Has anybody noticed the recent price increase for a McDonald's happy meal?

makes perfect sense...they fry all their stuff in crude oil and since the price per gallon has gone up, they had to increase sales somewhere :)

No, because I do not eat at CrapDonalds, and if I did, it certainly wouldn't be a Happy Meal.

Hardee's p0wn3s j00 - They're not for little boys, so they don't come with little toys ;)

In meaningful news, Wendy's jacked up the prices on some stuff and downsized other things on their "Super Value Menu."

I highly doubt it went from $2.10 to $2.80 in a year time.
We do price change from time to time but at max, its about $.40 and even that was for a value meal.
Maybe you haven't been around in a while and it just seems like the price went up that much.
Or that its different McDonalds..different franchises.

Happy/Fun/Kids meals are getting expensive all over. Used to be ~ $2 now definitely closing in on $3, even more for "big kids" type meals. Another travesty is McD's charging .40 extra for the cheeseburger over the hamburger pricing.

McDonald's has the nastiest food on Earth. Oh wait, I don't really think we should even call it food.

Feeding your kids McDonald's is such a white trash/ghetto thing to do.

Do you realize that Wendy's have had their 99cent menu for over 15 yrs now ??
Name something else that have remained the same in price for 15 yrs ???

Do you realize that the 99 cent menu should be the $1.54 menu now because of inflation ??
Seriously, fastfood can't expect to keep the $1 menu much longer if they want to remain profitable.
This is why they have to jack the prices on everything else or lower the portions.
