Tahts a total of $13.00 which is $3.25 and you cannot eat at Mcdonalds for less than that. I could do this for $10.00 a day but I wanted it to seem closer to real.

At McDonald's, you can get a double cheeseburger for 99 cents, an order of fries for 99 cents, and a small soda for 99 cents.
Or instead of the soda, get another double cheeseburger or an ice cream sundae, and then drink water from the tap with your meal. $3 meal.
The McDonalds dollar menu is the modus operandi of tons of poor people in this country, and is the biggest reason why McDonald's came under such harsh criticism for failing to provide healthy alternatives.
