Double Cheeseburger Dilema

WTF McDonalds just changed the name of their double cheeseburger without telling me.

This only causes confusion with money. I have been buying the double cheeseburger for months for a dollar, then go into today with my kids, and order three, only to get charged another 60 cents for three of them.

Normally this would not be such a big deal, but I was down to my last 4 dollars in my bank account.

So I start arguing with the guy saying I'm looking right at your dollar menu and it still says a dollar, he was new and couldn't figure it out himself why the menu had it listed for 1 dollar and 1.19.

This went on for 10 minutes, as the people beside me also were overcharged expecting the double cheeseburger to be one dollar. So what normally would have taken me 3-5 minutes, took us 10-15 to argue over prices.

So he removed the 1.19 ones he entered, and gave me the dollar menu ones. I looked at the sandwich and did not even notice the difference.

20 cents for a piece of soy bean oil based fake cheese eh.

This was a dumb move by McDonalds, just charge extra if they want extra cheese to avoid confusion at the check out line when people are in a hurry.

Make people aware that the menu has changed or just keep things simple- you should have just removed the one slice of cheese, and put a notice on the menu that extra cheese cost extra, not two prices for basically the same sandwich. Very inconvenient.
