    There is no way this would hold up in my country if they are advertising prices and you get there and the price is more from a legal perspective. They would not be able to advertise if they did this. Also we don’t have Wendy’s…

      Sure they can “Wendy’s lunch menu, up to X” or “Wendy’s night snack, as low as Y”

        I imagine it’d be handled kind of like how McDonald’s “1,2,3 Dollar menu” doesn’t have a single item under 2 dollars in my area.
