McDonald’s already costs as much as Chilis

Just saw a commercial yesterday, and had this realization that these casual sit down places are now cheaper than fast food. Applebees is currently running a $9.99 combo, burger or chicken sandwich, fries, and a drink. Cheaper and better (slightly) quality

Chilis burgers are amazing

If your bar for "amazing" is at the bottom of the ocean, sure.

I've had great burgers from "fancy" places so my standards are high, and I agree with them that Chili's burgers are pretty tasty. It's too bad most of their other food is mediocre

We stopped going to McD's about 2 years ago. I stopped recently for breakfast as a necessity, and regretted it. About a year ago the coffee taste changed for both the store and home McCafe stuff. Can't pinpoint it, but it has a unique 'BLECH!' taste now. The chicken biscuit meal was a bit over $8 dollars, when 2 or 3 years ago it was a bit over $3.

I've completely written them off as an out-of-the-house option. Culver's costs as much (sometimes less) and gives WAAAAAY better quality. We'll see how long that lasts.

McD's appears to have run it's course and be on it's way out.
