McDonalds has claimed to be trying to lower menu prices to maintain its affordability

So far we've only seen the under $3 menu which showcases menu items that were already below $3 before.

How they're trying to milk customers for every penny:

April 21st 2026- removed all buy one get one for 1 dollar items

May 4 (March 17 in 🇬🇧) 2026 - lowered the value of reward points. No more 1500 point cheeseburgers or 6000 point happy meals.

In 2023 McDonalds announced they would phase out self serve drink fountains by 2032. Since then stores have slowly started no longer allowing refills

A McDouble costs $2.50(depending on where you are) now, more than double what it was about 10 years ago. This is not just inflation, this is greed. McDonalds is far from it's dollar menu days, it's entered into its money milking machine phase. Cheap food for inflated prices.

I'm sorry I know these topics have been posted about before but I want the conversation to keep going. I don't plan to return to McDonalds anytime soon. Do you think McDonalds is going to far to increase profit margins?
