McDonald's goes outside the box with 'Blitz Box'

Weak that it doesn't come with drinks

 

[The Boston Dangler]

i'm willing to guess that almost all of these sold will be to people eating the entire thing.

 

[dainthomas]

Multi-person? That's probably enough for one Chiefs fan.

 

[corwin]

I see a snack in my future:awe:

After putting down a 50 pack of nuggets once before this has to be next on my list

 

[waggy]

oh not a bad deal. that would feed me and both my kids.

 

[Tweak155]

Seems over priced. If you just throw out numbers - $3/burger, $2/med fry and $3 for the nuggets (you can get 20 for $5) you get $13.

They should at least sell this at a deal.

 

[slayer202]

how much does that normally cost...
quick google

2x quarter pounds ~ 3.69 x 2 = $7.38
10 nuggets ~ $4.29
2 medium fries ~ 1.49 x 2 = $2.98
______________________________
= 14.65

 

[TwiceOver]

The first multi-person boxed meal in the U.S.

Not by a long shot. The Taco John's "Six pack and a pound" originally came in a box.

But this comes in a box!

I always opt for the Big Mac anytime there's a freebie that let's you choose between that and a Quarter Pounder. Never saw the appeal.

Ugh, Big Macs. I hate thousand island dressing.

 

[surfsatwerk]

What about dessert?

 

[Sonikku]

Poor value at that price. If you really want to save money going to mcdonalds, go to Michiganwendys.com and print out their online coupons. (Free #1 burger with purchase of small fries and drink is the best) Then go to the drive through and explain the coupon and they'll match it as a free big mac with a small fri and drink purchase. Mcdonalds accepts their competitors coupons, so it's completely legit.

I can't stand the sauce on Big macs. when i worked at McDonalds (when i was 17) and they would have buy 1 get one free on big macs i would get them with mayo, mustard and ketchup instead.

I wasn't sure on the prices's but now that you put it down i think that is close to it.

 

[The Boston Dangler]

Poor value at that price.

1. it costs more than the individual prices

2. mcdonalds is low-grade dog food, at any price

WTF you talkin 'bout? It's "special sauce"!

 

[drebo]

I went into a Taco Bell once to order 10 tacos. The tacos were $0.89 at the time. They had their "10 taco or burrito box" for $9.99 and couldn't understand why I didn't want that, but instead just wanted 10 tacos.

 

[james1701]

No drinks, =pass for savings

 

[_Rick_]

And here I thought it would be about the Blitz.

You'd need stamps, and get a ratio that leaves you hungry.
You have to eat in the dark.
And the men will have to wait outside.

We'll have more fat people in Kansas City in a few weeks.

They come in a box!

 

[Fritzo]

At first I thought it had one of every sandwich they offer in it. I was like "I don't even like McDonalds and I'd buy that."

Alas....I said alas.

 

[mmntech]

As if America isn't fat enough. You know some fattie is going to pick this up for themselves.

 

[FreshCrabLegs]

Poor value at that price.

Agreed.

Doesn't seem like a good deal.

1 Med Fries
5 McNuggets
1 Quarter Pounder

All for $7.50.

I'd understand if they threw in a K.C. Chiefs Flavor of the Week Bobblehead to justify that price. Sort of like a Happy Meal for adults.

Oh well.
