Any one here going out of your way for free coffee?
James
because I would only save pennies after cost of gas to get to McD's.
BTW how much is a happy meal? They got a special 2 days a week for
$1.39. Don't have kids so don't know the regular price.

Do you have to be a child to buy a happy meal, or can an adult buy one for
himself?

Anyone can buy a happy meal. You can be a full-grown adult and order a
happy meal and eat it in the store. McD's doesn't care. A sale is a sale.
If you want to buy a happy meal, they will gladly sell one to you. Every
once in a while my wife will buy a happy meal at McD's as a quick snack. We
have a young son who loves happy meals. But she buys them for herself. Not
my thing, I try to avoid McD.s -Dave

I never feel properly McD'd unless I've had two Big Macs and a large fries.
A happy meal would be a coffee break snack for me. But, then, that's why I'm
5'6" and 203 lbs. :-(

I've got a friend who's a diabetic, and buys the happy mean because
that's about the right portion size. He saves the toys and passes
them on to me to give to my nieces and nephews.

I'm surprised to hear a diabetic eating at McDs. But that is a good point,
the happy meal portion size is about right for a full-grown adult for a
meal. -Dave

I've bought a number of them for me, but often times the dollar menu is
a better price, unless you really want that toy.

Except that between the bun, the drink, the fries, and the dessert, a Happy
Meal contains about 5 times the amount of carbs an adult should eat in one
day.
As for the coffee, I wouldn't ever drink Mickey D's coffee. Yuck. How they
manage to burn it is beyond me. Drunkin' Dognuts coffee sucks, too. I make
my coffee at home, exactly the way I like it. It's not free, but since the
nearest McD's is 5 miles away, it's still cheaper than the "free" coffee
that would cost me 10 miles of gasoline ($.68). That's factored at
$2.05/gallon and 30/mpg.

A burger, $1 fries & $1 drink goes for $2.84 plus tax here. A better
deal is the Mcdouble, fries & drink for $3 + tax.
Can't afford the happy meal :(
