How much for a Burger, fries and coke ?

So Forbes helped conduct a survey on burger meal prices world wide.

Yes that's how much spare time they have over there .....

So these numbers are in American dollars because Forbes is an American magazine after all so we can forgive them for that.

But if your looking for a cheep burger meal, head to Johannesburg with $2.50!

Dublin you poor souls, having to fork over $9.16 for a meal, while in New York it's $5.99.

Euro lovers will not find relief in your continent, where the price of a fast-food meal hovers within the $7.00 range: In Amsterdam you'll pay $7.88, in Paris $7.43, and in Athens $6.66.

For less pricey eats, grab a hamburger in Prague for $4.91, in Warsaw for $3.86 oh and Tokyo has a burger meal at $7.04

So with this information, and an abundance of spare time, i factored in Air Fares to the cities in question, after all, its not just $9.16 im worried about <-- 16 cents, come on Dublin, round it up or down for god's sake!

So,
$1,712.81 will get me a burger in Dublin
$1,938.40 gets me a burger in New York
$1,849.11 and im no longer hungry in Prague
$1,870.16 and im happy in Warsaw

So i was told American troops in Afghanistan have there own McDonald's, and its going to cost me $4,082.78 to grab a burger there providing i dont have to bribe anyone at a security check point.

There is a McDonald's near me, but its a bad neighbourhood, so im considering the trip to the gan! Yes im calling Afghanistan "The Gan" from here on out, every city needs a nickname!

Anyhow im shutting up now, ive typed Afghanistan that many times in this blog im sure ill have ASIO (Australian version of the CIA) at my door in no time.

Plus i had to look up air fares to The Gan, so now im worried!

If i dont blog for a while, you know why.
