    excerpt:

    McDonald’s has revealed the details of its highly anticipated $5 value meal, which the fast food chain hopes will rev up sluggish sales and lure back customers who have cut back.

    Beginning June 25, McDonald’s US locations are selling a “$5 Meal Deal” for a limited time. It includes a McDouble cheeseburger or a McChicken sandwich, small french fries, 4-piece chicken nuggets and small soft drink.

    price gouging by MCD has also backfired, losing its customers to fine dining establishments

    Fast food prices went crazy.

    I'm not paying $20+ for a fast food meal where half the time the quality will be really suspect.

    last time I went to a McDonald’s was during Hurricane Harvey, and that was because it was the only thing open

    loved it as a kid, but as an adult, I’m like “how did I ever used to think this was good”

    McDonald’s is a treat I’d give to my dogs after coming back from a long vacation…stop over and get them some nuggets and a burger

    It was almost getting to the point where I could be very close to either go to McDonald's or go eat out at Longhorn steakhouse for almost the same amount lol

    Fast food prices are ridiculous.

    You can still get a chicken fried chicken combo or fried fish combo at Luby's for 10.99,.
