@dbcurrie: Good point! Fast food hamburgers are often a dollar, but their "meals" often end up being four, five, or six. And it's not just at McDonalds. A greasy appetizer, indifferent entree, syrupy dessert, and watery "mock"tail at Chili's or Applebees can cost as much as or more than a similar dinner at a proper sit-down restaurant!
