Customers Furious With McDonald’s After Showing Receipt

Published on April 16, 2024

There is a guy on TikTok who doesn’t like McDonald’s because he thinks the prices have gone up too much.

He was shocked to find that his usual meal of a Smoky Double Quarter Pounder BLT burger, big fries, and Sprite cost more than $16 when he went to the nearby McDonald’s.

Is it just me, or does food cost more these days? It’s too bad that getting food, which used to be cheap, now costs a lot.

The cost of living has gone up in the US because of high inflation over the past year. This is because prices for things like food and energy have gone up a lot.

People in the US usually thought that McDonald’s was a safe place to get a cheap meal.

Some people who make videos on TikTok, like Christopher Olive, have strangely said that this might not be true.

He posted a video last year about his most recent McDonald’s meal, which was a Smoky Double Quarter Pounder BLT burger, a big order of fries, and a Sprite.

If we think about how much something should cost, this meal is definitely more expensive than a Happy Meal.

You could get a meal like this for less than $10, maybe even less than that a few years ago.

So, Christopher was shocked when he saw that his meal cost a whopping $16.10 on the bill.

In the film, he says, “I understand there’s a shortage of workers, I know wages have gone up, and other factors, but… sixteen dollars?”

“Sixteen dollars for a burger, large fries, and a drink. It’s just unbelievable.”

Nearly 180,000 people have watched the movie so far, and many have left comments. Different people seem to have different thoughts on this.

Some people think that $16 is way too much money to spend on a hamburger.

It is important to remember, though, that when costs rise, it changes how food is made and delivered, which is why prices rise.

“Are these McDonald’s prices like Five Guys?” To which Christopher responded, “It’s unbelievable.”

“It’s no longer easy or cheap,” said someone else. “I might as well go to the store and buy ground beef.”

It made someone else say, “I cook a lot more of my own food these days because of things like this.” The TikToker replied, “Exactly. I make 90 percent of the food I eat, and this really surprised me.”

But not every person agrees. Some people think he picked the most expensive thing on the menu.

“This guy ordered the most expensive meal they offer and acted surprised,” someone wrote. Someone else said, “You got the DOUBLE DELUXE BACON quarter pounder, which is actually the most costly choice on the whole menu.”

Some people also told McDonald’s fans how to save money. For example, one person said, “Get the app. You can have a meal at McDonald’s for less than $6 every time.”

Another person added, “Use the McDonald’s app, they often have discounts like 50% off and other deals.”
