    Wendy’s Biggie Bag is a solid deal.

    Also, Taco Bell, but only if you know what you’re doing. There’s a $6 box that gets you all you need for a meal, but I think you need the app to order it. Otherwise, your best bet is multiple items from the $1-$2 menu. The combos are a trap, stay away from those.

      These 2 are the only answers I can think of. Since everyone’s dollar menus are dead and gone, the Wendy’s or Taco Bell $5 for 4 items is the best of what remains.

    I can get a burrito cheaper: made out of actual food, way healthier for me and way more filling. And I can ask for extra hot sauce

    The Costco Hot Dog is a 1/4lb hot dog sold at the international warehouse club Costco’s food courts. It is notable for its price, which has remained steady at $1.50 in a combo deal including a soda at United States locations since its introduction in 1984. That price has become increasingly low relative to inflation and spawned a cult following

    McDonald’s is still cheap but only if you use the app for deals and points. They want to drive people to the app to eventually hire one less employee at each store, which will save them more money. They keep the app cheaper to drive this change.

    We have all but stopped drive thru when out for a concert or other events. What we do now is pack some home made sandwiches with some chips, etc for the drive home.

    I still do mcd sometimes when working but I only order off the deals or redeeming points for something. I never pay full price.
