At our local McDonalds you can get a large drink for $.69 instead of the $1.50 it normally is. Yet, I saw and heard 3 people in front of me in line order like a Big Mac and a small drink. Now, a small drink is still $1.00. So here they are paying $.31 more for a smaller cup when they could get the huge one for less. They could even fill the big one up halfway to be the same amount of drink as the small, yet they insist on paying more. What gives??
I've seen people do this with value meals too. They'll order the exact same items as a value meal and when asked if they want the meal price instead by the McDonalds workers they say no and demand what they asked for.
Are they just idiots??

Well its just they might not get it. I would rather just get a meal than fries a drink and a burger cause some places charge more it really just depends on where you go how much money you got.

For one thing, people don't read and can't do basic math. But I think it has a lot to do with the American need for instant gratificaiton and they WANT IT NOW. When you want something immediately, you pay more for it... which is how convenience stores stay in business.

yes they are. besides it is better to cook on your own. it is cheaper, and it tastes better. And fresh food taste better than processed food that has been made months in advanced. I have worked in many fast food restaurants, and none of them had anything fresh, it was all shipped from some place far away.

They are probably in a hurry and want what they think is the best deal but won't take the time to THINK about it.

they're just losers and they're not paying attention. Or they think that a dollar here or there doesn't add up.
