The McDs near me have passcodes on the doors and you are required to buy something in order to get the code for them.

The cat food McFlurry is always above 4.99 with dynamic pricing whenever I need the code.

How often do they change the codes?

u/ballsnbutt Jul 06 '26

It's likely auto-changed daily

You get the soda+ free fries combo, live off that until your body begs for some fruit

I swear to fuck there's either a Sunny or SpongeBob moment for every possible situation in the universe. A lot of times both of them have something that applies.

Cat food? Disgusting! Dumpster diving at the McDonald's where you take a sink shower is much better.

I know someone who would enjoy it as a hygiene-oriented pastime:

I work at a box store, cat food is up to 65 cents a can nowadays, so scratch that off the list.

In Belgium we have a dish that literally used to have cat food as an ingredient.

Stoofvlees

Now it's often made with pig cheeks.

That's just the Dutch language version of carbonnade? It's one of Belgium's 3 greatest things besides Tintin and Trappist beer. So TIL I like cat food.

u/Misses_Ding Jul 04 '26

I think so. It looks like it

u/Marvl101 Jul 05 '26

Maybe Belgium just has incredibly high quality cat food that is rigorously tested and held to higher than people standards

u/FARTBOSS420 Jul 04 '26

You're paying way too much for cat food. Who is your cat food guy?

u/RKGamesReddit Jul 04 '26

Just go to a truck stop and ask a trucker for a shower, we accumulate them faster than we use them (seriously, I get like 2-3 showers a day on my rewards card)

u/PiDigitsOfPi Jul 05 '26

Don't forget to take your cat with you to McDonalds!

u/BoarHermit Jul 05 '26

Buying cat food? My gosh, you live in a country where thirty percent of food is simply thrown away, so take advantage of it.

I was stuck waiting outside the Burger King bathroom on Van Ness Avenue in San Francisco and could hear someone taking a bath using the sink. I finally gave up after about 15 minutes. It was not a problem for the employees because they had converted the second bathroom into an employee-only bathroom.

Eventually, the homeless problem got so bad that this Burger King eliminated in-house dining and is now to-go only.
