* Humor!

A American businessman had just arrived to the Dublin airport as he was in town for an important meeting. As he was walking through the airport, he stumbled across a stall. Where an Irishman was selling Irish souvenirs. Amongst the various things for sale. There was a small skull mounted on a piece of polished wood with a plaque saying “ The skull of St. Patrick “.

The businessman immediately ask the Irishman, is this for real ? Pointing at the skull.

Aye! Lad, to be sure to be sure. And I have the letter of authenticity to prove it.

The American was so impressed he bought the the souvenir immediately.

A few weeks later the same businessman was again in Dublin for another meeting and again whilst walking through the airport he came across the same stall of Irish souvenirs and the same Irish salesman. As the businessman was looking at the various souvenirs,he came across a larger skull mounted on a piece of polished wood and a plaque saying “ The skull of St. Patrick”.

The businessman in a rather distraught voice said to the salesman, excuse me? I purchased a smaller skull similar to this a few weeks ago with a letter of authenticity that it was the skull of St. Patrick.

The Irishman laughed and said,
Aye! Lad. That was the skull of St. Patrick when he was a boy.

* McDonald’s is working to introduce a $5 value meal in U.S. stores…

Just trying to keep you guys in the loop…

PUBLISHED FRI, MAY 10 2024
CNBC.COM

May 10, 2024

McDonald’s is working to introduce a $5 value meal in U.S. stores to help offset an increasingly challenging environment for consumers, two people familiar with the matter told CNBC.

The people said the $5 meal could include four items: a McChicken or McDouble, four-piece chicken nuggets, fries and a drink. The value meal was first reported by Bloomberg News.

The potential new offering comes at a time when low-income consumers are beginning to pull back on spending, particularly at fast-food brands. Mentions of low-income consumers on company earnings calls are at their highest levels in nearly two years, according to data from Bank of America. Executives from McDonald’s to Wendy’s to Dave and Buster’s have all noted the restraint in spending.

McDonald’s recently reported a mixed first quarter, with U.S. same-store sales slightly missing expectations. Higher prices helped grow average checks, but some consumers pulled back as a result of the steeper costs.

“Consumers continue to be even more discriminating with every dollar that they spend as they faced elevated prices in their day-to-day spending, which is putting pressure on the [quick-service restaurant] industry,” CEO Chris Kempczinski said on the company’s earnings call on April 30.

He added that McDonald’s has to be “laser-focused” on affordability to attract diners.

On the call, Kempczinski said the company is working on a national value deal in the U.S., and the company’s Chief Financial Officer Ian Borden said the U.S. leadership team was working closely with owner-operators in this environment. McDonald’s corporate and franchisees, who run 95% of McDonald’s locations and weigh in on such offerings, are often at odds over promotions that could eat into owners’ profits.

An initial proposal by McDonald’s for the $5 value meal did not clear necessary hurdles, and additional details are now being discussed, according to a person familiar with the process. A second person said Coca-Cola added marketing funds to the equation to make the deal more appealing.

McDonald’s declined to comment to CNBC. Coca-Cola did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
