Re: Daily Achievements!
Maccas IS expensive now, isn't it @TAB @Eve7 ? Thank goodness I don't go there much. Can't say I have a taste for Maccas.
As for fish and chips, I hope the $70 meal filled the family! I went out the other week to a little cafe. Since COVID, they now have surcharges for everything! Surcharge for card payment, surcharge for weekends, surcharge for a plastic bag, surcharge for a takeaway container.... hrm... I've even seen a meme about all these surcharges.
But I also acknowledge how difficult it is for restaurant owners. Staff shortages, huge spike in raw ingredients, long wait times for deliveries...
I don't have an answer.

Re: Daily Achievements!
We never had much as kids either only school uniforms, books and food. You would think my parents were operating an orphanage @TAB. But they were a product of war. I avoid takeaway as much as possible, just heat up gluten free pies, have DIY baked fish and chips with salad. BTW, we are seeing the middle classes slipping through the cracks and businesses being bankrupted, people will lose their money through the banks by default so we will eventually all be on a basic universal income.
