4 for $4*

*per menu item

So, is it that number 4 is supposed to be $4 or that you order 4 number 4’s and only have to pay $4?

Haha sorry if the title is confusing. The meal is supposed to be those specific 4 items that you pay $4. Guess it would read more correctly as “4 for $4” but I was dumb and said for $5 since their pricing is deceptive. (Sorry if you’re just making a joke and it whooshed over my head 😅)

burgermeister,

It’s four for four fores for forever fours fore.

Threads, social media for people who wish it was mostly Wendy’s ads.

Yeah it’s definitely bloated with companies just trying to act witty or like they’re people. Mastodon is infinitely better in that respect. Ive just been dumb trying to get more outreach for the social stuff I’ve been trying to do 😣

Wendy’s in Japan is called “Fakkin”

That is all

Slinky5737,

Is Wendy’s still doing the sassy Twitter (now known as “X, formerly known as Twitter”) schtick?

kismattic,
@kismattic@lemmy.world avatar

Yes! But now they’re also on Threads, I would’ve put this on Mastodon if they existed there

ohlaph,

I believe it’s called Ten now. X was too edgy.

kismattic,
@kismattic@lemmy.world avatar

It’s Threads, not better than mastodon but still better than Twitter, or at least I hope?

ObviouslyNotBanana,
@ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world avatar

They mean twitter is called Ten, because X is 10.

…for context, Apple used to be very particular about pronouncing it “mack oh-as ten”. There is somewhat of a reason behind this, nobody will pronounce SuperBowl ⅩⅬⅧ as “eks-el-vee-triple-eye”.

It’s Macintosh Oh-Ass Ex and I will never change.

Maultasche,

I played enough fighting games to know it’s “Cross”.

ohlaph,

My bad.

If you hate yourself, open threads. It’s 90% Wendy’s ads.

if_only,

To be honest this lemmy post is also a Wendy’s ad.

kismattic,
@kismattic@lemmy.world avatar

Not my intention, I’m trying to make the point of not purchasing from them due to deceptive pricing but it is still essentially free marketing. Not sure how to bring it up without that being the case

ObviouslyNotBanana,
@ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world avatar

I think calling it an ad is a bit dishonest tbf. If you’re of the mindset that all marketing is good marketing, then companies suddenly cannot be criticised because it’s advertisement.

kameecoding,

yes I have seen a meme and now I have a need to go to the nearwst Wendy’s, gonna just walk there real quick however many thousand kms that is

xusontha,

not counting tax I’ll bet

kismattic,
@kismattic@lemmy.world avatar

$5.35 after taxes. I just want answers on why it’s wrong and Wendy’s will never answer me 🥲

In your county. Taxes here (Sacramento, California) are 8.75%

Not that we’d begrudge a few pennies from a Wendy’s purchase.

You don’t get to keep your 4 for $4 marketing when you raise it to $5. It smacks of capitalism desperation.

kismattic,
@kismattic@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah I’d be fine if it were just the tax, but literally marketing something one way and charging a 25% markup is just false advertising. Either change the name of the deal or change the price.

Am I petty for making such a fuss about $1, hell yeah, but is it annoying that “value” meals from every major fast food chain are going up while keeping the same name/title, absolutely
