Sounds like you don't pay for a family of people. I went out to dinner last night at a low/mid tier restaurant and it was over $100.

Gonna need more info. How many people did that feed? What is your definition of “mid tier restaurant?”

Did you spend $68 to feed 3 at Popeye's? If not, your comment is pretty irrelevant to this thread.

In my area, the three piece combo - fries, drink, and a biscuit - is $16.79 before tax on UberEats for pickup, and I'm in a fairly low COL area. $68 for three sounds about right.

Dining prices are up to an extraordinary amount compared to pre-COVID. Prices never went back down despite inflation being "reigned in". Being surprised at a $68 bill at Popeyes just expresses you don't have a family to provide for, which is probably the default position of most of the posters on this forum.

I eat a lot of fast food, including Popeye's. I buy for myself sometimes, other times I'm buying for groups of various sizes.

It has gotten more expensive. But if you're spending $68 for 3 people at Popeye's, someone in that group is eating at levels that will eventually win them a spot on "My 600lb Life".

I have a family to provide for. I'm surprised at a $68 bill at Popeyes. Taking my family there is normally a good bit less than that. Maybe if it was in some tourist trap area or something, but generally that would be quite high.
