I call "bullshit" on Wendy's

In order to spin what appears to be an upcoming price increase on a few menu items, Wendy's is graciously offering their small Frosty, small chili, baked potato, and Double Stack burger for 99 cents "for a limited time" in honor of their 40th anniversary.


Wait, weren't these items always 99 cents? This reminds me when they advertised how you got two whole strips of bacon on a Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger after years of giving three and when they introduced their "Chicken Temptations" line essentially as a ploy to raise the price on the Spicy Chicken sandwich.

I would, therefore, like to give a big fat "up your's" to Wendy's, as they obviously assume that their customers are stupid. Or maybe they have empirical data suggesting that we are all indeed 'tarded. Or maybe it is just because the Wendy's brain trust is from Ohio and just can't help it.

Whatever it is, I'm off to Burger King...

I'm glad to see that I'm not the only person who saw this.

I'll forgive them if they bring back the Big Bacon Classic.

Nice observation.

I thought the same thing when I saw there 99cent limited time only menu items.

Is it me or do their fries suck these days?

And their Chili needs to be thicker.

IMO, they've always had crappy fries. When practical, I've been known to get a sandwich or burger from W and then go to McD to get some fries.
