Wendy’s has spoken to its manager after suggestions that it plans to introduce “surge pricing” to its menu received a decidedly frosty response this week, with the company scrambling to clarify that it has no intention of making itself the Uber of fast-food chains.
Seems fun as a novelty, and it happens at a specific stated time of day. Dynamic pricing by a fast food chain makes no sense, especially when the schedule isn’t disclosed, except to scam unwitting customers out of their money.
I totally agree.
It’s fun as a novelty. Not when it’s an excuse for the business to gouge you even harder.
