Kujo21, unless something has changed, that’s already the truth. Back in my youth I was eating at McDonald’s and a friend decided one the nick-nacks was kinda neat, so they asked if they could get one without buying a kid’s meal. Indeed you could. Just rang up a “toy” order.
Bob S. Over at My blog said his wife suggests they simply start selling toys, and if you buy a toy you get a free meal. That’s a loophole shaped like a middle-finger right there!
I’m thinking about 90 days after this goes into effect would be a good time for all the first grades in the city to have a field trip to a Board of Supervisors meeting.

Unfounded lippo-phobia aside, do they think kids are so stupid that they won’t mooch off their parents meals?

McD’s could just turn around and lower the price of a Happy Meal by a penny and sell the toy seperately for a penny. Real hard work around! Idiots.

Me – “I’d like a Happy Meal”
Them – “Sorry sir, they’ve been banned”
Me – “Oh, OK, then make it a Double Whopper with cheese.”
