Crazy.
Last week I went out of town with my gf to her aunts house and we've gone out that way before and on our way home we stopped at a Dairy Queen and we got 2 peanut buster parfaits. We normally never eat junk food but there's no DQ near our house and we've stopped there before, but not since at least last year. We paid 12 bucks for 2 PB parfaits and were like wtf because the last time we got them we easily paid less than 10 bucks, probably 9. Inflation is a-comin'.

>>23765825
the fuck? I pay the equivalent of 15$ for chinese take-out in a capital city in one of the richest countries in the european union.

Your gmi anon

>>23765825
How many families are you feeding with that order?

They fried your takeout in gutter oil.

>>23766466

>>Online ordering
>>Paying by CC

You should've went out of your way and bought it at the store. Most Chinese Takeouts offer a cash discount instead of Debit/CC. You could've bought 2 mega pizzas with wings, drinks and dipping sauce with that money you lizard-brain fattie.

>>23765825
> $50-$60
wtf
I live in Denmark which is supposed to be more expensive than the US. Chinese takeout would usually cost like $20 here. Maybe $30-$35 if you order a ton of food.

>>23766432
I don’t get it, ps5s are only $500, are niggers really that poor?

>>23765825

America is third world tier if you're in the bottom 20%. Which a lot of blacks are.

>>23765825
Never seems like there's any anons in Washington DC with all the niggers around

>>23765825
>this shit shouldn’t have cost more than $5
exactly

ENJOY IT NOW BECAUSE SOON YOU WILL EAT THE BUGS

protip: Any asian place that is completely Americanized with their minimalist branding and english is a chink scam.
I bet these guys have a decent website too which they probably justified with even more ridiculous prices

>>23766466
Fuck off for tipping that amount when you bought for so much

>>23765825
Gotta pay everyone $15 minimum wage buddy. Inflation has been happening quite obviously. Open your eyes my guy

>>23766721
Yeah but euro taste is terrible, you’re probably munching on guttergrease pigeon

>>23767219
Wtf, I'm apparently in the top 25% and honestly don't really feel that comfortable or like I've "made it". Is it really that bad?

>>23767500
nice cope, enjoy ur 80$ food

>>23766466
All menu prices on doordash got marked up.

Its because you ordered this from a fucking hipster "chinese" place. idiot. Order from a hole in the wall, not a hipster place you fucking DC rat

>>23767125
>>23767904
I can't even imagine living in that soulless place we call a capital.

>>23767513
Even just being a Mcdonald's wagie here in Denmark could easily put you in the top 50% in the US. Mcdonald's wagies make $22/ hour + pension + 5 weeks of paid vacation + paid sick leave here. And they get "free" education, healthcare etc.
The US is top tier if you make $150k/ year but the level of inequality is insane..

>>23767904
This, the smaller and dirtier the place is, and the worse the staff treats you, the better the chinese food. I thought this was common knowledge? Ya, if you want to impress a bitch you take her to pf changs or one of those trendy places where they flambe everything and cook in front of you, but if you want actually good food you go to the place called "Best Wok" or something similar with an attached laundromat where the owner sits in the back drinking and smoking all day

>>23767862
Sometimes I tip $1.25, I even once tipped $0.50 to a black guy and he said “thanks for the 50 cents” and I said “you’re welcome” and walked away

>>23767513
Even just being a Mcdonald's wagie here in Denmark could put you in the top 50% in the US. Mcdonald's wagies make like $20/ hour + pension + 5 weeks of fully paid vacation + paid sick leave here. And they get "free" education, healthcare etc.
The US is a very wealthy country but the top 1-5% own most of the wealth. If you subtract those people then it isn't a wealthy country. The US is top tier if you make $150k+/ year but the level of inequality is insane..

>>23765825
>$80
Now I understand the american wages being so high in comparison, wtf

>>23765903
well DC is where the money they print goes first

>>23766466
>Door dash/Grubhub/post mates
Found your problem, ordering on those apps does a x3 on the original meal price.

>>23765825
Fucking hell anon. Just buy bulk beans and rice and eat for 6 months for that money

Hope you live in master race northern virginia and not shithole DC

i went to a drivethru that would normally have 2 chicken sandwiches for 5 dollars and now one is worth 4.50
idk if it's "true" inflation since it's due to supply line issues/constrictions, but it's sure as shit happening

>>23768006

>>23769302
mcchickens used to be fucking $1 at mcdonalds, now they're like $2.50

>>23765825
Please tell me you ordered for 4 people at least

>>23768562
Underrated

>>23765825
I use to go to the Chinese buffet, it wasn’t the best food buy you could eat as much as you wanted for $15. Now buffets are shutdown and I am sad. Fuck this fucking hoax pandemic.

>>23766466
Nigga ubereats is a cardinal sin
I paid $45 for two small 3inch slabs of bbq. Markup is fucked. Now a nigga is cookin pad thai & braised tofu thanks to youtube

>>23769400
but i wonder if that's "real" inflation in the economic sense
like if the money supply goes from 100 to 200, that'd cause massive inflation, due to monetary policy
if the coof gets sorted then prices might go back down again for mcchickens but when a currency is inflated it stays inflated

>>23765825
food prices are up by a massive amount from 1 year ago. even the kikes at the BLS can't lie about it with a straight face. https://www.bls.gov/regions/mid-atlantic/data/averageretailfoodandenergyprices_usandmidwest_table.htm

>>23765825
you got ripped off bro. thers a chink place near my house that has dinner for $13.00 and its so much food you will have leftovers. YOU GOT CHINKED

>>23766466
It now costs over 6 dollars for a latte in my neighborhood. 7 bucks after tip.

>>23765852
Maybe Chinese takeout is what OP really wanted and makes him happy. Stop being an insufferable, insecure foodie faggot.

uck with 80 bucks id buy some bone in ribeyes a decent bottle of cabernet a few potatos and a cuban cigar
then id still have $30 dollars in my pocket
and instead you waste your dollars at an establishment named "orange chicken snob" where i can almost guarantee a fucking tranny was working the line

>>23765825
just used $30 off uber eats certificate
/w 5% off offer
+ buy one get one free
Just got 4 entrees for 20 bucks. gotta look for them deals.

>>23766943
I'm in the midwest and you could get a ton of food for under $15.

DC is already super expensive and he went to some hipster place and bought a shitload of food

>>23765825
It should be 20 bucks top, what are you eating? I thought life was cheap in America. Or has hyperinflation just started?

>>23767438
Yeah with what he paid he should have kept the tip for himself

>>23769400
They're 4 euros in France and used to be 2

>>23770435
>>23769400
McChickens are still $1 here. They raised the price of the triple cheeseburger (removed it from $2 value menu) and also increased the price of the double qpc though

>>23770435
Wait, you're paying 5 USD for an oversized chicken nugget on a bun?

>>23765825
What I don't understand is how you got to the end of your order saw it was $80 but ordered it anyway? ngmi

>>23766466
>tip $1.50

>>23765825
my normal $13~ order came out to fucking 18 dollars the other day

its fucking happening bros
