Fast food restaurant Wendy’s plans Uber-like surge pricing, with digital menu boards that change prices depending on demand::The price of a Wendy’s Frosty could soon fluctuate throughout the day as the chain looks to introduce Uber-like surge pricing on its menu.
I feel like the easiest way to stop this bullshit is for states with EBT programs to take away Wendy’s ability to charge EBT cards.
Wanna dabble with surge pricing? Fine, but you’ll lose all your customers that are on welfare.
Wow, I didn’t know that some states allow fast food to be purchased by a EBT card. Can’t get away doing that in the south.
You have to be homeless. Where are they gonna prepare food? Sidewalks aren’t exactly sanitary
I don’t think you can buy any fast food with EBT…? I’m actually surprised they let you buy soda with EBT. EBT doesn’t pay sales tax so they limit what you can spend it on.
Homeless people get the hot meals program, cause they don’t have a fridge or oven in their tent
The thing where I used to live was to use it to buy redbull then sell it outside the store.
I didn’t think you could get hot/prepared food with EBT? When I was on it, I couldn’t even heat up a fucking sandwich in the gas station microwave before paying for it.
Homeless people only. They don’t have a place to prepare food, so some fast food places will take EBT.
