still $5.45
They had been $4.95 up until very recently!
$5.45 for quite a while in Canberra
Big Mac Index
$5.45 for at least 2 years in NSW. Hokey pokey flavour too, atm. Nice way to try it without spending a fortune. Wouldnt get again :S
$4.40 here
Or $5.45 in a happy meal…
Who does that though?
I just had a quarter pounder, cheeseburger, small chips, small coke for $6.95 for 30 seconds of effort.
Many things can be done with 30 seconds of effort
You can steal half a car
You wouldn't download a car
Can you really last that long (lol)
Downing a shot? If I sipped on it, sure
Lol well that deal is only temporary.
When you have 6 accounts there is always a temporary deal.
True OzBargainer!
Cheese burger is nothing.
Its just a 2 mouthful snack
And such poor quality bread and meat.
$4.50 is ridiculousWhat about the 30 mins of effort required afterwards to clear out the arteries?
$4.15 SA
.Wow. That's so crazy. What's a hamburg now? Or a quarter pounder? They're tiny little things cheeseburgers, i could eat 3 or 4 in one go.
A Hamburg is a big city in the north of Germany, not sure what it has to do with cheeseburgers.
Ich bin ein
BerlinerHamburger" Say my name "
" You are Scheissenberg "
" You're got tem reich "Ich bin mein hamburger. 🤣🤣🤣 We obviously had the same textbooks. So fluent I don't even realise when I'm replacing english with German.
What's a hamburg now
Bugs.
Yeah time to go without food, fasting long with keto to save $$ trust me
Isn’t buying Maccas another version of going without food?
Eat enough and it’s like a detox.
nutrients*
Fasting not eating food saves money? Wow, who would have thought 🤣
And let me guess. It weighs less too.
Of course it does.
Quarter pounder is the size that a cheeseburger used to be, and the big mac is pathetically small.
and the big mac is pathetically small.
Honestly haven't been to Maccas in awhile. But I can remember the last time I got the Big mac and I thought.. do you call this Big????
Can't imagine the size of it but the ones now must be even smaller. 😵Pretty sure the big mac uses the same patties as the hamburger, and they're wafer thin too. A quick look on the maccas site says roughly 90g of uncooked beef for the big mac.
Not sure why I got downvoted, probably by someone who thinks maccas is good value.

Yeah unfortunately I don't think most people will notice the changes since years ago, except for that obscure Aussie youtuber who has been buying every Maccas burger for 20+ years and is inspecting/weighing and checking/comparing the Maccas site ingredients and documenting all the changes.

Here's the thing. At some point I decided I will just go to the local burger joint instead because even though they cost more (not as much more as you expect these days, last time I went to Maccas and a large meal cost me over $15+) the local place also gives more and not just bread either you get more of every ingredient and probably equal amount in chips (in terms of size, just the chips are thicker at local) and more drink (a 600ml bottle will have more than a large Maccas cup IMO everyone knows if you get ice it's a (profanity) ripoff) and on top of all this, the local is a 3 min drive compared to a 20+ minute Maccas run so petrol costs saved. I just concluded on the odd days I feel like a burger, I will just support local and in my case get better value for my money.

I thought they were a myth. They actually exist?
Warning: the quoted post may contain traces of hyperbole
@coffeeinmyveins Now they need to come up with a new name and call them the "Small Mac" instead of "Big" lol.
Make your own. Brioche bun, mustard, ketchup, dehydrated onion soaked in water for a bit, 1/10th pound of 80% lean beef mince, salt, pepper, and slice of cheese.
No pickles?
No mustard?
Damn, I always forget the pickles.
Cheeseburger, hold the pickles
No worries
Are you holding the pickles?
pickles are the best thing on it
Sweet mustard pickles too… like 333 brand… not those awful American sour gherkins McD's use that smell like cat vomit.
$2 for a hamburger, add a single slice of cheese to it making it a cheeseburger… $4.50
Can't deny it's the cheese that makes the burger edible.
"edible"
I actually prefer it without the cheese, though I find McHamburger without cheese is so dry it almost always gives me hiccups.
Dryer than a dead dingoes donga. Even with sauce.
Don't forget the sauce and mustard
You can order a slice of cheese from the condiments menu. 85c ea where I am.
Seriously. Whenever we get maccas this is what we do for my daughter. Get the burger and when we get home she adds a slice of cheese. An extra $2.5 for a slice of cheese is insane.
Buying McDonalds and eating it at home is so depressing. I just think about all the other things I could have bought or cooked.
That's the depressing part of the eating experience?
Meh. Not really. We cook at home almost every night. And when we’re too tired and want take out, my small kids almost always want McDonald’s over other options.
I don’t see how my picking up maccas drive through on the way home from work is depressing. But 🤷🏻♀️
@Laurana: When you're throwing out three barely eaten Happy Meals at a time it gets old pretty quick.
Dats cheap these days
McDouble was $2 …. yonks ago.
Good times.
McDonalds in Piccadily Arcade Perth used to do a student happy hour with 95c cheeseburgers in the 90s/00s
Maccas had $1 hamburgers just a couple of years ago too
wasn't it called the dollar menu or something? Regularly saw them on there, and $2 cheeseburgers.
Hell yeah, I'd always make $2 double hamburgers, would even add cheese and avocado at home sometimes
@So Was Red: It may get removed but can you explain the origins of your username? Strangely intrigued.
McDouble is the best burger on the menu. Two patties, one slice of cheese. It shits all over the Double Cheeseburger.
Do you mean WAS the best burger?
I remember McD's cheeseburgers being $1 each with a coupon. Triple cheese burger $3.
Yes, I feel old.
They had some amazing deals around 2011 as well; $1 cheeseburgers, $2 McMuffins etc. Was a godsend as a broke uni student.
$4.10 at my local maccas
I wonder if Maccas charge more in povvo areas or charge less in povvo areas.
$4.10 at my local non povo Sydney store. Still a rip off.
Non povvo people don’t eat Maccas so the demand is less which results in cheaper prices.
$4.30 in Logan Central.
I’m pretty sure my local is owned by maccas head office rather than a franchise
They probably charge more on poorer areas as that’s where they would sell more.
Probably, also, they charge more out regional which would have some justification perhaps, but pay with the app and I think you get the standard prices.
I always assumed a standard price per country.
I only buy either double quarter pounder or double Big Mac, not really concerned about just the plain double cheeseburger because they're really flat out small and a waste of money…
every thing is going up in prices food.drinks ect
Push for $7.50 !!! because people will pay it, and then they will argue their right to pay it.
I don't eat this crap.Prime example of corporate greed in an inflationary environment. If people expect inflation to go up (via news reports and macroeconomic indicators), corporates have an incentive to raise prices even if their input costs haven't changed. Pure greed.
Yep, these businesses are all saying they are raising costs due to "inflation" but then post record profits. Wonder how that works? It works because the inflation alone would mean a price increase of, say, 9% but they increase by 15%.
At the end of the day large businesses don't lose, consumers do,.
By “costs”, they mean CEO salaries and shareholder dividends. Also if a company isn’t making more profit year-on-year, suddenly everyone will say “oh no such-and-such corporation is going bankrupt”.
Who needs Maccas cheeseburgers when you have Coles' cheeseburger sauce.
You’re a bit mixed up my friend.
Ah the copycat Ketchup and mustard sauce
You know something has really gone wrong with the Australian palate when they start to SEEK OUT a sauce that tastes like McDonalds.
Seriously though, I bought that sauce once when it first came out, based on what the bottle said, and was so ANGRY when I tasted it and realised I'd bought some nasty crap that tastes like McD's, lol.
Yum. I love cheeseburgers.
Ate cheeseburger and they are soggy. Microwave no fresh. 🤮
no fresh
Honestly though, what are you expecting for a few bucks from maccas? You aren't paying $25 for a sit down meal at a restaurant with a nice burger.
And that’s also a load of wank.
May as well buy a party size pack of Twisties at the same price now, will fill you up a lot more.
"party size" is what used to just be normal size too.
Very odd choice of food to compare it to xD
Why not burger rings? xD
It has burger in the name 🍔
An average cook can make a cheeseburger many times better than a maccas cheeseburger.
Agreed, Maccas cheeseburgers are awful compared to any other burger they sell, the only thing that isn't worse is their disgusting hamburgers
Yeah but these are targeted at people that spend half their day away from their kitchen, shopping at the supermarket with no shopping list who are suddenly hungry.
Low ball 'em
