’d so so much rather type my order in myself, see what’s in everything, make modifications easily, etc without having to talk to someone. get those workers on the line and help ease the load on the kitchen

SaltySalamander ,

They didn't "get those workers on the line" though. They fired them. Fuck McDonalds, and FUCK ANY BUSINESS that forces these fucking things on us. I'm not there to work, I'm there to order food and eat. If you can't be bothered to take my order, I can't be bothered to drop a fucking dime on your business.

They weren’t paying them a living wage in the first place let them replace it with screens

Of course RagingRobot would support this.

Maybe i am just too old and go to McDonald’s too infrequently, but i can never figure out how to get my order done properly on the kiosks. Try ordering a McGriddle combo with a Carmel latte. There’s no visible option for that. Unless you ppan on doing a basic order, the kiosks suck

doodledup ,

Also, I feel a bit awkward when I order two BigMacs at the register.

When fast food is as much or more than grocery store sushi, fuck it, I’ll park the car and go grab some fish.

boreengreen ,

Shitty food for retarded prices. I’ll just go to the pizza place on the next corner and get a burger there. Better burger, better fries, same price, better surroundings.

JimmyBigSausage ,

$12 🤔 No, $15😀🤭 Me rethinks.

Scrolled through for a while and didn’t see anyone complaining about ditching coupons for their app bullshit. I’m not using an app for fast food

PlasticExistence ,

I’m currently waffling on whether or not to use my bank account info with the app for a small gas station chain. It would get me a $0.10 discount per gallon, but I’d have to use the app at the pump. I get that they’d save fees with credit card processors so that’s why they’re offering it, but using a credit card is so much less effort and doesn’t require me to keep yet another app on my phone.

Get a Costco membership then get gas at Costco with the Costco Visa. Sure, they know everything about you, but at least it’s a single company and you’re not giving them direct access to your actual bank account.

I drove all the way from Chicagoland to around Pensacola and back, only got gas at Costcos along the way. Saved probably $20 just in price difference between Costco and other nearby stations, while also earning 4% back on the Visa.

But how else are they going to complete their digital transformation and leverage their industry-leading customer volume to deliver high-quality consumer data and drive growth for shareholders? Why don’t you care about the shareholders?!

Gestrid ,

Eh, I’m okay with an app as long as it’s good.

The McDonald’s app is not good. At all. In the slightest. It won’t even let me login 99% of the time.

Pacattack57 ,

I think they did something to throttle user access. I was using it once 3-4 times a week. Either just the Friday fries or a drink for $1. Now I can’t log in anymore. Seems to me like they wanted to stop people from using it.

Four McDoubles for 20 bucks. Fuck off!

CosmicTurtle0 ,

At that price, Five Guys.

At once?

Death_Equity ,

In your mouth and filling your belly.

AlecSadler ,

I remember them being $1 each and it was the fastest/easiest way for me to get some protein in a pinch.

Then they were like 2 for $3, which was still OK.

But $5 is insane.

ef9357 ,

Notice they are too embarrassed to post their prices online. To see the price, you have to put the item in the cart then use some bs 3rd party app. WTF McDs?
