Imagine waiting in a drive through and the price changes on you while you are there.
Imagine waiting in a drive through.

“Pull up to window 1 to find out your total.”
“pull up to window 2 to pay the surg-arge applied after window 1”…
at the last window, “we need another $3.50 to give you your food”
“You guys are still staffing window 1?”
when i was a kid, drive-thru was ‘new’. one place, instead of redoing the whole building to put in a drive-thru window and work area behind the counter, used a chain-driven basket to carry drive-thru orders that went up and over the dining area then down to a pick-up window.
8-year-old me thought that was just the coolest thing. they operated like that for a decade before finally rebuilding to reposition the building on the lot to better fit a drive-thru lane and pick-up windows.
“we need another $3.50 to give you your food”
“For your convenience, you must now pay the Surge Fee of $3.50 to reflect up-to-the-minute pricing. Please note that this is in addition to any tips that you may choose to add.”
Stoked to see the freak out videos when someone pulls up and sees a burger costs $20
It already does.
