Customers frustrated as fast-food prices continue to rise

For the most part agree. But back to the cost which is the main point of the video......the price alone for 1-2 people is why my bf and I only eat out once EVERY OTHER weekend. We both make in the 75k-90k range EACH and childfree but regular groceries prices alone has us fighting for our lives lol.

@@shopece8807 And the best thing? The American public will still do nothing about it. Because we can do nothing we will deal with inflation until we all starve or steal in mass.

LOL, easier said than done. I did not "stop", but eat out once in a while. Eating at fast foods 3x a week , every week is just financial lunacy. I find it perplexing why people go to In N Out, wait one hour in their cars to pay $25 for a combo.

A whole roast chicken at Costco is $6.00

Facts!!!!! Only way it changes is we don’t go. Price and demand

@@VegasbornI go to taco trucks or any food trucks instead now! 🤷‍♂️ Might be a 10 minute wait, but it’s worth it

If you don't like the prices, go get some coupons.

This! Capitalism people! You can complain but hey you still buying

So people should stop eating?

Those are overpriced as well..

Go to those sit down places every so often then you really really look forward to then rather than thinking those garbage fast food places are your right!

I don’t eat fast food anymore either, you can have a way healthier, tastier meal at home and it don’t cost as much. Not to mention the portion size..

I beg to differ. Better food actually costs more than u think

Yeah I stopped going to McDonald's when it was hitting $15 for a combo.

There ya go. I'm much healthier since I started making most of my meals at home. Less grease that way and I put more vegetables in my food than any of these places offer.

I think everyone is lazy and doesnt want to spend the time cooking😂

Fr I walked in on my fast food chain and rodent dookie was all over the floors, shelves and tables we make food on.

Annnd you do not think that it does take time, using a crock pot surely helps. And she work full time, maybe the family can pitched in and help her. There is a ideal🤔

You’re also talking about a completely different time period where things were cheap and people( for the most part) had more free time on their hands. Not saying this is your situation as I don’t know you or your mother-in-law but I do feel like you’re oversimplifying things a bit .

My father in law walked to school 100 miles uphill each way in torrential blizzards AND barefoot.

Okay but what time where you eating?

It is crazy people blame the struggling

That's pretty much the nature of our inflation right now. People whining about rising prices yet lining up to pay them.

I agree. What really confuses me is all the coffee shops. Making coffee at home is so much cheaper.

@@amarx6248 Way cheaper, by a decimal place at least. I'll go to a coffee shop once in a great while if someone wants to meet there for some reason, but otherwise I make my own. If you go every single day or work day at least, that's a hundred or two burned up every month right there.

@@kenofken9458 same. People complain they don’t have money but they’ll use credit cards and pay interest to buy hundreds on coffee a month. Or whatever it is their screens tell them to buy. My husband noticed how silly it was on the coffee thing, but then later an ad for some cheap pizza crossed his screen and an hour later he was buying the pizza. It’s also weird cause cheap pizza always upsets his stomach.

People are spoiled nowadays. Just stop going to places don’t deserve our hard earned money. Especially fast food, so unhealthy.

Exactly

People are now using credit for this. So yea

More like watch how fast the workers get laid off due to unable to reach the new minimum wage demand.

What will happen is the restaurants will go out of business. Prices can't go down because the Federal Reserve and the Government are printing money like a drunken sailor. This debases the currency. Costs of food have gone down if you use a Silver dollar. Fiat money was a bad idea.

" watch these prices go down" ?!. No, more like close down. I can tell you don't run a business with at least 5-10 employees

They run the largest fast food chain in the World. Of course they make bank.

@@dublindog8038 A Costco roasted chicken is $6.00 You can make it the main course for two people for 3 meals. Take the leftover whole chicken and boil it with some veggies and noodles and make soup for a week.

@@user-vx7vi3vq1c I've actually done this and it wouldn't make that much soup. The issue being is the chicken is already cooked so it doesn't give much flavor to the boiled broth. Even a small pot you are forced to add chicken bouillon cubes to it. So it couldn't make a large enough pot for a week as you say.

@@SiXiam I’ve done it many times. Add carrots, celery and onion and bullion…Salt and pepper and some noodles. It’s makes about 6 quarts.

Well Hawaii is overpriced for everything though, isn't it?

The local burger place near me serves a gourmet burger with chips or fries and a choice of beer or soft drink for less than $15. It's also all locally sourced. If you were to go to McDonald's it would be more expensive and garbage quality.

Hawaii is the most expensive state in the U.S., on average $140,000 salary to survive.

Wow thats crazy expensive. At least there’s the option but man for that price might as well have something else.

Totally agree. They deserve to go bankrupt for the crap they serve and now the prices are ridiculous. I stopped going after a combo hit $15 for just a burger and fries and I'm still hungry after. It's too much. ✋🏻

@@Celwood yeah its called a microwave and it tastes even worse then. 🤡

In comparison to everything else, grocery store prices, restaurant prices, all of which have gone through the roof, fast food is still relatively cheap. It's only because prices have jumped up so high and so quickly that people are experiencing "price hike" shock. So fast food is still cheap, by comparison. It's just not as cheap as it used to be.

And better wages.....much better wages

They raised their prices. Not so affordable anymore. It just seems so because most other places prices are higher.

​@@stevenotero2627they've raised it by a matter of cents while still treating their employees well versus other fast food options. I bought a meal yesterday at an inn n out in West Covina and only paid 8 dollars. Still extremely affordable, I don't know what in n out you've been visiting 😂

You are so right! In-N-Out prices are still quite reasonable, and quality is great- so they are the best value by far.

@@stevenotero2627 Still extremely affordable. $9-10 here for a meal, AND they pay decent wages to their employees.

They need healthier options. But that would be even more expensive.

Going to the grocery store ain't much better

​@crzycolchris with what a meal costs at McDonald's you can get a fat steak a potato and veggie or Salad for that!

Tbf, alot of these prices are right in line with buying from the grocery store. The benefit is is already prepared and cooked. I find myself going too restaurants more now. Because fat food is touching restaurant prices too.

That's true, but that won't be a very good steak ​@@danielszymanski-jw5kq

Grocery prices have been stable for at least a year. I know because I go all the time.

I joke with store staff that prices seem to change by the hour and they agree. Prices are going up by dollars. There are some social media accounts documenting this radical change. I'm taking pictures myself to show how dramatic grocery store prices are changing in this terrible economy.

Hiw about stop voting democrat?

Their prices aren't any better some are even worse!!!

Those national fast food chains are mainly run with investor money. Anyone can buy shares to those. It’s like government run company in a way.

Do they deliver?

Not really...we are just printing fake money in the govt like it is going out of style in the USA in recent years. The more fake money our govt prints the worse it will get. Sure our corps have always been money grubbing for decades now. What has changed really is the money printing which went on steroids during the pandemic. We are paying for sitting at home quivering for years during the pandemic, forgiving student loans, paying for welfare and illegals, having endless wars, giving money to other countries, and being frivolous in general with our budget as a country. I mean...what a coincidence would it be that when we print tons of money all the corporations in all sectors magically colluded to raise prices to gouge you??? And! If that were true, wouldn't there be SOME outlier companies that would refuse to be part of the gouging cartel out of morals or even out of sheer business savvy to make more money out-competing by selling things for less than the rest of the corp cartel?

Just stop. McDonald’s profit margin and its food is pennies per serving.

No one is forcing anyone to buy fast food. The reason they can keep raising prices, is because people keep buying it.

Ford CEO makes about 20 million. About $200 a year per employee. CEO salary is not the issue. The real issue, no matter how much they raise prices, people keep buying. When you buy something, you are telling the business, your prices are fine.

@@gcanyon3114 yup. 150k employees, 150,000x30 hours a week x 50 weeks a year x a modest $2/hr pay raise = $450 million dollars. McDonald’s ceo pay, approx $18 million a year. It is so laughable that people blame ceo pay.
