is to go inside where you can easily double check what you're getting.
Saves a lot of frustration.

I agree with the other posters. I ALWAYS check my order before I leave
the drive-thru lane.

I cannot even begin to tell you how many times fast food places get my
burger order wrong.

I only eat plain hamburgers, which is the simplest entree to make at a
fast food place.

Based on how often they get my burger wrong, you'd think I was asking
them to construct a nuclear reactor.

FYI to fast food workers - a "plain hamburger" is just a hamburger and
a bun - NOTHING ELSE.

A "plain cheeseburger" is a hamburger, cheese and a bun.

I know 4 year olds that understand this logical distinction.

I agree, Check the bag. I doubt they are maliciously screwing up your
order, They are most likely wimpy incompetent. Realize that they don't
realize the orders are screwed up. They think it's perfect, and the
errors are the result of accidents or oversight. If you ask if the
straws are in there, can you really believe that the response will be
"thanks so much for reminding me, here they are!" ?

After the first time you can bet I would be checking my order EVERY
time.

Maybe you should go in and place your order. That way you can watch as
they bag your order. You can also get the straws, napkins and
condiments you need.

Considering it's happened 4 times in a row... I would suggest checking
before you drive away.

a value meal? I don't eat at McTroughs, so I have no idea. But I
tend to believe you get what you pay for.

So you're going to give them M ORE chances to screw up your order?
Why?
