yeah, in a way I'm sorta glad for that

if they had a $7 combo, I'd eat there once a week and prolly weigh 25 pounds more. They do make a really tasty burger.
As it is, I go there about once per year now simply due to the cost. It's literally impossible to truly enjoy a $16 burger meal.

I have eaten at 5guys recently and even though it is on the high side, it is tasty
pro tip: get a grilled cheese and add a bunch of toppings for a cheap filling sandwich

Biggest savings of pandemic has been cooking meals

and not buying them at 237 Guys. It's like a freaking car payment a month. Eating better too. Weighing meh....would weigh less but for wife also cooking from home, meaning her bread, sand dabs, bark, crack brownies, cakes, yada yada.

We still get out plenty. Just eat out less.

I grew up eating out maybe once or twice a week. About what were doing now. Not every meal except one or two a week at home like we did for years. Eating out, even fast food, was not an everyday thing growing up. I've enjoyed cooking and eating better. Saved $5k or more.

Lol. And it was only for a special occasion like selling a house we fixed up or buying a new one. And we only went to Ryan’s or Ponderosa. Lutz

And eating out was anything not at home. Restaurants were maybe once a month. Mostly fast food. Quincys was the ####.

It's always been expensive

but be prepared to pay $30 for that same meal in 5-10 years. Some serious inflation is going to kick in.

Are you sure you got the little fries?

I tend to skip their fries in order to save a bit of money. I need to swear off fries all together. They are the worst part most burger meals.
