If you watch the McDonald's commercials CAREFULLY...you will see that when they advertise a special promotion, they always state somewhere in the commerial that the ad is for "participating restaurants only." This means if the operator of a particular McDonald's restaurant chooses not to have a discount, they do not have to, and are not obligated to do so.

Sorry folks, but nothing illegal, immoral, unethical or even wrong has occured here. Each store has the right to participate in any promotion - or not.
Case in point - try any McDonalds at any airport. First you'll notice that the prices are somewhat. Next you'll find that the menu is more limited, compared to the nearest one off airport property. And finally, you'll find that they rarely, if ever, particpate in any promotions. Frankly, they don't have to. They have a captive audience, and they know it. Unfortunately, it's just the nature of the business.
And in all fairness, I should probably point out that this is not limited to McDonalds, or even restaurants for that matter. Prices are adjusted in relation to the neighborhood, economy, physical location, etc. in many different enterprises. Most obvious is gas stations.

Barbara,
i understand how you feel. however your looking at $1 differnece. For one, you should never eat at mc donalds. the food is not the least bit healthy for you. If your looking for some good chicken nuggets try Costco or even red robin! Try to avoid any fast food knowing the fact its fast food. you should want your food simmering in the juices and cooked thuroughly to its perfection. Well im through. i cant believe the world we are living in.
