minus-squareathairmor@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up24·4 months agoThat’s $8.40 in inflation adjusted dollars. That meal would be at least $12-$15 at most places these days
minus-squarefrosty99c@midwest.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up12·edit-24 months agoDefinitely agree with you, but I went to their website to confirm. Special price for baskets this summer is 8.99. Big boy platter is 10.50. So, not as egregious as I would’ve thought
minus-squareathairmor@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up9·4 months agoOk, not AS egregious. I’m mostly surprised that there are still Big Boy’s. Now, I wonder about Howard Johnson’s and Ponderosa.
minus-squaretpihkal@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·4 months agoHonestly, that seems pretty damn good these days. A Big Mac meal near me is around $14-15 and a Big Boy is so much better.
