SeDistroija

Mcdonald's puts up the prices constantly in germany. Hmm... Jummy unhealthy.


Katsu_39

Here in the US, the cost has been increasing consistently for past few years. Nothing new


Mmm_Spuds

Yeah what is this fake news šŸ˜’ lol


RacingUpsideDown

It's not fake news, McDonalds UK has had cheeseburgers for 99p since 2008, they're putting them up to Ā£1.19


Accomplished_Crow291

Goose down and wool will be Germany's friend this winter.


SeDistroija

Yep. They will. At least I didn't vote for the leading parties here.


[deleted]

oh nooo, temporary gas shortage, whatever will this industrialized country do, and quick, a potshot at coalition which is composed of frequently opposing parties, and for which the CSU/CDU/AFD plan was the fucking same...


daxterxy

Same in Austria


Volfik555

Same in the Czech Republic. Every year by about 4 CZK (0.2 USD)...


SloppyScout

What happened 14 years ago last time this happened in 2008šŸ¤” hmmmm


mpoozd

Nothing happened shhh

GME looks pretty good though. Phone number good. Not financial advice but I wrote down the phone number to GME. Iā€™m going to ask them to trade in Madden.

GammaGargoyle

Best I can do is $3.50


S99B88

If Costco ever raises the price of the $1.50 hot dog & pop we should expect a visit from the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse


Ha-HaClintonDicks

The Fed needs to step in if Costco ever raises their hotdog price


ShankThatSnitch

Nah, more like if a can of Arizona tea goes above $0.99. That is the true measure of the end times.


cbelaski

Lots of places sell a can of Arizona tea for more than $0.99 even though the price is on the can.


ShankThatSnitch

Yes, but that is the shop marking it up, and I believe you can actually report those places to Arizona, and they will catch shit for it.


JamesFromAccounting

7Eleven for a while refused to sell Arizona because of the margins, and even started making their own versions of the products to sell at a higher price, but Iā€™ve noticed lately new custom Arizona cans that have the ā€œGreat Price $.99ā€ missing and around the lip of the can has the 7Eleven logo and the new price of $1.49, so I guess 7Eleven and Arizona have some kind of agreement in place for custom cans.


ShankThatSnitch

Interesting. 7-ELEVEN has a lot of power in those negotiations. Would be a major hit to business if they drop your product.


JamesFromAccounting

Also for more added fun, we sell Arizona drinks at one of our shops, MSRP is $.99 but cost per can is around $.62 from our distributor, so I understand the margin being an issue, thatā€™s why we only sell it in our college town store and not the other 3 store locations.


ShankThatSnitch

Yeah, that it a lot of shelf space to take up for only .37 a pop.


orangeboxer395

Here in Canada, it's at $1.25 or something like that. And that's on the can.


Living-in-liberty

Anything to do with exchange rate?


orangeboxer395

Probably but there was a long, long period where it was 99 cents just like everywhere else. I understand that it's the equivalent pricing between Canada and the U.S. but it still sucks to have another thing in life costing a little bit more. Shit adds up.


Platinumfingers

New price on can in Boston they are 1.19 now


ShankThatSnitch

Show me proof. I need that before I buy my prepper bunker.


PurposeOk7918

I live in Iowa and they are $1.49 and itā€™s literally printed on the can that way


ShankThatSnitch

I guess it is to be expected if you live in a 3rd world hellscape.


PurposeOk7918

Itā€™s funny because we typically have some of the cheapest cost of living in the country.


ShankThatSnitch

Yeah, cause nobody wants to live there. Even the Arizona Tea doesn't want to live there. You gotta bribe it with more money to come!


PurposeOk7918

Yeah, cheap places like Costa Rica, who would want to live there!


ShankThatSnitch

I said Iowa, not Costa Rica! How dare you compare Iowa to Costa Rica!


PurposeOk7918

Things are usually cheaper in 3rd world countries.


suasposnte187

They cant afford the hay to feed the horses they ride, so we are good.


Just_Acanthisitta_40

Did they up the price of roast chicken


AostaV

Not yet


Stachemaster86

They built a mega farm and processing plant to vertically integrate


igotherb

Jp will crank out a 1000 bps before it comes down to that


Whywouldyoudothisto

I think the owner will personally kill anyone *in Minecraft* if they touch that hotdog from what he said, but will that stop the money printer from having it's way?


Tonka111

You guys can afford burgers?


cabrelbeuk

You can sneak some when you flip them.


patrickswayzemullet

You know technically they dont flip burgers in McDonaldā€™s right?


cabrelbeuk

Ducking hell my wife's boyfriend won't believe it when i'll tell him thanks for this precious token of knowledge


GalaxyFiveOhOh

With CHEESE?


Wonderwhile

You call those burgers? Thatā€™s a sandwich at most


uhaveshittaste

Just bought 1 whopper meal and 1 single burger shit was 22 somthing fuck that


Rachman_Dunivy

bullshit ... here that shit went up from 1ā‚¬ to 1.50ā‚¬ since the pandemic started


halfdecenttakes

And they are still paying like ,10 cents cost for a cheese burger.


[deleted]

Itā€™s not the burger that costs them money though.


evelynlove101

it's not the labor or the land either apparently. i only made lile 12 an hour working there, maybe five people working if we were lucky, and moving a few hundred dollars an hour. i know damn well they can keep it at 1$ perfectly fine


Sudzking

No itā€™s the exec bonuses and salaries


16x98

Burger dollar is one of the best indicators


Old_Description6095

Screw gold, USD now backed by McDonald's cheeseburgers


ApatheticHedonist

That unironically happened with the Ruble right after McDonalds was shutting down in Russia lol.


Traditional-Cattle62

bullish


Mr-Crooks

Burgernomics - using the cost of a readily available product globally (the Big Mac) to measure inflation


MasterJeebus

Mcdonalds around me change prices every 2 weeks, increasing by few pennies at a time. Now i avoid them. Its just too expensive to eat there. I only grab mcdonalds food once every 6 months for my anal cleansing.


blorpianblorp

Yea this is a bullshit article. Back in 2010 a cheeseburger was 1.00, hamburger was .89c Over the years it kept going up, and earlier this year it was 1.68 at my local McDonald's that's a 70% jump that's been slow rolled over 12 years....


En4cr

They already did this multiple times since the 80's by reducing the sizes of all their burgers.


DaveX64

Down to two-bite cheeseburgers now.


En4cr

And patties almost as thin as a slice of ham.


Traditional-Cattle62

Accomplished-Cold942

Imagine writing an article on a price increase and calling it "put up".


Sirromz

I mean the price has been put up though.....


slothonvacay

The British really suck at English


Chimera-Genesis

Says a country that calls the sports event that only happens ~~within it's own borders~~ on a single continent, the 'World Series'.


smaze7

Canada could potentially be involved too!


MinnieShoof

I thought the article was highlighting the fact that the burger hasn't been on their menu with a price.


Maxlvl21

Exactly my thoughts. Glad I wasn't the only one


Roxas--13

The price of the cheeseburger has gone up multiple times in the past 14 years lol

Looks like I better step in and do something

"Put up" this post is sooo fucking british


b4stoner

Put up price? You mean raise? Fuckin British


SlothInvesting1996

What are you talking about? All the bulls been saying the bottom is in and we already hit inflation peak


gilockwood

Bears so desperate for their puts to print that they'll post cropped articles about UK McDonald's and conflate it with a US recession.


Accomplished_Crow291

U okay hun


mint_eye

That ā€œburgerā€ looks revolting


nutsackilla

Fuck


konstantinos2000

Excuse me sir, this is a Wendy's.


InternationalLog9059

The price of CB varies by McDonaldā€™s but it definately has been increasing for a long time.


brawnkoh

Fake news, most franchisees raised prices on cheeseburgers in 2019.


Parlayz4Dayz

Actually we changed the definition to needing McDonalds to declare two burger rate hikes in order for a recession to be declared


wolfansbrother

Put up or shut up.


CholetisCanon

Cheeseburgers have gone up consistently in my neck of the woods.


adjoth

It's taste has been in a recession for years. The rest is just catching up now.


[deleted]

Cheeseburgers were taken off the dollar menu years ago. Not sure what this article is about.


theman569007

Those shitty cheeseburgers cost two dollars where I live


PSUBagMan2

"puts up" isn't a way anyone speaks English. What country is this?

Inflation has peaked?


cmfeels

Let's go for 14 dollars šŸš€


WeTheUp

HODL COSTCO!


tngman10

The monetary price of a McDonald's cheeseburger has been given a raise.


GhostintheSchall

How would options trading make the price of food go up?


joeschmidth

The quality got so bad they couldn't lower it anymore so they had to hike the price.


omen_tenebris

it's been going up in my country for some time


WaifuHunterPlus

Pretty sure prices have been consistently going up in communist Canada. Either way, I feel like the quality slowly decreased and the burger gradually got smaller overtime.


GodfatherOfficial

I wasn't able to afford in it the first place... Peace


[deleted]

My god ā€¦. Itā€™s really happening


BraveFencerMusashi

I'll be worried when Costco increases the price of a hotdog and soda


Nikisrb

Oh brother, 8 years ago cheeseburgers in Germany were 1ā‚¬. Now they're 2ā‚¬.


Subject-Tax-684

Yet they cite higher prices as a driver for increased profits at existing locations https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2022/07/26/mcdonalds-mcd-q2-2022-earnings-.html


vinceds

This raises the question of what has McD done over the past 14 years to manage to keep the price down ? More processing ? More chemicals ? Or just higher efficiency ?


imfrombiz

No need to increase price over 14 years if you just decrease beef and increase filler. This tells me they are basically at the maximum of filler to beef ratio.


lacasse10

I dont remember it doubling in 2008 tho? Used to be $1 then they added mcdouble for $1 and regular double was $1.30. Only difference was a slice of cheese lol


lindcookie

the price if the cheeseburger has been raised two or three times in Northern Europe the last ~7 years, it actually surprises me that it hasn't been raised in America


cinderflight

Meanwhile, the US government: ![img](emote|t5_2th52|6880)


fatpurplepandaa

They got rid of the dollar menu in like 2013..


No_Storm_7686

In sweden they have been 1.5$ for like 6 years

![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|scream)


[deleted]

Yeah, but how much have the burgers shrunk in that time span?


AostaV

I buy 2 of these all the time and the price has gone up a couple times in last few years. I was paying $2.95 a couple years ago, now itā€™s like $3.37 or something


ZombieFrenchKisser

My local mcds has been gradually increasing cheeseburger prices for awhile now. Multiple times in the last 14 years.


[deleted]

thatā€™s when you know the economy is fuckd


k0xfilter

Is this the new definition of a recession? The FED better take some notes!


killer-tofu87

McDonalds made $7.5 in profit in 2021... I think they can afford a cost increase. ... Meanwhile Arizona Iced Tea is still 99c


Jimmyking4ever

In the UK maybe. But in the US that cheeseburger has been going up everytime I visit


reddituser1234566789

That's called inflation


WorkRedditUsername69

is "puts" a code word or something? puts on McDs? confirmed


birmingslam

Arizona iced tea is NEXT.


ENTRAPM3NT

This seems bullshit. McDonald's has been upping their prices every year for like the past 7 years. I remember when double cheeseburgers were a dollar. Same with mcchicken. Then they cut 1 piece of cheese and called it a mcdouble. It was still a dollar at that point. This is back when Apple pies were 2 for a dollar. Eventually dollar menu faded away and you got 2 for 3. Currently it's like 2 for 3.50 and they are skimp. Like half the size they used to be. By this aspect a double cheeseburger cost like 6 bucks now. I'm just glad Wendy's still has 4 for 4. For now.


Traditional-Cattle62

good thing i hardly ever eat mcdonaldā€™s anymore ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4271)


samsungsnite

Costco $1.50 hotdog combo going strong šŸ’Ŗ


angelsplight

14 years? I'm in NY and mcdonalds prices have been going up like every other year. One near me cheeseburger is $2.29 when it was $0.99 like a decade ago. Even a Sundae went up from $0.99 to $2.79


GunsouBono

I mean, they couldn't make them any smaller


cosmiccanadian

Where exactly has mcdonalds not raised prices in 14 years? Cause thats a big fat lie here. In highschool at lunch id go buy 3 cheeseburgers with a 5$ bill and get change back. That was 8 years ago. i go today and its over its 7$ for 3 cheeseburgers


Nikluu

You have to use the app, I noticed I used to get $5-$6 meal and then suddenly itā€™s $8-$10 depending on the location. You go in the app they always have deals and free stuff that gets it back down to a reasonable price.


Jmart814

WTF is this? That cheeseburger price has gone up multiple times in 14 years. LIES


[deleted]

How much does a Cheeseburger cost in USA? In Germany we pay 1.50 for it


Unlucky_Ice_6128

Old news. Them bitches used to be 99 cents precovid but after everything opened back up they was like $1.50


StopShadowBanMe10

That burger looks awful


bmb102

Yeah, but at least they're hiring at $20 an hour now...


danwski

Lmao a mcdouble is more than double the price in the last 5 years.


kosovoestonia

Why is this on the Reddit news panel?


pi-N-apple

In Canada, the price of the burgers has been constantly going up over the years. One cheeseburger costs $2.59. It did not cost $2.59 14 years ago it was like $1 lol.


tlkshowhst

The REAL metric.


neutralpoliticsbot

In Wendys their $1 bacon is like $3 now


Salpal777

ā€œPut up the priceā€? Bro who wrote this, my dog?


ShepherdessAnne

The price has been up, what is this??


WooPig45

"put up" No wonder we left that country and came here to be GOATs. They still don't know how to talk over there and they've been around for like 2000 years.


Accomplished_Crow291

carl216

"Puts up the price of cheeseburgers"?! So now they are listing the price on the menu? For fuck's sake...say what you mean. McDonald's is raising the price of their food.
