If you only have to be within a certain region of McDonalds and you don't order by staff, but through an app on your phone, how come these basketball-americans have to go through the drive-thru???? Do they expect the staff to download the BK app and do it for them? They're backing up the line for the McChicken.

You can get 5x as much soda for $1 most weeks by buying a 2liter at the right store. You just have to fridge it for a few hours and you're good

No, you are not, you are in the 600 ft radius of one. Unless you live in the end of the world, often you can find a BK near too. Obviously it's not for people, who need to travel a lot to get to any of these.

>even if it takes you just 15 minutes to get your whopper then you still spent the same amount of money in your time
What? Most people don't earn shit in their leasure time and that's when they go to eat or in lunchbreak, but that's paid. They don't earn shit sitting at home, they don't earn shit while going for the burger, but at least they can spare a few bucks. Hurr-durr, it's a bad deal.

It's a fucking deal morons, you're paying a penny for a burger. There is no food you can buy for cheaper than that. Fast food is a ripoff 9 times out of 10, but this is the one time where it truly is not. And you're fucking complaining because it's not convenient enough for you?
I don't eat fast food, I don't own a car, it'll take me about an hour, but I'm gonna take advantage of this deal. Why the fuck wouldn't I? I'm paying a penny to be fed, and it's a fucking hamburger. Can't even make a bowl of rice with that value.
You guys are retards and will complain about anything. You don't have to take advantage of this. But if you're willing to pay for fast food, but won't use this deal, then you're a complete idiot.

It's not just some random weird idea someone came up with out of nowhere. They're doing it because they found out a very large number or McDonalds customers mistakenly ask for whoppers. So this would let all those people who are apathetic enough about McDonald's vs. Burger King to not know the difference realize they can go to the other chain instead for an extremely discounted whopper, which will then make BK stand out more in their memory as the actual whopper location.

^^^This.
I hate soda machines so much. I base who I get uber eats delivery from in large part on the restaurant having an option for actual bottled soda. Paper cup soda is trash. And no:
>>11572557
It's not just about adding more syrup. The syrup *distribution* is all inconsistent and fucked up compared to a bottled soda. I really wanted to like paper cup machine soda a while back before restaurant delivery through phone apps took off because it would have let me re-up on soda by using the fast food place right next to my apartment, but every time I tried it just ended in me throwing it out because it was so off from what a legitimate sealed container of soda would have provided.
