Five Guys Corporate Sites- 12.99 Combo

[storewanderer]

Corporate Five Guys which include a number of California markets such as Sacramento and San Diego, now have a 12.99 combo meal. Franchise sites do not seem to be participating. The 12.99 price point is nationwide.

This consists of single cheeseburger (10.39), little fry(5.29), and a 16oz drink(they do not sell this size outside the combo, the 20oz drink is 3.39).

Five Guys prices have gotten insane.

There is a location very close to my house that I may have visited once in the 9 years I've lived here.

That combo makes it somewhat more reasonably priced.

Corporate has cut prices in some markets. The corporate took over a franchisee who had wild crazy pricing- that franchisee was the largest and had units in California, Oklahoma, Colorado. They cut the pricing in all of the markets (only a little in CA, much more in OK).

I think they know pricing is a problem. I've never seen them discount or coupon before. This $12.99 Combo does not sound very attractive but when word on the street is it costs $20 for burger/fries/drinks marketing a $12.99 combo should help counter that.

Out of curiosity I looked up the price of a similar combo (Little Cheeseburger, Little Fries and a small drink) at the local Five Guys location and it came out to $17.26. Given how much Red Robin's prices have gone up lately (most burger entrees are now in the $14-16 range, the Tavern burgers are in the $10-13 range) that actually isn't all that much more expensive. On the other hand, Culver's has become our go-to burger joint around here, and you can still get a combo under $10. The ones nearby seem to always be very busy when we are there.
