They usually charge $2 for a toy without a happy meal  at least they
used to a couple of years ago...might have gone up by now.

price on a 30c Soft Serve.

I have nothing to do with McDonalds, but they never ask to Size Up... Its not their policy..
but KFC Always do.... and Burger King always did
plus Maccas have many low fat/sugar etc meals these days...
they now sell a lot more than just Hamburgers...:thumb
[but I'd eat a happy meal just to get a Kombi] lol:P:P
I liked Hungry Jacks burgers until I saw a magazine article with the fat content... more than double Maccas....:o
Yikes:P

lee ur right...hungry jacks has more fat etc because of their sauces in the burgers...
I never thought it true...until i read some of the phamlets they put out...(I always knew reading was bad for me...now i dont eat hungrys)
And yes, after being sued left right and center, maccas decided to put fresh food out so they can no longer be blamed for a persons poor choice.....so
now u can buy nice tastier food, and purchase the toy as well...
I now just have to hide them from my son aj...:P

chris, I would loan her to you as I know she is safe, you dont even go for hot chicks with a pair of hot brattwurst croissants in foreign accents!
I just went to my local McD's, not on sale yet. 'Later' this week. Looks like we might be doing the mcdonalds dinner every night this week. Wonder
if US mcdonalds has them. Maybe we could make a fortune and assist the balance of trade figures as well.

The other cars that came out last friday are almost twice the size of a matchbox car. So I'm guessing Filmore will be around the same. Usually the
maccas near us put out their new toys on a thursday or friday.
Sometimes, it pays to go to one that is not in a busy spot too, as they don't run out as soon as others.

Just on the "goodness" of the McDonalds food, I have been told buy a health inspector that in a survey 98% said they would prefer no Gerkin on their
burger.BUT if said greenery is removed the burger would then have so much total sugar content that they would be deemed CONFECTIONARY!

A friend of a friend who works for a major bread maker said they class the buns as confectionary because there is so much sugar in them. But I cant
see how it could be true, why would you worry about putting sugar in a bun? Not like bread is sour.
I'm pretty sure thats an urban myth. I've heard it so many times it just has to be.

I love mcdonalds, not for its nutritional qualities, but for the service and cleanliness. Comparing the average McD's to any KFC, Burger King, Hungry
Jacks, its just chalk and cheese. I refuse to eat at the burger king near me. Its so filthy its scary.
And their toys are heaps better.

LOL!!
Speaking of hungry jacks, u eva tried that new double beef and bacon or wateva burger with the mushroom sauce!! F-N FILTHY!!
was like as though they got a scoop of dead cat and put it between 2 buns.
the mushroom sauce was like jelly, and felt disgusting. i didn't see any mushrooms in there either :o
However, thumbs up for the 30c cones, they give more icecream and taste creamier than maccas (sure that means its worse for ya though), but the
unlimited free drink refills is kool too, especially when u share a cup with a good mate. (without killing each other in sharing illnesses)

I went to nearby McDonalds today.
Yes the CARS happy meals are out now.
They have a choice this week of the red one (Lightning McQueen) or the blue one (Doc Hudson)
Saw all the characters on the shelf.. they all are slightly bigger than the matchbox ones..........DAM no filmore this week....try next week
Also if anyone is chasing a matchbox filmore & still can't find one, I have a few spares you can buy off me :thumb
