RM1 Whoppers @ Burger King

Burger King had this offer today regarding its Whoppers. They are selling it at a jaw dropping RM1 price. Well, there are many hidden terms in this RM1 offer. One has to purchase a soft drink to qualify for this and a maximum of 3 burgers can be purchased per person. That means one person would be able to purchase only 3 drinks with 3 Whoppers. Heck, its still cheaper than the real thing so I headed off to the nearest Burger King @ Sunway Pyramid hoping to secure a few Whoppers for lunch. Arrived at around 1.45p.m and !@#!@ the queue was like 10m long! Left the place after queuing up for about 3mins. Coudn’t stand the heat there also.

Update: 6.30p.m. I’m back for the Whoppers! This time, its a do or die thing. No matter how long the queue was, I am going to wait!

I was craving for Whoppers since the night before as the last time I had Burger King was like ages ago.

The queue at that time was almost as long as the one in the afternoon but it seemed slightly shorter. Anyway, we waited patiently, poked and pressed our phones while waiting for our turn to make the orders. Started queuing up at 6.35p.m. and w00t! at 7.15p.m we finally made our orders! A 40min queue. How awesome is that?

I was disappointed when the worker told me that they’ve ran out of Regular soft-drinks (cups) so I had to order the large ones, WHICH OBVIOUSLY COSTS MORE. DENG. My initial plan to order 3 Whoppers was reduced to only 2 =(.  Anyway grabbed the Whoppers and happily went over to have a seat. Total damage for 2 Whoppers + 2 large drinks = RM10.10.

Here’s the original price list.

Price: RM 9.60 (ala carte)
Price: RM 13.50 (medium set)
Price: RM 14.70 (large set)
- Meal also includes fries & drinks

Anyway, it was still cheaper than the original price.  Om nom nom nom nom.

Congrats! Burger King has gone right with their marketing strategy this time.

    THEY MAKE ALMOST 1000 PERCENT LESS PROFIT!! THAT’S AMAAAAAAAAZINGGGGGGGG.

    Dumbest shit I’ve ever heard. Are the burgers the equivalent to Ramlee or something?
    Even if the coke was RM3 on regular and they bought the coke for 1cent per cup, that means RM2.99 is enough to make a reliable profit on their damn whopper.
    But it’s not like it’s a piece of shit, it’s got good(probably old) lettuce, mayo, tomatoes. It doesn’t make any fukken sense. /rant

    Imagine their regular damn profit margin. They be fuckin with us.

    It’s not just me right?
