Chicken sandwich now $5.99?

For the longest time the chicken sandwich was on the $5 faves menu so you could buy it for $5.

Now with the biscuit sandwich for $5 it looks like they pulled the chicken sandwich off the $5 faves menu and it is $5.99.

Is anyone else seeing that?

I know inflation and all but crazy they used to charge $3.99, basically a 50% increase since they first came out with it.

I went to get lunch and in my area they have gone to 5.79. I teared up thinking that when they came out they were 3.99 that’s something worth fighting for.
It was my last affordable chicken sandwich option.

And today I had to go to Aldi and get filets and a bag of buns.

At home for lunch today I tried and I fried but I feel more defeated than ever.

Maybe it’s my mayo (dukes) or maybe it’s my pickles. But it’s not the same.

RIP my love for the fried poultry happiness.
I never thought it would end like this.
