FOG BLOG RIDICULOG: McDONALD'S SECRET SUBTERFUGE!

AT THE END OF JULY , ABOUT A LITTLE OVER A WEEK LEFT! McDONALD'S WILL NO LONGER GIVE OUT BEVERAGE CUPS WITH CARDS AND STICKERS ON THEM. YOU WILL, IF YOU HAVE A SUPPLY OF THEM STILL BE ABLE TO CASH IN YOUR FILLED CARDS TILL THE END OF 2023. YOU WILL HAVE ROUGHLY A YEAR AND CHANGE TO DO THAT. THE SUBTERFUGE COMES IN TO IT STARTING AUGUST. RIGHT NOW YOU FILL IN YOUR CARD WITH 7 STICKERS FOR HOT BEVERAGES BOUGHT AND YOUR 8TH IS FREE! YOU EARN POINTS FOR HOT BEVERAGES BOUGHT BUT YOU DON'T HAVE TO USE THE POINTS ON YOUR APP FOR COFFEES AND OTHER HOT BEVERAGES BECAUSE YOU CAN USE THE LOYALTY CARDS FOR THAT IF YOU WANT. AFTER THE END OF THE MONTH, FOR EVERY HOT BEVERAGE YOU BUY YOU WILL EARN THE SAME POINTS AS NOW BUT YOUR ONLY OPTION FOR A FREE HOT BEVERAGE IS TO USE POINTS EARNED ON THE APP, SOUNDS LIKE A SECRET SUBTERFUGE TO ME. OTHER EXAMPLES OF THAT ARE.......RECENTLY THE PRICE FOR LARGE FRIES WENT UP FROM $3.99 TO $5.19, WELL OVER A DOLLAR INCREASE. BEFORE IT WAS BETTER TO BUY A LARGE AS IT WAS ONLY ABOUT 60 CENTS MORE. ANOTHER EXAMPLE AND I'M SURE OF IT IS THE MEDIUM FRY CARDBOARD CONTAINER IS SMALLER AND HOLDS LESS FRIES. THERE ARE OTHER PLACES USING THIS PLOY. NO NAME PEPPERONI AND SALAMI CHUBS AT NO FRILLS AND SUPERSTORES ARE SMALLER AND ARE BACK TO THE PRICE OF 2 YRS AGO......$3.99. I NOTICED RIGHT AWAY THAT THE CHUB WAS SMALLER. NOW IT'S McDONALD'S TURN TO JUMP ON THE SUBTERFUGE BANDWAGON!!
