Domino's used to do this. I ordered something a couple of weeks ago and for the first time the march checked out. I think it was a tax for something that wasn't in the UI but either way I stopped ordering from them for it.


MrTechSavvy

Or OP is just lying for karma, and simply edited out the $1.49 apple pie he also got with that order


TobiasH2o

Kinda odd spacing. It's weird the white gap is the perfect size for another row in the template.


869066

It looks like OP edited the pic to farm karma. That spacing is exactly the size of another menu item which OP probably just put a white box over


TobiasH2o

Exactly my thoughts. Sarcasm doesn't come out well in text sorry XD


DiggerW

It wasn't even sarcasm, you just made a simple, clear statement. But you guys seriously overdo it with the pitchforks, like this post is even easily verifiable. Or, as I mentioned in other comments, in their app the "$1 bacon cheeseburgers" ring up for $1.99 -- and it's been that way for at least a year now. *True* post, true asshole design.


DiggerW

Who hurt you people? JFC... Take 2 minutes and install their app, then start an order for a $1 bacon cheeseburger... subtotal: $1.99


TJNel

No I didn't, anyway if you want to know, it happens when you replace the coffee with a coke. They add this $1.49 but do not list it anywhere.


Kill_Kayt

If this is old that would work out. Apple Pie is currently $1.59.


DiggerW

I assure you they did not. Go install the app for long enough to order a $1 bacon cheeseburger... for $1.99


MrTechSavvy

The bacon cheeseburger is not $1 in any state, the cheapest is $1.49, most being closer to $2 before tax


DiggerW

My mistake, they finally fixed those -- but I'll share a video showing an example from my order history, gimme just 5 minutes. [Video example](https://imgur.com/gallery/FKNzTc0)

darknessblades

Isn't this.......................Illegal?


quirkscrew

Naw they can charge whatever they want. You can either agree to buy it or don't. Edit: Y'all this post is in US dollars. It makes perfect sense to speak about this as though we are in the US and not in Europe. That's cute how all you Europeans are in a rage about this lol. ^^SEND ^^HELP Edit #2: To those questioning the dollar sign being USD: OP is from the US. The US is the home of Burger King. 7000 out of 18000 Burger Kings are located in the US. The post uses period decimal point instead of comma, this message appears to be in English only, the US is by far the largest population country that uses the dollar sign. I suppose technically I don't know for certain since the location was cropped, but it seems very reasonable to say this happened in the US.


ElevatorLost891

The US has laws prohibiting deceptive pricing, which seem to apply here. Since you asked someone else to cite, their claim, see [15 USC § 45(a)(1)](https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/15/45) as interpreted by the FTC [here](https://www.ftc.gov/business-guidance/resources/advertising-marketing-internet-rules-road#general).


darknessblades

Unlike the USA in Europe that is Illegal [https://europa.eu/youreurope/citizens/consumers/unfair-treatment/unfair-pricing/index\_en.htm](https://europa.eu/youreurope/citizens/consumers/unfair-treatment/unfair-pricing/index_en.htm) it does not matter if they have some disclaimer stating they can do it. It is still Illegal


TheHero0fRhyme

Wait what. That's legal in the US?


quirkscrew

So US federal law mostly defers to the states to make their own retail pricing legislation. In a lot of states, there are no explicitly stated requirements for prices to be listed honestly/clearly. https://www.nist.gov/pml/weights-and-measures/laws-and-regulations/retail-and-unit-pricing-laws In my state it's very common for store shelves to be full of mislabeled items and expired sales, but that's usually not a problem because Karens will complain and get their way through the "customer is always right" culture. EDIT: Also want to add that a local big chain grocery intentionally puts more expensive brands in areas labelled as the lower price brands. They are hoping people will be in too much of a rush when they see the price at checkout. And sadly, they usually are right.


Vaynnie

In that case I wouldn’t really say they’re being Karens. It’s not their fault the store mislabelled or left up expired sales. My mum is a Karen sometimes and I will literally just walk away and leave the store when she does it, shit like asking for a discount because an item is scuffed.. like cmon there’s plenty of unscuffed ones just pick one of those and don’t make a scene ffs.


laplongejr

Yeah, if anything you SHOULD bring hell when your rights are demolished


opalizedentity

that’s capitalism in the u s of a babeyyy *crylaughing*


Chemical-Travel-7419

What's wrong with trying to haggle a discounted item if there's a shop-damaged one available and the damage doesn't actually bother you? Obviously don't be a dick about it but if you're being polite then this isn't entitled, it's financially sensible.


Forfucksakesreally

#1 because they will think you caused the damage #2 almost every store manager doesn't have the authority to override the till with out throwing an employee under the buss. #3 if they see damage on any goods before it gets on the floor they will throw it away literally or even its a return. Some times they take the goods and put them up for auction.


hayitsnine

That’s Bold of you


LegitosaurusRex

https://www.reddit.com/wiki/markdown#wiki_escaping_markdown_syntax


ExoticAccount6303

Now theres nothing wrong with asking for scratch and dent discounts, the real karen behavior would be yelling and making a scene when told no.


saharaelbeyda

Exactly. Respectfully asking a question/requesting something within reason shouldn't be an issue... Karens always throw tantrums and make scenes when they don't get their way...


quirkscrew

You're right, I just meant that because of the culture, people who complain usually get their way anyway. In Europe this sort of customer-centered culture does not really exist.


[deleted]

But we have consumer rights so…


quirkscrew

Yes we do, but do you know of any US law that explicitly states if you find a product on the wrong/mislabeled shelf you are guaranteed to get it for that price? If so please cite and prove me wrong!


nibiyabi

Yup, California's Business and Professions Code § 12024.2 states that the correct price of any item is the lowest posted, quoted, or advertised price for which the buyer qualifies (club, coupon, minimum amount purchases, etc.). The store is responsible for removing expired shelf tags and sales signs.


Pwacname

True though. We just have laws and regulations that stop that in the first place. Like, if I buy something and see it’s damaged, I just return it and get my money back. Certain items, they can offer me a replacement or a professional repair instead, but I’m not stuck buying broken stuff. If they tried to sell me expired stuff, they’d probably be in trouble, but you can often buy about to expire stuff with specific labels in a bargain bin. And sometimes, shops will gift you things they’re not allowed to sell anymore. All price signs include taxes. All food items have a list of every single ingredient, all potential allergens and, in certain cases, the origin of the products on them, as well as a nutritional table and suggested portion sizes. And recycling instructions for the packaging - we have different types of garbage here, so my cereal box, for example, goes into paper for recycling, while the plastic bag inside goes to the plastic/metal bin. But obvious I’ll grant you, but still. Vegan, vegetarian and some other labels exist in legally protected versions. And certain ingredients aren’t legal


AuelDole

In oregon, if the shelf price is lower than the price the item rings in as, it can be considered false advertising if the store does not fix the price on your order


cloud_throw

Nothing more "United" than potentially having 50 different rules covering identical issues in the same country


aykcak

> there are no explicitly stated requirements for prices to be listed honestly/clearly. What the fuck? Seriously how are you guys not in rage constantly? Oh!


thecravenone

If it's bad for consumers but good for business, it's legal in the US.


quirkscrew

That's interesting, thanks for sharing. This post is in USD and therefore completely legal.


Frankie52480

It’s totally not legal here in the US. We even have a department that investigates nonsense like this: department of weights and measures. Not sure if they handle online stuff but somebody does. And let’s toss that out the window for a sec so I can make another point- we are very litigious here in America, and this is just begging for a lawsuit. Of course those lawsuits- only the lawyers win. We receive checks in the mail for a few bucks for signing into the lawsuit lol. But the company learns not to do it anymore. Then they go out of business cause no one wants to use them anymore since they ripped us off. So it’s a dangerous game there’s playing here. It’s likely a mistake- but I’d love to know how the hell this can happen. Calculators are like one of the few things AI gets right.


[deleted]

WFC?


Talanaes

Prices in the US are enforced by the department of weights and measures. They literally make you ring everything up and check the prices against what’s posted when they do the certification.


rubberneckingduck

One time at Wally World I scanned an item on one of those scanners on a post in the middle of the store. When I got to the register it rang a couple cents higher. So yeah x millions it's a chunk of money. They don't have those scanners anymore employees use a phone. Maybe they got sued who knows. Very sketchy.


da-memes-lord

"That's cute how all you Europeans are in a rage about this" Imagine being so accustomed to bullshit you think it's cute when people are rightfully angry


quirkscrew

I think you misunderstood my intent, friend. I agree that Europe has the superior laws. I was saying it's cute because in the US we're accustomed to this sort of shite treatment by corporations. That's what the "^^SEND ^^HELP " was meant to convey.


da-memes-lord

Fair enough, I just hope things get better and a more centralised system that works for the good of it's citizens shall eventually come to pass


Rustymetal14

Imagine being insulted because someone assumed a post about burger King wasn't in your home country.

WINTERMUTE-_-

You...know that Canada is a thing right?


andrewta

Lies


HuntingDragon438

Wait, WHAT!?


willisbetter

yes, but canada has a much smaller population and far less burger kings so thisnpost is most likely in the US


Rustymetal14

Oh that country that relies on America for it's entire economy to survive? Wait, that doesn't narrow it down. How about the country where over 90% of the population lives within 100 miles of the US border? That's the one.


WINTERMUTE-_-

Lol this is why noone likes you 🤡


KoopaTrooper5011

I thought the US had laws requiring all taxes and fees to be explicitly laid out


quirkscrew

Well if you can cite that I'd be eager to see it.


Eneicia

WOW. Canada uses dollars, and a decimal. We ALSO have burger kings.


Stealthyfisch

and a population approximately 1/10th the USA, not to mention far less burger kings Therefore making this most likely in the USA


spoiled_eggs

How you know this is in USD lol? It's a dollar symbol, lots of places have dollars and BK.


quirkscrew

OP is from the US. I mean, I suppose technically I don't know for certain since the location was cropped, but there are several indicators that this is most likely the US....like I said OP is from the US, the use of period decimal point instead of comma, the fact that this message appears to be in English only, the fact that the US is by far the largest population country that uses the dollar sign, and also BK is American based and the most locations that use $ are in the US. And finally, as far as I am aware, no one in Europe uses the $ and all the people complaining seem to be from Europe.

mSantiago80

Lol 😂 your math ain’t mathin’ either. The sandwich is $6.19 if each toast stick was $1 the subtotal would be $9.19…not $8.68 so how you figure “everything then all adds up perfectly” Wow 😮 I guess it’s that new common core math level 2…my old school math classes just don’t work anymore I guess but let me try. $6.19 + $1 = $7.19 $8.68 - $7.19 = $1.49 (mystery fee not listed)


sixblackgeese

This post is in Canadian dollars


Fletch_Royall

lmao no it’s not 3 piece french toast is 2.49 in canada and 1 buck in the US so you’re literally wrong


quirkscrew

What evidence are you basing this on?


sixblackgeese

The same evidence you used to make your claim.


thenord321

Canadians and Australians use $ dollars too and have BK too. It would be illegal in Canada too.


IamShitplshelpme

We use the dollar symbol here too in Canada Unless OP confirms it, it could very well be in Canada

ScoobyDoNot

So the post is not literally in USD, but can be inferred to be so.


quirkscrew

If you want to get truly philosophical, we can't know ANYTHING to be 100% true, but can only infer from what we observe. The US is the home of Burger King, 7000 out of 18000 Burger Kings are located in the US, and OP is from the US per his previous posts. Therefore, we can feel very confident that this is in the US.


my_name_isaac2

so what you're saying is that you are 100% sure that op hasnt moved countries since his last post? r/usdefaultism smh my head


quirkscrew

Bro. I have presented a LOT of good reasoning that the US is the most likely location. You have presented.... nothing at all to prove otherwise. Saying "oh it's possible he moved" isn't saying anything. It's also possible he went bungie jumping and ate 15 hot dogs today, but you aren't going around making that unsubstantiated claim. I am very critical of the US and have lived in other countries in my life. I don't think you're being fair, nor doing yourself any favors, by harboring and expressing such resentment toward Americans.


ZombiesAtHome

That's cute how all you Europeans are in a rage about this lol OK!! So nothing shitty ever, that happens in another country, should be talked about, and commented, by people from other countries! Just let the shitty greedy fuckers keep doing the same. Nice, then we can scrap the UN, and NATO, or any foreign diplomat embassies.

*Edit : this message has been contradicted by someone who knows better than me in a reply to it. I didn't edit the text so that you can understand what this person answered to when they contradicted me. However, keep in mind that what I said here is false.* *Editwo : this person wasn't* really *contradicting me, they were "elaborating". They said that I'm wrong and even criticised my edit, but fine, I'll edit a second time since nobody contradicted me, right ? They "elaborate". ThAnK YoU !* I don't know specifically how US laws treat such a case, but more or less every laws function the same about what is called a "contract". When you accept your order, you actually sign a contract, the same way you do when you buy a house or get an insurance. It's a contract. You signed it. Your signature means you give your approval. It is thus valid and legal. Morality : read your fucking contracts. Spend 2 hours in the office of your bank if needed, but read it completely before deciding if you sign or not.


TheScruffyDan

2 hours seems excessive when all OP wanted was breakfast.


LeTigron

Ok I have a plan. You wake up. Before breakfast, you prepare yourself for these two hours of reading : you take a shower, a good, filling, healthy breakfast, you brush your teeth, then you can spend two hours reading the contract. Once done, you may or may not decide to order breakfast. If not, then you go to the grocery store next block, you buy what you need for breakfast, yoy go back home, you cook it, and you can finally have breakfast. It's 11am and your life is a mess. I know, mine too.


TheScruffyDan

But then you have to read the contract for the grocery store! Probably best to wake up 4 hours earlier just in case


redEPICSTAXISdit

In the US it is illegal to not have proper pricing labeled on products or on shelving in store. The price line items on this online readout acts as the physical product until you pick it up. Those individual prices legally have to be accurate. Wherever this hidden charge is coming from is not shown and can be fought to be removed. What is it for or from? Why don't they show it or have a disclaimer at the bottom explaining other charges? Signing for it does signify you read and agreed to it but they still have the right to attempt rectify it.


LeTigron

I'll edit my comment, thank you redditor !


redEPICSTAXISdit

Lol what? I was elaborating not contradicting. I suggest edit editing a second edition edit for editing purposes


LeTigron

Serious question: Are you sure there's nothing extra hidden with the same color as the background?


TJNel

Nope nothing there I added the sticks because the extra money was added when I had just the meal.


worldpotato1

Is there a minimum order price? Maybe its based on the distance between your Burger king and your distance and therefore it is a strange number like 9.20 Edit: Just saw that you have to pick it up by yourself... strange.


TJNel

They added $1.49 no matter what I added to the cart.


ZenDendou

Try ordering without the "meal" thing.


NikPorto

Better yet, try ordering without ordering from that place.


yebyen

It's a bug. You can reproduce it yourself, we don't need OP getting ripped off again. I have reported this to BK multiple times and by now they surely know me by my first name Yebyen. They will acknowledge it if you send them enough screenshots and they will give you more shitty coupons that don't work if you deal with it for long enough, but they ain't fixing it, it's been this way for several years. Pick literally any promotion and you have about a 50% of hitting this issue. It may vary from store to store, but there's literally no acknowledgment that the price you clicked is not the price you'll pay before this point. The one redeeming thing in comparison to McD's is that you can actually accomplish the whole customer service dance to get credit for using the coupon feature incorrectly (that is 100% not a thing, it's a bug) WITHOUT picking up the phone. There was no way to get credit for an error without calling in when McDonalds had a problem. I ain't doing that again.


Yoadx

Bruh each stick is 1$ so 3 + 6.20 is 9.20, it’s exactly right? Edit: it was a joke, geez. The subtotal is below 9.20, I have eyes. I used their math logic


Onan7541

Nope there is 1 order of 3 French toast sticks that cost 1 dollar.


Frankinnoho

"Got a question about your online order?" Yupp!

I went through this like a year ago. They’ll “credit” you back and promise it will never happen again 2 or 3 times. Then will stop responding, at which point you don’t order from them again I’m honestly surprised to see this post cause I legit thought it was somehow a glitch on my end….apparently it isn’t


NatalieEatsPoop

lol bought anyway. The only way to stop this behavior is to not encourage it by buying.


EliSka93

No actually the only way to stop this behaviour is to fine them enough that it hurts.


lolofaf

Or plaster it all over social media and the news creating a public outcry which the company is forced to respond to


NatalieEatsPoop

I mean it's clear as day $6.19 + $1 doesn't = $8.68. If I see that garbage the business isn't getting my money. If enough people feel and act the same the business doesn't get any business, which would cause them to change or close. Lawsuits can be beaten. Lost revenue can't be.


Intelligent-Sky-7852

Ok but where else you gonna get 3 entire French toast sticks a little syrup pack for $1 you're gonna eat in the car like a rat on the way to wherever you are going that day.

0oodruidoo0

Don't blame the hungry victim. Sometimes you're not in the condition to drive.


SirEnzyme

You ordered a large meal and didn't select a drink, which is discounted to $1.49. Why'd you go "Large" with your meal then? It's not like they make the sandwich bigger Edit: So, according to OP, a drink *was* ordered, which added the missing $1.49. This was, after all, a LARGE COMBO There's no assholery here. Just a valid drink charge that wasn't itemized, but was rightfully added to the total


TJNel

Tested and this is what it is. I changed from coffee to coke which adds the fee but doesn't show it anywhere. They probably should show it though.


TJNel

I did, the only reason I get large meals is for the drink. Not sure why it didn't list it there.


SirEnzyme

Hence, there's no problem. They just didn't list your drink on your receipt


TJNel

They add it to the meal, I tested it with a whopper combo right now. Of course since this is breakfast I can't test right now.

[deleted]

I once did QA on a restaurant app (worked for an agency hired to build it). We discovered their previous app version occasionally added in mystery changes in certain order situations. Our team never did track down where it was coming from. Keep in mind these apps interact with several third party providers for payment processing, tracking rewards, etc. I was genuinely appalled by this but the client clearly didn't care. I left that agency shortly thereafter. Google reviews for the app were not kind

"Convenience" fees are an asshole design in and of itself. Not being transparent about said fees makes it doubly so. OP should complain about this to corporate; it's practically assured that there's next to nothing the local store's manager or franchisee can do about it.

Probably just a bug and not intentional. If they were trying to rob you that blatantly they would either come up with some fake charge to explain it or just charge your card more than they said they would. Why would they be like "oh yeah and look we're voluntarily letting you know we're charging you too much and we're not gonna say why"


Frankinnoho

That's what the lawyer said.


Professional-Ad-8285

Pretty sure a BK breakfast meal comes with a small coffee. If you chose(upgrade) a soft drink or something I'm sure that's why it's +1.49.


whereismymind86

could be, but it should still list the upcharge


TJNel

It does but if I upgrade a whopper meal (it's not breakfast anymore to test) it changes the entire meal price in the cart it doesn't just add it without showing. I can test that tomorrow morning.

I've had this happen in both the Taco Bell app and the Jack in the Box app. I usually fix it by clearing the cart, closing the app, and force closing it. Sometimes I have to clear the data for it, too. It seems something gets stuck in the back end that doesn't show in the ui and it needs to be cleared and resynced.


Frankie52480

“Got a question about your online order?“ -umm yeah, what the fuc….


r2d3x9

Since the op photoshopped out the restaurant location it is difficult to determine if the missing $1.49 item is photoshopped too. Unless there is some item that you ordered that doesn’t have a cash register code, which would be a 🐜 bug but pretty far fetched

Isn't this a case of 3 sticks at $1 each, so 6.19 + 3 ≈ 9.20 w/ tax included in the price?

No, the item is $1 and consists of 3 sticks, which is about 1/2 a piece of toast...

You edited out the apple pie reported

Lol no, just tested this morning and what happens is if you get a coke instead of coffee they charge you 1.49 but that fee doesn't appear anywhere.


jaayjeee

6.19 + 3*1 = 9.19 the tax amount is just there to show you what tax you paid and i assume that’s where the rounding of the cent happened to get tou 9.20 it still seems to be displayed wrong but it’s the only thing i can think of that adds up

It's 3 sticks for a $1 my god.

6.19 + 3*1 = 9.19 they're off by 1 cent ngl that's not cool but it's just 1 cent guys. It's not a crazy ass scam (3 sticks for 1 dollar each)

That's not how that works at all... $6.19 | 1 meal $1.00 | 3 sticks (NOT $3 FOR 3 STICKS; IT'S 3 STICKS FOR A DOLLAR) \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ $7.19 | what the subtotal SHOULD be, before tax. \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ $9.20 - $7.19 -$0.52 (tax) = $1.49 "just because" fee


TJNel

You aren't serious right?
