I know some of you are going to view this as heresy, but here goes. Have you ever stopped to consider how a burger can cost a dollar? Or a chicken sandwich or chicken nuggets, for that matter. I realize, of course, that McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's etc.. buy in bulk. But, we are talking about a meat patty, slice of cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles and don't forget the bun. "My friends," as John McCain likes to say, you can't hardly get a slice of cheese for a dollar. With that in mind, just what kind of burger or chicken are they serving? So, next time you are at the drive-thru, stop and ask yourself, if you really want a bock for a buck.

I'm still wondering how a 5 pouind bag of potatoes grown in France can be cheaper than a 5 pound bag of potatoes grown here, in my own state-yet,somehow, Wal-Mart manages it.(I bought the US grown potatoes - in case you should wonder.)
My apologies "pound". It's been one of those days.
Who's selling burgers for a dollar? It has to be some kind of a promotional deal, right? The last time I recall burgers being sold for a dollar in our local market was when Wendy's opened their new restaurant here a couple of years ago. It didn't last long.
I've boycotted McDonald's, so they are a non entity to me, dollar-burgers or not.
Down in this neck of the woods... Wendy's, McDonald's, Burger King etc... all have a dollar menu. And the burger on that menu happens to be a dollar. If, that is, you want to call a burger that can be had for a dollar, a burger?
Okay, so it's a competitive scheme, like the "gas wars" of old, the purpose being to draw in more traffic and thus to make sales beyond the so-called "dollar menu"?
...nice mug, by the way. Looks just like ya. ;-)
The photo looks odd in the icon format, but like a regular photo if I go to your profile.
I'm hopin ya weren't taking that yerself, and if you were, I hope the vehicle was stopped at the time.
If not, may you be stopped by a female officer so you can test out that good looking deal you claimed over at Websters. lol
