With another 30kcal i can eat magnum, another 50kcal i can eat cornetto royale.

No love for Baskin-Robbins?

I thought Baskin-Robbins is more popular

baskin is just like kfc! junk! lol

premium ice cream tastes good
sweet but doesnt taste too sweet

That's the price of a freakin' choco top back then!

erm, inflation? duh
korang kena paham, when we say "average inflation is ~4%", three very important things:

1) 4% is the inflation of a selected basket of goods by MOF; doesn't at all apply to all items. Mcd Sundae is not on the list.

2) 4% is the average of the selected basket of goods. so if say kangkung no change but timun up 10%, average the two it becomes 5%. this basket of goods includes things like housing, petrol, cars, consumer electronics like washing machine and laptop. so huge noticeable increases in 1 sector can be balanced out by 0 movement or even deflation in another sector. consider thumbdrives: 256mb used ot be RM200 or more when it first came out, remember? now 32GB is what, Rm50? this huge drop in price, believe me, is averaged out by increases elsewhere.

3a) last but not least, which average figure is being used? average of the past 3 months, 1 year, 20 years annualised? 4% per annum inflation over 20 years means at the end of 20 years a Rm1 Sundae Cone is now Rm2.19. 3b) furthermore, as you may have noticed, the price doesn't tambah 5 sen every year on year. Rather, it remains steady for a few years then price is increased in 1 big step, usually in response to economic contractions or recessions.

this is how the economy truly works. not whatever cock made up conspiracy story most people believe. fairly basic knowledge but nobody cares...

as this guy says, Sundae Cone is Rm1 since year 2000

at a rate of 4% pa, 2 years ago (2020) it should have hit Rm2.19, theoretically

arguably Mcd is giving us a discounted product, compared to general inflation. fact is that Sundae Cone is actually a loss leader.

I’ve decided to ditch McD, every f-in time their Coke, Sprite, Milo taste worse than ass. Coke and Sprite no gas and just like horrible sugar syrup, Milo no oomph (all taken without ice usually). Drinks quality just down the shitter

i found this on my google photos taken on 2002.. its been RM1 for a long time

it was 50 sen circa 97/98 i think.

Cheap and affordable

Rental UP, operating cost UP, electricity UP, ingredients UP, cleaning agents UP, even paper cone holders UP. No surprise that they'll tax a bit more on one of their BEST SELLING item.

Cukur malangsia hai incum cuntry

McD few times a year increase bit by bit. Now choc sundae is 3.90, up from 3.75, and before that 3.50.

Go eat BR lah.....

I like Cold Stone the best.

U missed 1.30 b4 1.50

Do you eat this everyday? if you do and you still complain, you really set your financial priority wrong.

Sundae cone is rm1 way b4 2000
