Customers Call For McDonald’s Boycott As Menu Prices Continue To Rise: ‘We Can’t Let Them Keep Raising The Price’

This made customers furious, with one Reddit user writing, "What's the point of a wage increase if you increase everything else too?"

"What's the point in raising minimum wage just to raise the cost of living?" a second customer agreed. Which leads us to the boycott.

Reddit User Calls For A McDonald's Boycott

User @WeBeatPokemon started a thread on Reddit that's garnering some attention: "Everyone needs to boycott McDonald's after price hike," they wrote. "$3.59 for a McChicken sandwich is criminal. Up in Malta it is $1.89. We all need to come together and boycott... It's a slap in the face to the community. Do they think they're fine dining? We can't let them keep raising the price. 3 years ago, a McChicken was $1.00. I'm sorry but people's wages haven't gone up 300%."

And many other users agreed: "It's to the point where you might as well get a burger at the next tier up," one person wrote. "Last time I went Chili's had burgers and other stuff from $10-$20 and is way better. 5 Guys is a bit pricey but if you're paying $15 at McDonald's might as well get that instead."

"Got a large fry (barely filled past halfway), a large shake and a double cheeseburger the other day. I was baffled at the $17 price tag for three things," a third user replied. "Fries for $5.39 I was like uhhh okay not doing that again. Just been stopping at BK more instead—it's always much cheaper."

"It’s just something that no longer seems worth it at some price and you stop going and instead go to a competitor," a fourth agreed.

"Last time I went was the last time ever!" said another.

"Down with ‘em (finally)!" a final customer commented.
