I realize: McD's Breakfast.

The following was brought to my attention during breakfast at McD's this morning. Kindly take note that all prices stated are not inclusive of taxes and has been double confirmed with its prices stated on the McD's website (this shall serve as a disclaimer as well):
  1. A weekday breakfast special Egg McMuffin with Chicken Roll plus coffee set costs RM 4.50
  2. The breakdown of items on the receipt showed that the coffee is actually more expensive than the muffin, almost doubling it (bloody hell)
  3. The usual Egg McMuffin with Chicken Roll breakfast set costs RM 8.00
  4. And the A La Carte, which I assume to refer only to the muffin, costs RM 4.60
  5. The Hash Brown, at A La Carte price, costs RM 2.75
So, if I were to purchase the breakfast special and then add on a hash brown, that would total up to RM 7.25, which is cheaper than the breakfast set. Or if I just wanted an Egg McMuffin, it would be cheaper to buy the special set then give/sell the coffee away than to purchase it via A La Carte. Kindly take note that this would not be applicable during weekends.

Weird aye?
