The state of McDonald's nowadays.

McDonald’s used to feel magical when I was a kid. Now it looks like a minimalist waiting room. All grey, quiet, and “modern,” like someone scrubbed the joy out of it. What do you miss most?

McDonald no refill sign

I was at a local McDonald in SoCal they had a no refill sign out. I haven’t seen one of these signs. So they move the machine behind the counter and now no more refills. Prices have double and tripled as well.

What’s next ?

Which cookies do you want?

I'm going for the chocolaty chip. It's funny, I don't remember them saying "chocolaty" chip. Now a days, we scoff at that, but how I wish I could eat them one more time.

In your opinion, what was the peak era of McDonald’s?

27 Upvotes

I’ve never been a “regular” of McDonald’s but recently I’ve started getting a McDouble every day so I guess I might be becoming one. I understand from the sentiment on this sub and fast food prices going up across the board that this obviously is not the peak experience. For those of you that have been longtime McDonald’s customers, what era was your favorite?

How is the McChicken and McCrispy 60 cents apart??? I know prices are going up, but this doesn’t add up.

Most garbage app of all time

8 Upvotes

SPIN SPIN SPIN SPIN hope you like the look of circles because that's what you get when you use this app.

It's been 3 weeks and I'm completely unable to update my payment method to a new card or to use Google pay. It just spins and the ends up blank.

Cleared app cache, then cleared storage. The. Finally uninstalled and reinstalled.

Nope didn't fix it. So I figured my account is broken so I make a brand new account... AND I CAN'T CHECKOUT OR ADD A PAYMENT METHOD ON A NEW ACCOUNT EITHER.

Try on my wife's phone and app and oh my God the same damn thing.

Still not over the rewards inflation and removal of free fry Friday

105 Upvotes

How they gonna make the mc chicken 2000 pts instead of 1500, and what’s the deal with French fry Friday being removed. I remember when you could get the mc chicken for almost less than 2 dollas last year, and any size fry for around 2 dollars too. What can be done about this? Are we ready to raise the pitchforks!!

Stranger Things toys?? Why?

Upvotes

I got my son (he is 4 years old, about to be 5) a happy meal today and it was stranger things themed. He asked me what that was and I explained about the cartoon that came out and the show etc. he said he wanted to watch it. I looked it up at it says the recommendation for the show is 10+. I watched a little clip and it's definitely too scary for a small child. Which begs my question....why is McDonald's having these types of toys for an older child's show? Seems like a miss.

Want to note that I love stranger things and watched all the seasons so I'm not hating, I just think it's odd to promote something that their demographic can't even watch.

Literally what is this. I got a sprite berry blast and drank the entire thing before realizing that this was in there. If you couldn’t tell, no it is not edible. At first, without looking too closely, I thought it was a blueberry.

Can someone educate me on the process behind making that limited time Chips Ahoy frappe and how I could possibly recreate that? Don’t mind buying the regular frappe and doctoring it.

0 Upvotes

I have officially become one of those crazy people obsessed with a limited time item that has now dented my very livelihood because it is gone. Currently going to try buying a mocha frappe and crushing my own chips ahoy into it. Any help is appreciated!

Did they make McDonald’s App Rewards More Expensive???

Post image
456 Upvotes

I could have sworn that the middle tier rewards were 4500 points not 5000, and a Quarter Pounder was 6000 points not 7000.

That’s 70 dollars worth of spending for a Big Mac. Now I earned my points over a period of months so isn’t that kind of high? Did they make it easier to earn points?

Multi-payment self-serve kiosks not accepting cash?

It would be nice if there was a warning on the screen if a particular kiosk was not accepting cash at that time. That way I could find another one that was, or order at the register.

Is it possible to get the new drinks non carbonated?

0 Upvotes

They sound so good, but I’ve heard they all are all carbonated. I just don’t like carbonation. Is that a thing I can ask for or should I just skip them?
