    I have seen it happen off and on for the past 2 or 3 years so I don't think it has anything to do with the current economic situation. Restaurants are always trying to squeeze a little more profit out of the bottom line. It is annoying though.

    Its also a sign of the economy takin a nose dive.

    I'm more peeved that they purposely won't add napkins to your offer unless requested
    Then locally the economy must have been in the crapper for a couple of decades.

    As for the napkins, I wish they'd let up on it here. If you hit the drive thru you have to dig through half a bag of napkins to find out if they remembered to give you your food.

    What's next napkins and salt?

    If you don't ask for these at the register or drive thru. You will not get them put in bag as it is.
    Never been to Europe and/or Asia, huh?

    If you go to mcdonalds in european countries you have to pay extra for almost everything!
    Last year in Amsterdam, I had to pay, like, $1 for bbq sauce and 90 cents for ketchup. And after I finished my big mac etc, I had to pay $1.50 to take a leak!

    BTW: In Indonesia I also had to pay for the napkins (5 cents for 2).
    F**K.

    Now I know we have been restored to true world leadership.

    Napkins @ McD = free.

    Sauce @ McD = free.

    UK leads the world!!!!!!!!

    PS Food @ McD = s**t.

    McDonalds will only give

    4 piece chicken tenders 1 free
    6 piece 2 free
    10 piece 3 free
    20 piece 4 free

    Anything additional sauces, including ketchups, etc will be a 20cent charge per packet

    This is going on in Milwaukee.

    Should we expect other fast food chains/restaurants to follow this practice soon?
    If you think thats bad, they have a few locations where the person taking your order is actually outsourced to india.

    I'm not kidding, at some mcdonalds drive thrus, when you place your order you're talking to someone in india who then puts it into the machine via the internet- that order is then showed to someone inside via a monitor- that person is the one who puts it in a bag, and hands it to whoever is at the drive thru cash register (except in cases where 1 person does both).


    And maybe its easier to withdraw from life
    With all of its misery and wretched lies
    If we're dead when tomorrow's gone
    The Big Machine will just move on
    Still we cling afraid we'll fall
    Clinging like the memory which haunts us all
