    I can beat that. I currently do a regular hot dog, chips and drink for $5. I can throw in cookies. But this is the best I can do. Anything to make corporate fast food joints look worse.

    They're actually cheaper. For that box of 60 is only about $15. For a box of 30 chips is $19. Worse case scenario is I lose a $15 bet with myself. But if I do as "meal deal" I think it might increase sales. I don't currently have a posted "meal deal" but I'll try it. I've spent more than $15 on an idea before.

    Chips cost me $0.62 ea
    Cookies will cost me $0.24 ea
    Sold separately would be $1 and $0.50 respectively. Drinks are also $1. So a $3 hot dog sold as part of a 4 item meal will be $5. I'm already charging $5 for a 3 item meal.

    IMG_0128.jpg IMG_0129.jpg Wife and I and the dog went to the local drive in for dinner. Across the street from the drive in is a Ford Dealer. We sat and enjoyed our dinner and looked at a really cool Bronco on the lot. Did a drive through the lot and checked out the Bronco. Bronco Raptor beautiful rig, $92,000.00 plus tax :eek: Matching pickup $80,000.00

    A little of this and a little of that.
    Good evening

    Thunderstorms in my area now. We can use the rain.


    Whew, nothing close to me. Trying to get less stuff, not more. After moving the M-I-L last year I decided that less is better. Unless we’re talking shotguns…:D

    Dammit Bill. Get some rest and take care.

    Go for the Brat. :thumbsup:

    The running joke with a couple of us guys at work is that if any of us win the MegaMillions or Powerball lottery there’ll be a new Raptor in each of our driveways. But damn, 92 large is F-U money.
