I'd say the real concern here is that someone is spending over $30 at Burger King. For that much I could have gone somewhere good.

Not around here, take out is going to be $40-50+ for two people even at cheap places.

* Pricing can change for a variety of reasons.

Not good enough there, King.

The enshittification continues in ever more surprising and confusing ways.

Wait until it hits your groceries, too.

Price tags, which are normally printed out individually for items using paper and ink, are slowly being replaced by digital displays that grocers say will increase productivity and potentially lower prices for consumers.

They always throw that line out there.

Bullshit. It never serves the customer’s interest. Just like every big-box store was supposed to lower prices and increase variety for the consumer, instead they drove small stores out of business, reduced variety to save costs, sell the same junk, and now control pricing where you no longer have choices.
