Four Bucks is Dumb?

McDonalds certainly got plenty of attention with their Seattle based "Four Bucks is Dumb" campaign - which actually began months ago. I guess in the world of advertising and public relations attention is good - so long as it isn't so bad that it affects a company's reputation.


Here's a sampling of their "Fourbucks (Starbucks) is Dumb" propaganda.




or a bus...



You've got to ask yourself... which is dumber... spending $4 on a Latte at Starbucks...or $3 on a Big Mac at McDonalds...

    It could be claimed that $2.79 plus tax is also dumb (the cost of a medium mocha at McDonalds).
    I prefer the espresso offerings from the little coffee shop in the sky walk near where I work where a good mocha is under two bucks.
