CONSUMER BEWARE!!!angry

I went to a local fast food joint for breakfast this morning (I don't wanna name names, but the initials are BK) and ordered two sausage biscuits for $1.00 each...total amount, $2.14 tax included.

After further consideration, I asked to have a slice of cheese added to each.

After adding, the total was now $5.10!!!


WTF!!!angry

I asked what was going on, and the person waiting on me (a manager no less) informed me that according to company policy, when cheese is added to a sausage biscuit, it then officially becomes a sausage, egg and cheese biscuit, even though I don't get the egg with it. doh

So I told them to keep the cheese.

Have you ever been charged an outrageous price for something you weren't going to get?

... And people say obesity is rampant because fast food is cheap! More like people are too lazy to get to the grocery store, buy ingredients then wake up a little earlier to make themselves breakfast. It's definitely a rip-off. $5 should buy a loaf of bread, dz eggs & frozen sausage. You could even buy 2 of the frozen version of that prepared breakfast sandwich for the same price. Nuke it at home and save yourself the stress.

hi lamb oh my BK did it again. I love their hamburgers but hate that kind of stuff, why make you pay for something you did not
get. I found that our old BK depended on who was on that particular night, as some of the old timers there would not do that to you. if you wanted a slice of cheese, fine they did not
add anything to your bill, but come in the daytime when different people were on they once did the same thing to me. since I liked their hamburgers so much, I got wise. I only went in after dark when the night crew I knew were on. maybe it was only that my best friend and I are senior citizens but they did not do that add on extra money thing. eventually I think too many people got taken and that store closed. I did feel sorry for the guys working the night shift as they were all honest people who would never overcharge you.I just hoped they all got jobs elsewhere as here in Ca, southern part anyway jobs are more scarce than hen's teeth. I did not know a hen had teeth, lamb. he he he. sorry you got ripped off. odd that I had asked for the same thing and got ripped off the same way. hugs hatley.

Oh My, the things they do to suck you in and get money from you. So basically instead of giving you better deal say add another $1 to make it be $3.14 they threw the biscuits away. What a waste.

People have tried to scam me countless times already, most of the time it is just little things so I don't worry about it much. For example, after buying something I may find that they have charged me for something that I didn't buy, so I go and clear it up.
Of course, they claim that they have made a mistake, but we all know that they just wanted to tick us. . . glare

haha, that a scam! rofl

i would not pay 1.448 for a stupid peace of cheese, i would rather say: "you know i don't have that much" and just leave BK. find another place where they serve a good breakfeast for less than 5 bux, ETC, buy half a dozen of donuts, lol..

Now that is crazy. I wouldn't pay that much for a slice of cheese. I would have said no thank you and took my food home then put my cheese on it from home. But paying that much for cheese is way to much. Some places like that are very strange why they would do that to people.
