>>11520980
i do

i've had 5 guys. they put raw jalapeno on my cheeseburger which was a nice surprise, i didn't know places had the balls to use those, they're usually pickled.
expensive proposition though, $6 for a single cheeseburger with jalapenos, but i'm a floridafag, maybe everything is more expensive here

>>11520980
People who pay for drugs and prostitutes, and people who get tipped in cash.

houstonfag here. $7.79 for a fucken shit tier burger

>>11521043
The real travesty here is the price of that soda.

A double bacon cheese and a large fries with a small drink costs me like $14 from there and i live in los angeles.
Where do you live OP?
There's an in-n-out next to the one i go to and a combo with less food is about $10 there I don't understand all the memes about the price.
Are some people so abhorrently poor and shit with money that they still have to consider 4 dollar differences after choosing to eat out?
5 gays is literally amazing you fag.

jesus christ, sometimes 2 liters of coca-cola go on special here for $1.00, usually they're $1.59, and the 16oz bottles are over $2

$4 a day a weekday is almost 1k per year. I'm hardly rich but much better off than my peers, and I live pretty well here in Hong Kong.

>>11520965
Most pub burgers on the coast are $14 bucks and dont taste nearly as good as 5 guys.

I just got a drink, medium fry (to share with a friend) and a little (see: normal) cheeseburger for $13. The burgers are a bit pricy but balanced out by the assumption you'll load it up with toppings. The fries at first seem expensive but they scale up well. A medium fry there will feed two people better than two large fries from elsewhere. A single large fry there will feed a family.

>>11520980
I always carry loads of cash and a pocket knife, fuck the banks

>>11520980
I went to a McDonalds and they would only take cash because all of their machines were down for cards.
I was at a loss since it's [Current Year] and no one carries cash around other than extremely small bills. Needless to say I just left.

>>11520980
People who don't have the discipline to pay their credit card bills on time and missing out on that sweet, sweet cash back of 1%-5% and free fraud protection. It's like they hate money.

Only reason to use cash is drugs, prostitutes, or if you can get a cash discount. If you're doing these things or traveling you can just get the cash you need out of an ATM no big deal.

>>11520980
Because you know, credit systems never go down or anything.

>>11520965
I'll just get the fuck out and go to the supermarket

>>11520980
Many people do.

>>11521029

Debit :)

>>11521838
Cash is much more flexible than CC's and doesn't track your expenditures.

For me, it's dine and dash

>>11521848
>Cash is much more flexible than CC's
Is it that hard not to bend your credit card? Jesus Chriist

>>11521848
>and doesn't track your expenditures.
Why are you possibly worried about this conspiracy theory bullshit. Do you really think using a wildly outdated and less convenient form of purchase makes up for some people you don't know having some vague metadata derived from you?

>>11521848
The fuck are you talking about? I realize places exist that don't take cards but they're rare as fuck. And you get 1 to 5 percent cash back just for fucking using it. You just pay it off with the debit account the same day.

>>11521734
thats incredibly rare. I carry a little cash in case I go to an obstinate retailer who requires it but card systems going down is barely even a thing, probably been 10 years since I have experienced that

>>11521036

The coast has some seriously shit pubs then. I don't dislike Five Guys at all beyond the prices, but a proper sitdown burger should still be much, much better.

>>11520980
I ordered a $14 CAD meal at this fast food kebab place, the girl at the front hands me the machine while I clearly had the cash in hand. I had to tell her "cash". Wasn't it supposed to be the other way around? When did debit and credit become the assumed mediums of exchange in small transactions instead of plain old cash?

>>11522338
Most disturbing image I've seen all month.

>>11522341
>When did debit and credit become the assumed mediums of exchange in small transactions instead of plain old cash?
Like 15 years ago. Are you fucking 80?

>>11522379
I'm 20, dude. People regularly use debit/credit for sub $100 transactions? That's news to me, man.

>>11522390
Do you live in the third world?

I noticed when I was in mainland europe cash only places were much more common but in places like America and England we have moved beyond the paper era.
Cash was basically only useful for splitting the cost of something else with a friend who put it on their card, but now venmo has made even that use obsolete

>>11522338
This is all in USD. Cheeseburger is 6.89 in the U.S. and is bigger than most places hamburgers by a longshot. Fries (small) are 2.79. Anyone short of a professional athlete or actual hamplanet should not eat their normal size fries alone since its like 2x a McDonalds large. Milkshakes are a luxury and are 3.99 which isnt even that crazy. You're getting ripped off in Londonistan or something.

Shake Shack ruined 5 guys forever for me. Whats the point. Only problem is my goddamn town has a BurgerFi, a Red Robin and a Five Guys but no Shake Shack

>>11522777
$7 for a fast food burger is very high

>>11521809
Yeah.
Both places are good, but 5 guys is better imo.
Plus there's never a nigger huge line like always at the other place.
If 5 guys did animal style fries i bet they would be fucking amazing.

Another good spot around here is the habit, which i also believe is better than in-n-out.
The fries really hold in-n-out back, and the shakes that taste like flavored chalk.

>>11522338

No, but even compared to similar tier burgers like In and Out or Culvers it is more expensive

Please don't tell me you believe this.
Not only do they do fries and shakes worse, but they force religion on people through their cups and food containers. Absolute shit tier place.

>>11523081
I consider those the same thing. But no one actually does their phone. Only people in phone commercials do

>>11523084
similar enough, definitely not worth the 20% surcharge

>>11523081
Please fucking relax.
Not everyone has the flagship phones that allow you to do this like in the commercials.
Even in los angeles and new york cards and cash are still used. And those are the places where this shit first comes.

>>11522875
The higher end fast food burgers from the big chains are anywhere from 5-8. A baconator from wendy's is 6. The double from Five Guys is arguably bigger and like I said you get to pick pretty much every conventional topping you want on it. Youre imagining stuff like the Mcdouble as the standard when in reality stuff like that is bottom of the barrel in price and quality.

im sorry to break it to you but that is the price without tip. I dont think they even take tips.

>all these people who don't care about privacy

I'm glad my state is considering making it mandatory to accept cash. It'll btfo out places like Amazon Go.

>>11523218
>the vague notion of privacy

The scare tactics around this are such bullshit. They aren't gaining any information about you that you should be reasonably worried about. Do you not realize all of the incredibly useful services we get access to from giving away information that is trivial to us? Do you want to live in a world where email or maps requires a subscription, Lets not have governments ruin this for us out of misplaced fearmongering

Also why the fuck is it the government's business whether a place accepts cash?

lel

>>11523297
$5.19 for a single ShackBurger, $7.99 for a double. Fries are $2.95 or $3.95 with cheese. $1.55 to add shitty bacon and a shake is $5.50, though. If you just want a basic meal, it's not bad, like getting a premium burger at McDonalds or something. It only gets expensive when fat people go and get a double cheeseburger, hot dog, cheese fries, soda, shake.

>>11524306

Yup, that's the American south alright. How are those food stamps working out for you?

>Better quality for more money
>This is bad

I know your shitposting, but people actually think this is a bad thing.
A Five guys cheese burger(which is two patties btw) with toppings like OP pic is about 7$ or 8$. Mcdonalds burgers range from 1$-7$, So unless you're getting 1$ burgers from mcdonalds, the price isn't that different. Fries cost more than mcdonalds but you get 2x as much.

Either way, even if five guys is more expensive, they're using better ingredients. For anyone who hasn't worked there, they don't have freezers, they have coolers, the meat isn't frozen like mcdonalds it gets shipments everyday, meaning not only is the meat bigger, it's fresher, and is just generally better tasting and better meat quality. The fries are fresh cut, mcdonalds comes already factory processed. The reason five guys opens at the time it does is because they take maybe 2-4 hours to prepare everything everyday, including fresh potatos and meat coming in.

I'm not trying to say five guys is the best burger you can get, but it's 100x better than the slop you can get at mcdonalds.

>>11522341
t. 24 year old boomer

>>11524471

Who the fuck pays 18% interest on a hamburger?

>Cash or credit?
How about crashit?

Are there really zoomers that don't use cash?
I mean i use my credit card whenever I can for the rewards, but the idea of not carrying or ever using any cash sounds like an exaggeration you'd see in a comedy skit about a sheltered rich person. Like they'd been using their dad's credit card to buy everything they don't even know cash exists.

>>11527874
People with credit cards never use cash except in a few rare instances. Otherwise you're always getting cash/miles back. I'm getting 600 dollars back just from regular spending this year

>>11527871
$18 isn't a lot of money but it's a rip off for soggy burger + fries + sugar soda water. the fries are OK though, worth the price.

>>11524242
Why not just add the tax? I would hate living somewhere where a price is clearly listed then when you get up to the counter its actually $2 more because the tax wasn't just included in the price.

There are plenty of great CCs without annual fees cletus. Even some of the ones with annual fees are worth it if you're a big churner.

>>11524471
Yeah, pretty much the only people who complain about five guys are people who only eat fast food burgers.
Any person that's ever eaten out at actually good establishments will tell you that you have to pay more money for better food, including hamburgers.
Five guys is not cuisine, but it's at the top of the fast food tier list because of how it's made.

i never even post on /ck/ but jesus CHRIST is five guys really 25 dollars for 2 (TWO) cheeseburgers?

>>11524359
no, you get charged for every transaction you make. most banks offer like "first 50 transactions a month free" or whatever or free during regular business hours (with fees in irregular hours) but you get charged like $2 every time you use your card to pay for something

seriously though what does that have to do with being able to make contactless payments?

>>11528738
But for the same price I can get an decent burger or meal at a semi decent place, whereas five guys is essentially just marginally higher quality fast food. I don't care for unlimited fries cause I'm not a fat ass, but to each their own I guess.

I use my credit card for major purchases like they are supposed to be used for. $100+ dollar restaurant meals, hotel reservations and plane tickets. Credit cards are not supposed to be used for candy bars and hamburgers. I don't need a warranty on a pack of gum. My concierge service is wasted on a sandwich. Companies are making a killing on people by convincing the consumer that they should do all of their spending by credit card so they can collect their measly 1 or 2 percent cash back rewards that are going to pale in comparison to the interest that the bank is going to collect from them because people treat their cards as a separate source of income the first month, and end up carrying a balance month to month while only paying it down just enough to continue the frivolous shit cycle. They would be better served taking their cards, charging a subscription to it on the 1st, auto paying that on the 5th and locking the card up and using cash for everyday items. The money you save can be put into a high interest savings account that will get you a much better yield than any cash back that a credit card will offer. Once your credit is good enough, get an actual bank issued Visa and and an AMEX for major purchase use. Never use a card that is offered to you by mail. You would be amazed at how much money this system saves and how awesome your credit will become when using it.

What the fuck is all this projection about "cards offered by mail" and "warranty on a pack of gum"? $2 bank fee for paying by card? Annual fees? I'm seriously struggling to picture what kind of crazy background you have to come up with this kind of thinking. I've got 2 cards, neither of which has a fee, my credit score is 780, and I've never once paid a "bank fee" on a purchase other than minimal foreign transaction fees where you may have a point but almost all of my international travel goes on my work credit card anyway.

You're that asshole who holes up the line counting out pennies, aren't you? Kill yourself.

>>11529186
Yeah I've got close to a 780 myself, maybe they have welfare credit cards or those cards you get when your credit is garbage and you're trying to get your rating up. There's something about walking around without cash though that is kind of unsettling, I prefer to keep a few hundred on me for emergencies, even though I've never needed it

The thing is those "cards offered by mail" aren't even real cards, it's just a dummy card to get you to open the envelope, you still have to apply, same as if you didn't get a card by mail. I bet that guy thinks those fake checks that come in the junk mail are real checks too.

I'll carry $100-200 if I'm riding my bike out in the middle of nowhere, if I'm traveling outside a major city I'll carry $300-400 (or foreign currency equivalent) from simple paranoia because I have a knack for tripping my card company's security mode where all my cards go on lockdown because they didn't get the memo that I would be abroad, but for day to day shit, it's plastic for everything.

i don't mind paying for a good burger. 5 guys is the subway of the burger world. no matter how you order it, it's a bland slawp of shit

Lol except Yale University dining. MFers only take credit/debit or dining card. Pandering to rich fuccs

You don’t even need to go that far to see card-only vendors. The last few flights I went on were domestic flights in coach, and all would only sell booze with card payments.

Why wouldn't I use credit?

Imagine actually getting upset at the fact that people do not willingly turn themselves into card swiping debt slaves.

It makes more sense to be upset about the opposite, because it will be less than twenty years before cash isn't taken anywhere.

That's when I drop out of society, by the way, and I suggest you all do the same. Fuck the mark.

oh let me just pull out my phone amd close what I had open to wait for a payment app to open up instead of just swiping my card

Wouldnt a smart person knowing they were going to be purchasing something have the app up ahead of time? You're like those old people who go through line in a store and the cashier asks them if they have a rewards card and they fumble around all confused like "OH YEAH I DO HAVE THAT" even though they shop there every week and use it every week.

>>11536258
I assume it's some underemployed white guy who thinks that we have special magical money spells. Whenever you hear some retard raving about how credit will ruin your life and debt is a jewish trick to destroy civilization, it's a white underachiever.

I actually am asian, just not chinese.

>>11533153
"the mark" if anything is paper money. Everybody needs it to buy or sell anything, which logically means that's assuredly muh Satan but you don't see anyone freaking out about it.

>I assume it's some underemployed white guy who thinks that we have special magical money spells

It sounds to me like a reference to the Chinese "Social Credit System".

>>11537247
You obviously have never been to Taiwan or Japan

>>11538699
I guess that works if you don't do much of anything.

Cards suck for making cash offers on things, garage sales, flea markets, tips/bribes, etc.

>>11538730
It's a pretty clumsy reference considering there is an actual social credit system here, and it is called social media

The modern US credit reporting system was actually designed specifically because the first iteration was deemed excessively Orwellian, having a high credit score has absolutely nothing to do with your political views or how many "likes" you got

On the other hand today's zoomers can't even get an entry level job without having their social media accounts run through an AI black box that spits out scores for things like "empathy", "hostility", and so on

The reason they're priced like that is because you're meant to order a ton of toppings. Also they use better quality beef than say McDonald's.

aussie that lives in Japan here. it's entirely cash-only here. you only use your bank card to get more cash out.
on the plus side though there's no crime here, so it's pretty common to withdraw your entire pay and just carry a few thousand dollars in your wallet all the time. not like anyone's gonna steal it

>>11538738
You’re right, I haven’t
