KFC prices have fallen a lot since then
Closets at my local KFC in the uk is a 6 peice with 4 regular sides that is £20 or $28 and I bet it tastes worse
It doesn’t expire until 03/26/2095… or maybe 2195 or 2295. I’d say use it.
my grandma’s desk had old postcards stuck inside too
The business minded part of me thinks that the meal deal made it more profitable for the restaurant. $4.50 for four biscuits and like a coleslaw and instant mashed potatoes? Mark up city right there.
is 8 pieces of chicken considered a snack in the US? as its obviously not a meal according to KFC
Only 31 years too late
You can get this cheaper (inflation adjusted) nowadays if your KFC runs a promo on Tuesdays that halves the price of the 8 piece bucket.
It’s actually not too bad today. $20 for 8 pc with a large side and 4 biscuits.
So KFC was always expensive. Got it.
I bet it still works. If someone showed up to my restaurant with a 31 year old coupon, I’d make the exception. We got comp tabs in full service restaurants. I’m sure fast food has something similar.
Holy hell!!
I went to Taco Bell recently. Two tacos, 1 burrito, and a drink was damned near $20! The drink was $4!! I remember when Taco Bell was the budget choice.
My kid needed a paper bucket for a play once. So I was like… Where the heck am I going to get that? I go to KFC if course. But they just would not sell me a paper bucket.
So finally, I go, “Alright, then give me two buckets of chicken, and on the second one… hold the chicken.”
The manager was called over, and I did walk out with a clean bucket. And they let me get it for cheaper than normal after that stunt.
Back when the world was a nicer place filled with hope
Ahhhh yes, the good ol days
“Hey Tommy, what you riding over there?”
“Roll top desk!”
That exact meal at my local KFC was $20 after a coupon yesterday, or almost $30 regular price
Is that coupon laminated?
Amazing the stuff you can find when cleaning. We found some old coins my grandad had saved, the oldest one was a French coin from 1862.
As a child of the 70’s I truly feel old nowadays as menu prices are insane from when I grew up. Heck, the tip is more than the whole meal used to cost sometimes. I get time value of money and prices will always go up but we just rarely eat out anymore as it’s not worth it.
Nowadays one chkn sammy is $11 after tax
Is it laminated?
I always remember 10 piece for $10 in the early 2000s; and after they went up, I discovered the far superior deli chicken in local grocery stores, and I never went back!
