It hit me looking at the menu board, they haven't jacked up pricing like all other Fast Food places. They have always paid more that minimum wage, and with all the increases at other places they are now cheaper for better quality.

p.s. the lines at In n Out are amazing. Almost 15 to 20 cars deep all day long. I picked up my car at a tire place across the parking lot from an In N N Out yesterday @ 2:00 PM. The In N Out lot was full, 15 cars in drive through, and the first six slots of the tire place were filled with cars going to get a burger.
