Old Wingstop menu I found from 2000ish. Those prices…
Found this menu in a box of my old man’s stuff. Wingstop and Frickers were his favorites.

Not even the wings, the fries are now like $6 and have somehow dropped in quality

I used to go to a gaming center in my young days and when BWW had the I think 25 cent wing nights I think it was like around 20 years ago now the owner of the gaming center would go around and ask everyone how many wings they wanted and what kind and go pick up an insane amount of wings for everyone. Good times..

$4.29 (10 Piece) in 2000 is equivalent to $7.82 today in purchasing power (82% increase).
A 10 Piece bone-in today is $12.19 indicating a 56% increase over the expected purchasing power parity.
Said otherwise, you’re paying 56% more than what you should be if pricing trended with inflation. This is why 95% of the wings I eat now are made at home in the air fryer.
Wings are no longer economical.

They need to bring back Teriyaki already. It’s been too long.

This is so depressing, inflation is a fucking bitch, there’s no way the prices today accurately reflect costs

Screech-
I was a freshman at collage in North Miami in 1999. On Saturdays the local Hooters has 25 cent wings. Almost every Saturday we would go there and order around 50 wings each. Eat 15 and take the rest back to the dorms to eat the rest of the weekend. I miss those days.

I had a lot less money back then so this sounds about right.

It’s ridiculous. I still to this day. Don’t buy the concept that all wings are more in demand and it’s harder to get cause there’s only two wings on the chicken and all this blah blah blah. The only thing they got more expensive about wings and chicken is the price of gas to move it around And shit it didn’t get that much more. What’s it double 2 1/2 times so wings used to be a quarter, $.50. Let’s go crazy $.75 but everywhere I go wings are like two dollars now. I went somewhere and oh it looks good. Maybe I’ll grab the wings. It was $20 for eight wings or something.

Thanks Federal Reserve for blowing up our currency

Everyone talking about the price but I am stunned by the fact they allowed two flavors on 10 wings! Those were the days

I didn’t even know Wingstop existed until like the early 2010s lol. Never saw any commercials for them growing up either or anything.
Wonder how many states had them 20+ years ago since I never saw one in my life in my state

In your opinion what are the top wing spots in the springs now?
