“McDonald’s Corp. says it has been testing higher priced versions of its famous value menu. The Dollar Menu & More that was tested has three price points -$1, $2 and $5 or ‘shareable’ items such as 20-piece McNuggets. Another version that was tested has prices of $1, $1.79 and $4.99. Earlier this year, Wendy’s revamped its 99-cent menu to a ‘Right Price Right Size’ menu, with prices ranging up to around $2. Sure looks like signs of price inflation, not deflation, to me.”
