    Not surprising. Restaurants have become even more expensive and people already don’t have money to waste. Plus many of us are remote or hybrid.

    Went to Taco Bell yesterday for the first time in a year… $48 dollars for 8 crunchy tacos supreme, two steak chalupas, and a crunch wrap supreme. The meal for the fam was a collosal disappointment.

      Taco Bell is expensive unless you use their app now. Do the Online Exclusive menu and you can get the $5-$6 meal box with drink.
