Sorry I havent been on lemmy as often so delayed reply.
My standard order is 2 bacon mcdoubles(currently $4.89 a piece), a large fry($4.99) and a lemonade($2.49) or a Mcafe($5.99), so it ends up being $17.29 for my food or 18.64 after tax, or if I wanted a cafe it would be 19.76 or 21.34 after tax.
Just 5 years ago I could get 2 bacon mcdoubles, 2 large fries, a 20 piece nugget and a lemonade for about 18$ (granted that was with a deal).
Back in 2016 I could get that same bacon burger meal above for a little over 12. I can’t warrent it.

There’s a 20% off orders over $15 deal you qualify for. Making it $15.08 before tax

I use that coupon every once and awhile, but that still makes it 3$ more than what it used to be, and requires me to use a coupon when I could redeem for points or use something else. And thats also forcing me to use their app. Which the app itself is actual trash now. They removed the search bar for items, they added point expiration(ok this was awhile ago) they now charge you immediately upon placing the order, despite not actually starting the order until your GPS detects you are at the establishment. Theres no ability to cancel and order once placed, regardless if its started being made. Their FAQ page intentionally lies to you telling you that every purchase is final, despite the fact that if they haven’t started making the order, it will eventually refund the purchase. They added a waiver for class actions to the apps TOS meaning if you want to sue you must use third party attribution. It massively harvests data. All for the benefit of paying more for something that I used to be able to spend 12$ not even 10 years ago on.
