(...) There's a McDonald's around here where several items (about 1/2 of those we ever get) ring up at least 5% higher than the (consistent inside and drive-through) menus show. I first discovered this when figuring that a $2 milkshake could not (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)
