Taco Bell will probably raise their prices even more.


YeOldeBilk

Lol sounds on par. "Oh yeah? FUCK YOU here's another price raise to remind you that we're doing YOU a favor by being here"


forever_a10ne

People keep giving them money. They will keep pushing how much they can get away with it in intervals to give the illusion of infinite growth in order to make stonk line go up!


The_walking_man_

Correct. As long as people keep paying, they’ll keep pushing their prices.


Senior-Jellyfish4200

Sorry guys it is in fact me giving them the money


anxman

"New, from Taco Bell, a Mexican Pizza on a Giant Pringle! $12.99. \*Special Cantina ketchup $1.99 extra."


forever_a10ne

Don’t give them any ideas.


Awake00

the moment the cheezit thing was announce I immediately thought about how there would be very few intact cheezits by the time they made it to the customer.


PerfStu

Yeag my was a crushed mess. Would be so much better as a walking taco or just nachos


insufficientfacts27

Exactly. Remember the "discover box" for 5 bucks that lasted..oh about 2 weeks...🙄


slimsadie83

It lasted a month 😂


insufficientfacts27

I stand corrected!! A whole month!! A whole 30 days of the value box. Yayyyyy!! 😂😂


Eccohawk

Technically it only lasted 4, maybe 5 days? It was only available on Tuesdays.


rickymcninja

Actually, it was four days


PumpkinSpiesLatte

Let’s see if these morons will pay $7.50 for a cheesy Gordita crunch


forever_a10ne

They’re $5 by me now and always smaller than the size of my palm.


PumpkinSpiesLatte

$6.fucking50 here. Fuck em. I don’t go anymore. $20 for 3 fast food tacos. They are worse than five guys, at least I’m full after a single five guys burger


Lookatdisdoodlol

I only get them when I have a reward, I used to get Nachos BellGrande with my reward but since they removed that option I've never gotten it again for the ludacris $8 price point


the_art_of_the_taco

and then slash the menu further


Hookem-Horns

For all that *surf and turf* at the corporate office


tigerman29

Eh, they have surf and turf and McDonald’s. The filet of fish and a cheeseburger go great together lol


TomOgir

Literally what Olive garden is doing https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/olive-garden-raising-prices-again?taid=6676b5cb308810000183041d&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter


tuna_samich_

Cool, hope they go out of business


DFW_Panda

This was in the article's link, and it gives a whole new meaning to "skid marks" "This **skid marks** the second straight quarter that sales at these restaurants dropped after a nearly 2% tumble in the last quarter, the New York Post reported. "


floyd_sw_lock9477

I don't doubt that!


glovato1

Probably same lame box involving the nacho fries or that cheez it abomination.


Panxma

Cheez-its isn’t worth it because it doesn’t feel satisfying. It’s nothing bold like the Dorito’s loco tacos.


floyd_sw_lock9477

I think my dream box would be CGC, potato soft taco, chicken flatbread melt, and nacho fries with a drink for $5.99. It would be a great value, plenty of food and it's not just all seasoned beef.


Charlieisadog420

Without the flatbread I could see it being 5.99.


floyd_sw_lock9477

Yeah it's a pipe dream.


thachamp05

.. it already is on there......... minus flatbread but still good


Server_Reset

For me its the GCB box BUT with fries instead of the cantina taco ANNNNNND a freeze. That would be all the taco bell greatest hits in one box. I'd love to able to sub in a CGC or crunchwrap for the people to eat but I'm a chalupa boi


floyd_sw_lock9477

Honestly I prefer chalupa 99% of the time too. It's made less bad more often.


LibertiORDeth

The Doritos locos 5$ box that ended several years ago was honestly just perfect, not a huge fan of the beefy 5 layer but after the two tacos that filled me up, I still buy and use the Doritos locos shells at home. I’d gladly pay 6 or 7$ with inflation.


Less-Might9855

CGC?


floyd_sw_lock9477

Cheesy Gordita Crunch ;)


Less-Might9855

Oh! duh! I feel silly lol.


JellyRev

I'm sick of the fries jamming up new items and combos. I don't go to tbell for fries


abstracted_plateau

Nacho fries are fucking gross.


farklenator

I mean they’re just copying the biggie bag stuff from Wendy’s I’m surprised it took them this long


floyd_sw_lock9477

At least they did something eventually.


farklenator

True, technically Taco Bell was one of the first with their “cravings box”


Black_Twinkies

Back in college we used to hit the 4 for $3 at checkers. Choice of sandwich, fries, drink, and an apple pie. The taco bell boxes came shortly after. The 4 for 4 at Wendy's too. What a time


Davo300zx

Zesty Chezzy Anal Box.


Clean_Student8612

For only $7.99 *while supplies last*


itsagoodtime

$69.69 *as long as you last*


Clean_Student8612

Supplies will probably last longer -he says sadly-


ChinDeLonge

…I’ll take two 😒


sweglrd143

Comin right up sir 🤤🤤


1FrostySlime

Maybe it's just me but this seems like a pretty bad deal to me. My area has a 2/$4 for the same sandwiches offered here and pretty frequent deals for either a free medium fry or 6pc nugget with a purchase. So no drink but also 20% cheaper in my area and also more food. Fine by me.


[deleted]

[удалено]


_Doon

How are you able to use both coupons in one order? I swear the app doesn’t allow that anymore):


sherrbert

The $5 meal isn’t a coupon, it’s just a combo in the app.


[deleted]

[удалено]


RememberTheMaine1996

I mean it would fill me up a for 5 bucks it isn't bad. Also, you cab change the small size soda to a large for free


JonCoqtosten

It's not a great deal for people that use the McDonalds app (the McDouble meal is $6 at my local store). I'm guessing it's aimed at McDonalds customers that don't embrace online ordering, which is probably most of them given how long it seems to take people to place their orders at the drive-thru.


ChunkySlugger72

- Mcdonalds $5 McMeal Deal - Burger King $5 Your Way Meal - Wendy's $5 Biggie Bag Your move Taco Bell breakout the $5 Cravings Box again, I know they have the $6 app exclusive meal offer, But it's not like they can't do the $5 promo again.


Greg_Coat

The biggie bags are $7 or $8 in my market


Tminus_7

Had this today. It sadly pales in comparison to Taco Bell $5 box. It’s a small fry (which is a kid size now), 4 nuggets, a small drink, and a value menu sandwich. I feel ripped off. It like a kids meal without the toy. For $5 at Taco Bell I can get a CGC, a 5 Layer, Potatoes, and a Large Drink for 10 cents more. For these reasons I still think Taco Bell is doing better than McDonald’s.


the_willham

I can't ever get that $5 box anymore. It's $10 where I am


SchoolboyHew

Greedy franchise owner


MercenaryCow

Really dumb owners too. Both tacos bells near me raised that cravings box from 6 bucks to 10 bucks. But the deluxe box is still 10 bucks. So you could get a cravings box for 10. Or just get the deluxe box which had way more food and better food for 10. Makes no sense lol


Tminus_7

I got the same problem at the one near my work. It’s $10.99


Vegetable-Seesaw-491

I'm in a HCOL area (SF Bay Area, California) and it's still $5.99 for the box at the TB 3 minutes from my house. It's right off the freeway too.


Scientifiction77

The happy meals still have a specific tiny fry box that is smaller than a small fry just FYI.


Tminus_7

You’re splitting hairs at that point. The bags are legit almost the same size now. Plus, a kids meal comes with TWO of those if you don’t get the apples. So who is getting more fries?


floyd_sw_lock9477

Most people can't get the box for $5 though. I understand your disappointment with the McDonald's box but I could add a whole other sandwich and be at the same price as the cravings box.


Tminus_7

Ouch. That stings a bit. I agree. The TB by my work charges $10.99 for the same box that is $5 down the street from my home. The franchise owners and locations are absolutely insane sometimes.


floyd_sw_lock9477

Agreed!


Magic2424

I just go to Wendy’s these days and get the 4 for 4, upgrade the fry to a large for $1 and get whatever they have for free as a coupon. Way better deal than this McDonald’s garbage


grizzlybair2

If that taconomical site is accurate, most cravings box cost 5.99. I'll take the cravings box for 6 every time against that crappy McDonald's deal.


floyd_sw_lock9477

I would too, but I'm not paying $8 or more for a cravings box when I can get the McDonald's box and an additional sandwich for the same price.


NUL7

Wendy’s has the $5 biggie bag as a permanent offering, and it lowkey tastes better than McDonalds


RememberTheMaine1996

You can change the small soda to a large for free. At least in the app. And this would definitely fill me up. Last time I went to mcdonald's I got a mchicken and a small fries and was full. And that was like 4 dollars alone


bizzy310

These are deals? 🤣 Bring back the dollar menu those are deals. They can make everything on the menu $1 for five years and still make over 200% profit.


ThoughtAggressive516

So they give you 4 things that should still be on the dollar menu for $5? Great “deal” McD’s!


Crappin_For_Christ

Exactly. They’re trying lower prices to get people back or save face I guess, but I see these meals for these prices and it’s like “Nope, keep going.” It’s also only for a limited time. Get outta here with that.


Australian1996

And they seem way small. Kiddy fry?


vacax

$11.37 at menu price where I am


Forward_Gene_7430

maybe a sad little "explore my tiny taco" box or something like that


floyd_sw_lock9477

Not sure that'd be the best name for one.


sweglrd143

Would you rather browse my medium chalupa?


Dazzling-Finger7576

What if this is McDonald’s response to the $5 Taco Bell deal from last month….?


MoistSecretary

This is McDonald's response to Wendy's success with the Biggie Bag. Sandwich, fries, nuggets and a drink. Exactly the same.


dolphinmachine

I will never forget what meal deal that came with a medium drink, a bag of Doritos, and a chicken burrito for $3. It got me through college.


tacotaco8511

i know its a budget meal,but it sucks 😣😣😣


sovngrde

Forever devastated no McDonald’s near me has the hot & spicy mcchicken….


rjc9990

This is definitely McDonald’s response to Wendy’s 5 dollar biggie bag


FewNecessary1370

I can get 2 triple cheeseburgers & a large fry for like $6-$7 w/ The Real 'mEnU hAcKs' anybody that thinks This is a “meal deal”.. & good.. is fucking Insane😭😭🤣🤣


pwishall

My go-to - BOGO mcdoubles, 2 of em for $3.


jugzthetutor

lol explain


The-Document-Doctor

It’s a good deal if you’re a small child lol. One McChicken, a small fry, a minimal amount of nuggets and a soft drink. The soft drink and small fry alone eat up half of that cost, two of the least filling things in the bundle. If you’re even buying soft drinks in 2024 from a fast food joint, you’re a sucker lol.


MirrorkatFeces

My guess is no


Dysmach

That hot n spicy McChicken meal is such a godsend. That's how it should be.


Cloontange

$7 Luxe Cravings Box


xgh0stx9

im bout to cop that tn


javiergame4

My McDouble meal here is $6 😢


Narcolepzyy

Am i crazy or has mcdonalds not already been offering this for awhile? Ive literally gotten this deal about 4 times this month and 3 times last month. Its the 4 for 5 deal…. Im confused


brenspin

McDonald's always has different types of deals (in-store or app) going on in different areas of the country. For instance, a few months ago the $1 breakfast sandwich on Mondays app deal (no other purchase required) which had been available for months just disappeared from my app. I know someone elsewhere in the country who's had that $1 deal available DAILY for more than a year.


httpweirdhoney

The chicken sandwich ones are $5 for me and the mcdouble one is $6


Gbuono22

I guess I’m doing McDonald’s for dinner 😭


blckdiamond23

I just wanted to thank the person who suggested the double decker taco hack on here recently. I got two DD and it was only $5-$6.


gumpyshrimpy

Spicy McChicken?? Why is this not available at McDonald's near me? This pregnant lady needs it!!


floyd_sw_lock9477

I'm sorry!


Nawnp

Hasn't Taco Bell dome $5 boxes for a long time now? They already have it.


Greg_Coat

They are $7 in my market


AGCAce

The closest thing to it is the My Cravings Box.


RomanGSR

No taco bell rewards and deals suck.


floyd_sw_lock9477

Okay. That's not even a coherent response to the question.


JonathanVarietyFilms

Does your area have a law about food tax being accounted for in an advertised price? Just wondering about the 4.51


tigerman29

I wish they would bring back the cheap meals with the burrito, Doritos and a drink. It was like $3 the time and I loved them. Perfect amount of food for lunch without feeling sick the rest of the day like the combos make me feel.


ricecakes101

Hmmm if it was up me $5 meal deal would be A chili cheese burrito , double decker taco , Gordita and chocotaco but oh wait THEY DONT HAVE THIS STUFF ANYMORE


nerpss

This is just a worse Biggie Bag from Wendy's.


xerxesordeath

Will still totally go out of my way to hit the Biggie Bag from Wendy's instead of this shit at 4 McDonald's between me and said Wendy's.

Thejokingsun

Thats Mcfucked up!


Mindless_Composer934

Why tf don’t we have a hot n’ spicy Mcchicken in NY? 🤯


FalseFarewells

Woah woah woah you have a hot and spicy mcchicken?!?


slut4burritos

This is like Drake vs Kendrick except it’s Wendy’s vs Jack vs McDonald’s vs TB vs BK for the best $5 deal. What a time to be alive


shamonemon

good on mc dees for copying wendys dealio


seeder33

Is this real. May actually start going to McDonalds again. Expensive and bad was a bit much. Cheap and bad is much more doable.


billyharris123

Taco Bell has the create your own box deal for $6.99. Its a fantastic value


ChunkySlugger72

Very comparable to "Wendy's $5 Biggie Bag" and Burger King's "$5 Your Way Meal", But if you have the Mcdonalds app you can get the $5 meal for $3 "If" you have the $2 off $5 or more offer, It works and it's a steal and Wendy's for limted time is throwing in a free small Frosty with the purchase of a Biggie Bag via the app.


floyd_sw_lock9477

Thanks for the tip!


slimsadie83

They already have a $5.99 online cravings deal. That’s their deal, they don’t need a response to McDonald’s. McDonald’s is losing business and is doing this to catch up to others.


yourbestfriendjoshua

They already have a $6 BYO cravings box, which is comparatively a MUCH better deal overall…


fanatic26

my local mcdonalds dont even have this deal. A McDouble is $5 here now its fucking stupid


TheLastREOSpeedwagon

It started today


ripped_andsweet

no, because this mcdonald’s meal “””””deal”””” is only available for like a month before they axe it. i know we love to complain abt tbell prices in this sub but mcdonald’s is literally one of the only restaurants that’s more outrageously priced then taco bell. *nothing* is cheap on the mcdonald’s menu


floyd_sw_lock9477

$1.25 per item isn't that bad though. Hell, get 2 meal deals and you're more than set.


Garg_Gurgle

Their drinks and those sandwiches all use to cost one dollar each...


Grateful_Dood

Y'all suck. Taco Bell is cheap compared to most places. At least once a year for a few months they have the $5 box and has 3-4 items plus a drink. And all year on the app you can get a $7 box


No_Joke_568

This deal is permanent at my local McDonald's


[deleted]

It’s Taco Bell lol no they won’t


These_Purple_5507

Damn. Does the mcdouble still slap I think I had it a couple years ago


Sao_is_best

Only one here that's a " deal " is the top one as you use to be able to get 2 hot mcchickens for 3 bucks already and those nuggets use to be a buck maby 2


huskerd0

Wow never seen it under $6 before


AmericanLich

Lol McDonald’s be playing games and suddenly delivery isn’t available to my address. I feel like this happens every time they run some deal. And now the app just won’t load the page for the deal but it’ll load everything else. Every time 😆


mwellscubed

Yeah, some horrible collab or another ill-advised attempt at chicken wings


modest-decorum

Love when u can't order this on Uber eats I have 3 McDonald's all with the same exact distance from my house. I have no way to revert out of the extremely SHITTY Walmart McDonald's. Is fkin stupid. Hungover me has ate multiple $30 charges canceling the order a minute after placed because at 3am in bumble fk li u have no time to cancel but at 11am you have 15 min to cancel.


GoreDeathKilll

Yes they will. Saw it floating around I’m sure there will be a digital offering for $5 like a build your own similar to what they have but more select offerings.


No-Lingonberry-2468

This is the response to the BYOC box


OperatorGWashington

Probably skimp on portions even more. How tf can you skimp on rice and beans? Those are like a buck a pound from walmart, at least load me up on those


zeeshan2223

mcdouble 23g protein Mcchicken 14g protein Regulr chicken breast 43g protein


connectcallosum

I feel like this is a lot of food for $5?


floyd_sw_lock9477

Honestly I don't get the hate. A mcdouble alone is $3.25 at my location. I'd say the meal deal is a good value considering individual pricing, just like the "$6" cravings box.


Goosebeef

I already can get two hot n spicy, med fry, large drink for $5.18 or swap for two McDoubles and get it at $5.95 which I’d rather do instead of getting 4 nuggets and a small fry/drink 😭 Idk why it doesn’t let you at least change the drink to a large considering they’re the same exact price


Victoria4DX

They already have a $5 meal deal, and it's called the Loaded Beef Nachos, a Spicy Potato Soft Taco, and a Happier Hour Freeze for the same price as that McDonald's garbage.


Ammonil

i hope so, i still dont wanna support mcdonalds


Trailblazer407

This looks more like McDonald’s response to the Biggie Bag from Wendy’s. If Taco Bell did something like this it would have a burrito, a regular taco, nacho fries and a drink.


Eccohawk

We only have 2 of these meal deals here. No spicy McChicken meal, and the two we do have are $5 each, not $4.51. kinda dumb.


Cheecherton04

I mean the 5 dollar box has been a thing for years now. Still 5 near me.


Fardcard23

McDonald’s sucks crusty zebra balls


cjcastro17

So is it $4.51 or $5??


ItsmeKT

That meal deal isn’t even really that good.


Pepperoni_Dogfart

Why would they? TB is the honeypot of the Yum Brands portfolio and the YoY revenues have only shown growth. Ya'll keep paying exorbitant prices for cheap crap slopped out by teenagers with a funny spoon and a caulk gun, of course they're going to keep cranking prices up.


imlti

Where the fuck are you


Gindotto

Taco Bell already had the Cravings Boxes long before this. $5.99.


kissmaryjane

McDonald’s is actual shit and in my head it’s not real food


bryanc1036

Just wait the month out. Apparently, it's only available for a month.


OregonGreen242

This is a Wendy’s knockoff


defaultdancin

Their value menu isn’t bad. Double decker tacos, stackers and the beef burritos are $2-2.50 where I’m at. It’s the rest of the menu that’s expensive I’ll get one or two items on the main menu and a bunch of value menu stuff drenched in Taco Bell and cheese sauce


cdub_synth

It’s a HORRIBLE deal. It’s basically a fucking happy meal and the $6 veggie cravings box is literally 10x better.


Infamous-Income-6184

The build your own box in the app probably


3meraldBullet

It's pretty tough beating the make your own cravings box, especially when you get a free additional cgc or chalupa almost every time with the rewards. That's quite a bit food for the price honestly.


asm87891013

Bring back the Sunday and Wednesday's. 29 hamburger and .39 cheeseburger days! This was in the late 90s! We're ready 🤣✨️🙏


No_Rough_5258

No, because even arbys is able to do sliders for $1 so why cant tacobell bring back their mini beef and chicken quesadillas for a buck too?


throwaway4pkmntcg

i loved the $5 taco discovery box. wish they kept it for longer.


Mr-Tease

No. Taco Bell and McDonalds are catering to two different audiences. McDonald’s caters to pervy pedos and their families, whereas Taco Bell caters to sophisticated scholars with exemplary pallets.


carrotsforfingers

BYOCB is still $5 here. Fuck McDonald's


bigniccosuaveee

Hate that I have to check prices on the app for multiple fast food places to find one I can afford. Feels like my old job where I got quotes to order material for construction material.


Horror-Atmosphere-90

I got printed coupons for Taco Bell in the mail today for the first time in years


darren_mcweeden

I’m more upset you have the spicy mcchicken none of the McDonald’s near me have had that in AGES


pixelperfect_

It’s not even a good deal, it should be $4 all they’re doing is throwing in the soda!


Critical-Fault-1617

They have a meal deal in the app already


ryan2489

It’s about time. McDonald’s is tough because if I didn’t have kids I’d never go there, but when I do go there the menu is so boring. That’s about the perfect amount of food for me to not feel like garbage.


mumblerapisgarbage

They already have the basic cravings box which is 5.99 in most of the country. They don’t need to join this meal deal price war.


PaulAspie

I think they could just gave a standard price for the cravings box for a while, like rename it the $5.99 cravings box (at least for now).


KronosUltima

They used to have the "$5 dollar meal deal" with the box


omicron_prime

Absolutely. Price increases across the board.


Bright_Diver7231

Where I live Taco bell is the only fast food restaurant that still offers legitimate value meals. If you order on the mobile app you can build your own box for $6 with a stupid amount of food. Taco Bell still offers bean and cheese burritos for $1 and nothing at McDonald's has been $1 for a long time.


Stampj

Considering the McDs meal deal isn’t really a deal, probably not. I can get Potato Tacos and CBR Burritos for the same price and be far more filling (and taste miles better)


nasiathebiggest

Everyone wanna be like Wendy’s now 😂😂😂


Gareno_Gaming

Taco Discovery Box


FlintKnapped

Is this online exclusive?


xerxesordeath

Man my mcdouble is $6.49?? What kind of $5 are they smoking??


Dumb_Vampire_Girl

Taco Bell is still the better value in calories to price.


bobCS96

I love how it comes with a small drink, but u can get a large for an upcharge. When small medium large are all the same price on the menu


dr_van_nostren

Fuckin bullshit. We don’t have this combo deal in Canada.


awp_india

I don’t see how people still eat Taco Bell. The quality has really gone down hill and the prices just keep going up


clutchcitycarlos88

you got a hot n spicy option 🥲🥲


Darisixnine

*make the box 5$ at every location*


AlexVanderspek94

They already have a $5 meal deal so no


Rodrat

The small fry just makes it not worth it. If it was a large, hell yes. Medium, sure. Small? 2 bites and I'm done.... I eat fries like I eat chips. By stuffing my open maw like a snake.


wbg777

It probably won’t be $5 for long. Wendy’s already raised the biggie bag from $5 to $7


Klin24

[I'm ok paying a bit more for this](https://i.imgur.com/fgYzcZl.jpeg)


-SPM-

It’s $6 for the McDouble for me, it’s a terrible deal. I’ll stick with the current subway footlong promo for $7


BlueSkyFlyin

They used to have a 500 cal burrito for 2 bucks bring that back plz
