So this is the 1975 McDonald's Menu that JJ and Henrietta was able to get - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Two Big Macs, two orders of fries and two milkshakes. Based on that menu that only cost a total of $3.30 in 1975

if I wanted to buy that same thing today it would cost me close to $20 with tax lol

I am referring to the episode when JJ stated he took Henrietta out on the town with $1 and bought two big macs, two orders of fries and two milkshakes and went to the movies and shared a snickers bar and still came home with 37 cents jiggling in his jeans. And then later revealed he owe Henrietta $5.25

No wonder Michael was happy about $5.00

Big Macs were JJ's favorite food! Only .75 cents so I wonder how often he went.

I guess it makes sense because a Whopper was 99 cents in the 90s which I didnt realize until Burger King had a turn back the clock promotion recently

The "Hot 'n Now Hamburgers" near where I was working in 1989 had 39 cent burgers. Jackass employees though.

Yeah 'Hot 'N' Now' had a slogan, "So Good, So Fast, So Cheap". I sort of agree with the "Good", definitely agree with the "Cheap", and don't agree with the "Fast"!
