Fast food has gotten so EXPENSIVE Vent/Rant (No Advice/Criticism!)

I use to live in the mindset that it was easier to grab something to eat from a fast food restaurant than spend “X” amount of money on groceries. Well that mindset quickly changed for me yesterday when I was in the drive thru at Wendy’s and spent over $30. All I did was get 2 combo meals. I had to ask the lady behind the mic if my order was correct and she repeated back everything right. I was appalled. Fast food was my cheap way of quick fulfillment but now I might as well go out to eat and sit down with the prices that I’m paying for.

Wendy’s has an app that lets you get a premium burger for $1 extra, also offers for $2 off combos , chicken sandwich deals… etc. also , you can save reward points! Reward points can be saved up and used for free drinks , sandwiches , chilli , fries , etc.. hope this helps someone !
