Outrage Over $7.29 Egg McMuffin at Connecticut McDonald's

The viral receipt, shared by Bespoke Investment Group, highlights the high prices at rest stop locations.

An image of a McDonald's receipt showing a $7.29 Egg McMuffin from a Connecticut location has gone viral, with many users outraged at the high price.
The receipt was shared by the Bespoke Investment Group, who also noted a $5.69 price for a side of hashbrowns at the same location.
Many users pointed out that prices at rest stop locations, like the one in Fairfield, Connecticut, are typically higher than average.
McDonald's allows franchisees to set their own prices, which can be influenced by various factors such as wages, rents, and transportation costs.
The average price of an Egg McMuffin across the U.S. is $4.12, and in Connecticut it is $4.29, according to the website Mc-Menu.
