kat11joe Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Silly question but i was curious about how the prices are at McDonalds in Europe, Japan and other countries you visited. Are they more expensive/cheaper than the US? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Good question! Actually except for France they seemed pretty much on par with SoCal even with the exchange rate. In France a Value Meal was like 7 euro though which was quite expensive. Also in Europe, what would be a large to us was a medium to them, so if you wanted more food you'd have to pay more. This was the same case in Japan. Smaller Portion sizes, and a little bit more money but not much. Elissa "I miss $0.29 Hamburger Tuesdays in Florida!"

benzo41190 Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Thats cool I always get a McChicken, Fries, Soda for like $3.17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CreativeForce Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 When we were in the UK last year, the prices looked about the same but with the exchange rate of the dollar to the pound, the actual prices were almost double! Outside of London it wasn't quite so bad, but the UK is defintly not cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
switch_79 Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 what about japan's rendition of the dollar menu? was it like a 100 yen menu? that would still be over a dollar here, but it's my best guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 ^ Yes. In fact they had "dollar stores" that were litterally called the "100 Yen" stores: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikrowave Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 ^ Yes. In fact they had "dollar stores" that were litterally called the "100 Yen" stores: I loved those stores so much, you could pretty much do your whole shopping there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nosferatu Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 You didn't go to McDonalds in Norway then. A Big Mac coasts about 6$. 10$ for a meal. Its cheaper, but not that much in Denmark and Sweden I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kat11joe Posted July 26, 2005 Author Share Posted July 26, 2005 Several of the McDonalds in my area used to have 29 cent hamburger wednesdays and 39 cent cheeseburger sundays. They don't anymore unfortunately Probably cause alot of people were ordering them 20 at a time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebl Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 Right now, in our area at least, they're doing $1 Chicken McNugget Tuesdays. Earlier this year, they did $1 Filet-O-Fish Fridays, but that didn't last very long. Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thunder001 Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 We have never had the One dollar menu here in Oz, but the meals start at just over $5 for a small meal, and up to $6 for a large meal. The burgers are around the $3 - $4 each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
