I am all over that green apple smoothie. I won't be eating much off their regular menu for a while but the spicy chicken sandwhich for 1$ better be on this "Lovin" menu.

 

[enigmatic_alex44]

Honestly that McGriddle thread from a short while ago had me craving Sausage McMuffins today from the dollar menu for b-fast (McGriddle's are nasty syrup infused trash) and I got some today for the first time in almost 2 years.

I feel so gross, NEVER AGAIN

Spoiler

Their dollar iced coffees are so good though not gonna lie, Caramel >>>>>

BAG TRAY! LOVIN MENU! SEXY HAMBURGLAR!

McDonald's is really turning itself around with these brilliant marketing schemes!

 

[Amory]

why are they so pathologically devoted to that terrible catchphrase

 

[enigmatic_alex44]

SEXY HAMBURGLAR!

um, what?

 

[Futureman]

Ronald McDonald farts and sure enough there'll be a topic on GAF about it.

GAF hates McDs but loves to discuss it.

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

um, what?

.

 

[Trojita]

Why does the meal cost above state $4.69 and below $3.99?

 

[Sami+]

I just want my $1 McChickens dude

 

[Fox318]

"the horror"

 

[Whitman's Ghost]

They have no idea what to do at this point do they.

No.

 

[RedNumberFive]

That's enough of this "lovin" bullshit McDonalds.

 

[ViciousDS]

wait wait wait.....my dollar chicken sandwich is now thrown behind a damn value meal?

lol well then, goodbye

 

[a916]

Burger joint introduces new burger, GAF states they've lost their mind... lol okay? Did McDonalds run over GAF's cat or something?

 

[Goro Majima]

I feel like McDonald's is continuing to miss the point. These meals aren't really a value since they're just the old prices of dollar menu items crammed into a meal now.

Edit: Also after crunching the math, the $14 meal is basically a $5 20 piece nugget and then two $4.50 combos of a sandwich and a medium fries. Not really a major savings.

20 piece serves 2? Not in my house.

Literally nobody is splitting those in half. Maybe 6 or 7 year olds.

 

[SoulUnison]

I'd let him take my meat.

 

[MMarston]

 

[kirby_fox]

They have no idea what to do at this point do they.

That was my exact thought. They are throwing everything at the wall to see what sticks.

Which makes complete sense if they asked millenials what they wanted. I'm pretty sure they got every answer possible with no concrete data saying "Do this and we'll eat there" so they have no choice but to do all of it and see what works.

 

[Amory]

wait wait wait.....my dollar chicken sandwich is now thrown behind a damn value meal?

lol well then, goodbye

wait are you saying you're not lovin' it?

 

[PHOENIXZERO]

The dollar menu hasn't really been much of a thing for a while now around here.

 

[_woLf]

bring back the big & tasty and we'll talk, mcdonalds

also what if I want a dollar menu item but no fries or drink. this is terrible

 

[ViciousDS]

wait are you saying you're not lovin' it?

hahahaha, no.....I'm definitely not lovin' it.

so

ba da ba bye bye McDonalds.

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

also what if I want a dollar menu item but no fries or drink. this is terrible

Hopefully they are on another sign but I agree.

I never get meals because I don't order a drink. Unless I go inside, which is like never.

 

[SilentRacoon]

The king is dead long live the burger king.

 

[March of the Crabs]

Lovin menu sounds like McDonalds is secretly running a very cheap prostitution ring.

 

[kess]

That's enough of this "lovin" bullshit McDonalds.

Leo Burnett Agency are history's greatest monsters. Ever since getting rid of Mayor McCheese they've been going straight to shit.

In the 2000s, McDonald's experimented with the possibility of animating the characters to improve ratings. Various spots featuring the Hamburglar and other characters alongside celebrities were planned but were canceled. A conflict emerged between agencies regarding whether to continue using the characters or to follow through with the desire of ad agency Leo Burnett to elevate the "I'm lovin' it" campaign and phase out the characters completely. The latter option was chosen, and the McDonaldland characters were retired.

 

[SilentSoldier]

Lol, they get rid of the dollar menu entirely and wonder why they're struggling? Oh well, I've pretty much cut them entirely out of my diet anyway.

 

[sometimes i game]

I like Egg McMuffins, I like their $1 yogurt parfait, I do not like when I get a burger and a drink and it's $10. On the flip side, I can get the thinnest beef patty known to man with a burger off the current dollar menu, but that sucks.

why are they so pathologically devoted to that terrible catchphrase

THIS.

It's so awkward. No one wants to say "Can I get the burger off the Lovin' Menu." Stop pushing this bullshit slogan on me, it's been 84 years.

 

[DopeToast]

Fuck McDonald's. I used to love you, but you've changed, or haven't changed enough, and it's just not the same anymore.

 

[SoulUnison]

Lovin menu sounds like McDonalds is secretly running a very cheap prostitution ring.

"Yeah, I'll take two Birdies and - what the hell, live a little - a Grimace."

 

[Goro Majima]

They really do need to get off the "I'm lovin' it" marketing slogan. People hated it 10-15 years ago when it came out and people still hate it. I remember Maddox doing a big thing about it (that's how old this thing is).

"We love to see you smile" was okay but I guess it wasn't "urban" enough for their targeted audience that they started going hard after at some point.

 

[Remark]

Just bring back the actual dollar menu.

Lemme get mcdoubles for a dollar again mane ;l

 

[uncleslappy]

Just buy Five Guys and don't change a thing

 

[daveo42]

Burger looks good but I'm not going to go to McDonald's to try and get a premium burger on a budget. Either do one or the other, cause trying to have it all means losing out on sales from both ends.

 

[Hazmat]

The Lovin' Value Menu? How much for half and half in the backseat of my car?

 

[Lights and Waves]

#Pray4McDonalds

 

[kmax]

The customer's aren't lovin' it at all.

 

[TheOnlyOneHeEverFeared]

Long as you get rid of the mustard I'll eat that.

 

[crazyrabbits]

It's all about buying 10 of them and eating yourself into Valhalla.

Eat 10 McDouble's, make yourself bloated, and I myself will carry you through the gates of Valhalla.

All shiny and

*brofist*

 

[kess]

You are loving it, it's slangy and colloquial and so jaunty and DUH DUH DUH DUH DUH it's like the 1950s all over again

 

[jediyoshi]

SMH at turning everything into meals

 

[serenewarfare]

Seems like they are doing everything they could possibly do except changing the quality of ingredients.

 

[devilhawk]

The dollar menu hasn't really been much of a thing for a while now around here.

It's like a 2.5 dollar menu around here. 1.99 for a McChicken? F off.

 

[inner-G]

Nope.

Needs more breakfast all day in there

 

[sixteen-bit]

.

New hamburglar looks like he trynna become a member of Turquoise Jeep

 

[bennywhatever]

Nope.

Needs more breakfast all day in there

I still just don't understand why they won't do this. Everyone clearly wants it.

 

[jstripes]

On that note, I'm fully expecting this to be the new Grimace:

 

[jts]

Did McDonald's vouch to make at least one decision a day?

 

[Stereogatari]

McDonalds' are the mosques of the free world.
