McD's pricing Happy Meal Toys

Postby Silver_Surfer1 » Fri Dec 2, '11, 6:20 am

Some McDonald's restaurants are beginning to charge a price for Happy Meal Toys. The toys were previously free with a purchased Happy Meal but due to some restrictions and a ban where restaurants can not give away these toys with a meal, this is hopefully a good compromise and a way where kids can still get a toy if they want one.

What do you think about the fee McD's is charging for these toys? :up: or :down: ?

That's an inventive way of getting around the law. If it's a success, I would not be surprised to see other stores in areas not affected by the law adopt the same practice. It's a very low price and the proceeds will likely provide a nice boost to that charity.

I just wonder how long it will take before supporters of the "ban free toys" law try to make "ban toys altogether" law.
