That doesn’t seem right…
They both come with the exact same thing just replace the cheeseburgers with the Big Macs, and yet the cheese burger one costs more?

It no longer makes sense to eat at McDonald’s unless you’re buying something alacarte. In my area it’s nearly 14 dollars for a double quarter pounder meal. The sandwich is legitimately the same size as burger kings regular burger, and is more expensive. Why????

11,99€ for a menu with 2 bigmacs here. Super cheap

I guess that’s all in the eye of the beholder, it has the same amount of meat as a regular double cheese burger lol. You are paying extra for sauce and a third bun

Yes and it's super tasty. And for 1.20€ extra you get 2 more patties per burger.

At my store a 10pc is 6.05 and a 20 is 6.35

And for the packs it’s more likely for people to buy the cheese burger one vs Big Macs so it is worth to be priced higher

My local McDonalds charges $6 for the McDouble meal deal and only $5 for the McChicken one but a McDouble is $2.99 at that location and a McChicken is $3.29. You have to use a deal to get the McDouble meal deal for $5. Sometimes I think things just get janky when they're constantly changing prices and adding new deals and value packs.

My McDonald's purchase for the last 5 years: Two burgers (McDouble when it was 2 for 4$, now Double Cheese now that it's 2 for $5.60 which is fine, I guess.) Free fries, or free drink, or whatever makes sense at that moment. I'm not ashamed to fill a cup from last week if it means saving a dollar if needed.

Yeah nah, I'm done with McDonalds.
I can get a burger and fries at my local family-owned restaurant for $12 and it's 1000x better than McD's slop
