    Different taco bells have different pricing, most taco bells have a $6 app only box that’s one of the best value meals you can get in fast food, but some individual taco bells raise the price on it.

    For example, of the 4 closest taco bells to me 3 have the $6 box, but one charges $12 for it. That expensive taco bell has everything marked up at least 30-75%. It’s not the worst in the country though, there’s a taco bell in NYC that charges $25 for the $6 box.

      I live in the South in one of the cheapest cost of living areas. I haven’t tried the app, but ordering off the menu is crazy. When I was in college, soft tacos were like 0.89 and cheesy 5 layers were like a buck. When I order my old order from back in the day, it comes out to like $27 now.

      If the app box is anything like the ones they used to just have on the menu, then I really hope I can handle the sodium these days.

        I remember 59, 79, 99.

        Pretty much everything on the menu was 59, 79, or 99 cents. Those were the days.
