It's a place where wild claims can be instantly debunked!!!

Go to here (it is a link on The Internet): https://www.fastfoodmenuprices.com/burgerville-prices/

There you will find this amazing information:

"three of their cheapest burgers" would be $1.65 x 3 = $4.95

"two small orders of french fries" gonna run $3.90

AND!!!

Two LARGE!!!11! milkshakes pretty much doubles your price, costing $8.98.

Add those three numbers for me.

Do they add up to anywhere in the vicinity of $45? (I will help you. The number is $17.83. So you're only off by 250%.)

You're as convincing as the $16 Big Mac liar.
