Wendy's to add surge pricing to menu items.

That's true. Although, these days, the lunch menu pricing is more like what you would expect from the dinner menu.

Yes, gone is the $5 lunch special.

I heard they're going to have a Orange Dreamsicle Frosty to start spring.

I'm in!

I think I've been to Wendy's three times in my life, mainly for their loaded baked potato. Given that I've been eating low carb since 2017, it isn't happening again. Fast food is nearly impossible with a low carb diet.

Regarding surge pricing: If we eat out or do takeout, we get it at around 5 PM, because it means we're busy in the evening. One of the benefits of being retired is you are not stuck on the strict meal schedule to which your culture adheres. Breakfast at 10-11, dinner at 5. Tiny meal/snack in between.

Restaurants have been doing surge pricing for years. It's called the dinner menu.

When I've been on low carb, I buy Wendys Triple burger - sammich only! I give DW the bun and the extra tomato I order - and she makes a tomato sammich while I eat the burgers with a knife and fork like a steak. Yum!

Yes, gone is the $5 lunch special.

It will return - - - next downturn in the economy. (You heard it here first.)
