My local grocery store had ground beef at 2.50 a pound. I priced it out per burger, with the fixings it costs under $3 for two 1/3 pound burgers. The other week we did steaks (top sirloin $10/pound) and potatoes which were still cheaper than a combo. I haven’t been to McD’s in years. I guess I’m too cheap.
