    $5.35 after taxes. I just want answers on why it’s wrong and Wendy’s will never answer me 🥲

      In your county. Taxes here (Sacramento, California) are 8.75%

      Not that we’d begrudge a few pennies from a Wendy’s purchase.

      You don’t get to keep your 4 for $4 marketing when you raise it to $5. It smacks of capitalism desperation.

        Yeah I’d be fine if it were just the tax, but literally marketing something one way and charging a 25% markup is just false advertising. Either change the name of the deal or change the price.

        Am I petty for making such a fuss about $1, hell yeah, but is it annoying that “value” meals from every major fast food chain are going up while keeping the same name/title, absolutely

            I’ve always thought that but never had a way to prove it, so I just assumed it was millennial boomer brain on my part.

              Yeah. A lot of people have noticed the shrinking burgers. Not just Wendy’s, either. Been most all of the fast food places doing it. Wendy’s double stack is just the one that ticks me off the most, because that’s the main thing I’d go for if I was getting a fast food burger from anywhere.

                The double stack was definitely a nostalgia hit for me. It’s something my grandmother would always get for me so it was a nice memory. Picking up a double stack nowadays really sours part of that for me. Better to just avoid them now.
