England getting to the final with a penalty ruling in their favour. Winning a penalty shoot-out before that - all while playing pretty terrible besides their last game.

The Meal Deal (it's very important to us Brits and people are highly judged by their choice) going from £3.50 to £3.75.

Labour getting into power again after like 14 years of the tories (and by a landside).

Trump getting shot in the ear.

And me burning through over 1000 ultra balls on the first day of Go-fest.

What a time.

That sounds like a damn good lunch and price to me. Wish we had meal deals like that, tho some markets do have similar boxes. Sadly the prices are kinda high on those, at least vs the quality of food.

I don't really do much fast food, but from what I hear, the prices have gone crazy. Like just shy of $20 per person for a combo (no coupons, apps, deals). Tbf that is absolutely wild to me at least. Cooking is much cheaper, as are most restaurants at that point*

*Except here in CA where our restaurant prices are going up in some instances, due to labor costing more, and no hidden fees. Still some way cheap places to eat that are 1000% better than fast food trash. Sandwiches have also gone insane everywhere here as well. What used to be $5-10 for an amazing sammich (nearly anywhere), it's now $12-20. No clue what's up with that (I don't do subway or chains, can't comment on their sammiches).

I mean, was fast food ever an economical decision? It was always a time saver. Sure the prices are worse now, but I just heard this sentiment come from like 5 separate places this week about 5 separate food places. Did they all up their prices at once? lol

It was semi efficient when I was in my 20s and you could feed yourself for like $3 because dollar menus existed. Otherwise, no. Never a good option. As for the current outrage at prices (it has gone up the past two weeks ime as well), no clue what recently changed.
