> McDonalds

McDonalds should start allowing full 50% off order discounts in exchange for customers opting-in to receiving custom-printed wrappers with hyperpersonalized advertising printed on-demand just for them.

Could they afford to do it? IDK, advertising is effective and seems like a big business.

I think with their McDonalds App discounts for more normal pricing (last I checked), they're half way there?

My Facebook account with no connections was created exclusively to log in for the 20% discount. Facebook is probably getting more out of this arrangement than McDonalds.

I do like that McDonalds employees call me Valued Customer instead of the Facebook Name, after enabling one of the app privacy settings.
