what are you smoking.
i used to go to mcd/wendy all the time because you could get a meal for $5 or less. we used to get high, drive to mcdonalds and eat 2-3 hamburgers each and split a large fry for like $10 for three people. it was very cheap and it was open late.
now to feed three people at mcdonalds it's 30-40 bucks.
