I cannot imagine what one would be eating when a whole meal, including meat, can be had for only $5. There is a real reason it is that cheap. :-)

Home-made is not only more value for your money, but you can make it healthier too. Home rules!

I know families of friends who cook for each other once a week and swap frozen dinners.

My favorite meal is a soup and a salad. It usually cost about $1 total if I make both a soup and a salad from scratch at home.

And as a side note. My job is an event entertainer allows me to get a free meal at events. Not always, but it does happen.

Consumer spending is going down and those places know that when spending goes down, so will their revenue… they gotta do something to fight back!

Cook at home. :)

Restaurants need to come up with some kind of deals now-a-days because people have been buying less and less with the shape our economy is. Arby’s even came up with a whole meal for $5.

There isn’t restaurant on this planet that will save you money compared to eating at home. I will go with your last bit of advice.

Just let up on the filler like the biscuits and you should be fine.

Oh. The KFC 7 piece meal is supposed to be for the whole family. Silly me. I assumed it was just the “super size” portion.

I guess that explains the upset stomach.
