happy meals must be a loss leader for McDs. i cant see how they can make anymoney on the meal and the, sometimes quite decent, toy. Only Ã,£1.99 isnt it?

its now Ã,£2.10, but that even doesnt pay for the new toys (IMHO)
The build quality on the new MP3 type thing, is amazing.

Aye, Ã,£1.99

Well, seperately itd cost..

79p for a cheeseburger/99p for 4 nuggets/69p for a hamburger
89p for a soft drink, 79p if its a fruit shoot, Ã,£1.19 if its a tropicana OJ
79p for the fries
Ã,£1.00 for the toy (seperately)

Ã,£3.97 for the most expensive options! Haha

What I find funny is with the employee discount card I can get a breakfast meal for Ã,£1.50.. and if you get an OJ with the meal (which can be like a double sausage and egg muffin with a hasbrown) Im paying 30p for all the food. They must be making a loss on that!


Random babbling about prices. :p

I cant remember sorry.
Ã,£1.99 is what I use to pay, I thought it went up, I dont understand how I got the Ã,£2.10 price, but I really cant remember

Serious

Theyre a minimum profit thing or lossleader depending, they still make a profit on the adults accompanying the children though and in later life they hope the kids will keep coming back and buying their rot...
