Chick-fil-A raised their prices everywhere, so it can’t just be because of this law:
“That's right: A year ago, in January of 2023, Chick-fil-A implemented a 6% price increase on all menu items. The previous year, their signature sandwich increased in price by 15%. That means your favorite chicken sandwich is now significantly pricier than it was just two years ago”

- dismalaf 1y agoCompare restaurant price increases over the last 20 years to that of the overall economy. Or especially to something like housing. Restaurants are currently incredibly cheap.
- crooked-v 1y agoThat's a bad comparison because the much more important factor is that housing is incredibly and disproportionately expensive right now, not becuase that's the 'natural' state of the economy, but because almost every major US city has made it expensive to build housing and impossible to build middle-density housing. Or in other words, your 'cheapness' comparison is only against a self-inflicted artifical high point.
- dismalaf 1y agoOk, then compare it to grocery prices. Or other forms of entertainment like tickets to professional sporting events. Or concerts, movies. Restaurants are cheap.
- JumpCrisscross 1y ago> compare it to grocery prices Do you have this comparison?
- rascul 1y agoFor the price of approximately three Chick-fil-A chicken sandwiches I can make approximately 8 chicken sandwiches from WalMart with lesser quality ingredients and no labor/tax/insurance overhead. According to my drunken wish-i-had-a-napkin math.
