I switched to mostly cooking for myself sometime last year, really just trying to save money, but I feel significantly less fatigued day to day and more focused and don’t wake up with random stomach pain anymore.
Yeah… I only do fast food using apps and only go if there’s a good enough “discount”(quotes because it’s really what the prices should be anyway, obvs.).
The Jimmy Johns app is atrocious in this regard.
“Buy 16 sandwiches this month for free cookie!”
Fucken nerds.
Screw that. Last month I got free burgers with minimum $1 purchase at burger king. Two cookies =$1 exactly.
Pack soda can and go, lol. I thinkI added cheese for 30¢
And all you have to do is give the corporation complete access to your personal cell phone!
Looking at you five guys.
Story time. We t to five guys, go up to the country asked for a burger combo. Person behind counter says they don’t have combos so I have to say out loud: lemme get a burger fries and a coke.
Like I get it but a combo is a burger fries and a coke.
Aren’t combos usually discounted over everything getting billed individually? I would understand that as useful information that I’m not saving anything and might as well deviate if I like.
Yeah. I could see someone ordering a combo and then complain when instead of a combo they have to pay for burger, fries and drink. It’s stupid that 5 guys doesn’t have a combo option but the person behind the counter did what they’re supposed to do, take the order and make sure the person ordering also understands what they’re ordering.
In my days, you got a week’s worth of calories for $3.50
In my days you could buy 420 chickens for $0.69.
Fucking Applebee’s is right now cheaper than all of them with $10 for a burger and fries.
Sure, but then the wait staff expects you to tip at least 20% for simply being given one, and if you don’t you’re an asshole.
yes but still cheaper
Learn to cook. Honestly. When you know what you’re doing you can make simple and nutritious meals for a fraction of what you’d pay for this junk food.
When I was in high school, we’d split a gram of weed four ways and go to Wendy’s for the $4.20 meal. For less than ten bucks, you got stoned, a junior bacon cheese, four nuggets, small fry, and a small chocolate frosty. This was in the mid oughts so not that long ago!
The dude that never went to in-n-out
Behold the superior hamburger, ye mighty, and despair:
In-n-out is mid and their fries are like cardboard.
Name better fast food at a comparative price.
The point is the same it ever was. You sacrifice money for time and convenience. What’s so hard to understand about that? Some will be more or less expensive than others and no one forced you to choose either option
