最近几年，在互联网上，去麦当劳买"穷鬼套餐"走红网络，成为了不少网红博主拍摄的话题，但是近来却有媒体曝出，就是这个原先最有性价比的"穷鬼套 餐"却3年涨价4次，变成了中产专属，这到底是怎么回事？ 一、3年涨价4次的麦当劳"穷鬼套餐"？ 据Vista看天下的报道，曾经把麦当劳送上"神殿"的麦门信徒一夜之间变成无神论者，因为它悄悄涨价了。 有消费者发现，麦当劳大部分餐品价格上调0.5-1元。经典汉堡如巨无霸、双层深海鳕鱼堡、麦香鱼，以及麦乐鸡、那么大鸡排等小食分别上涨1元，麦麦脆 汁鸡、中份薯条等小食和麦旋风、新地等甜品相应贵了0.5元。 0.5元看似不多，但这已经是麦当劳今年第二次涨价，并连续三年在年末进行调价。 麦门信徒最担心的"1+1"穷鬼套餐看似依旧保持13.9元，但若选择最受欢迎的双层吉士汉堡（后文简称"双吉"），同样贵了1元。面对麦当劳的再次涨价，气 得后现代诗人麦门爱好者直感叹，"今年多一块，明年多一块，然后得一夕麦麦，起视四境，而涨价又至矣。" 却不曾想，多付一块并不是压垮广大麦门信徒的最后一根稻草，而是麦当劳汉堡一边变贵，一边体积缩水。眼睁睁看着双吉从汉堡变成小笼包再到马卡龙， 原本用穷鬼套餐充 ...

进入内地市场35年，麦当劳仍在填补市场盲区。 公开资料显示，麦当劳在内地市场的大部分门店均采取直营模式，在相对欠发达地区则授权发展式特许 经营人开设门店。2016年起，麦当劳中国停止了全国范围内特许经营商的公开招募。据宁夏当地媒体华 兴时报报道，新疆、西藏的两家当地企业在审批停止前，拿到了最后两张麦当劳特许经营牌照，而宁 夏、青海则错过了这趟特许经营的"末班车"。 麦当劳进驻宁夏与青海市场，也与当地政府部门推动有关。 据当地媒体报道，为了推动麦当劳首店落地，宁夏与青海商务厅都曾赴麦当劳中国经营主体金拱门（中 国）有限公司进行对接洽谈。沟通后，麦当劳中国决定采取特许经营方式进入宁夏市场，并由内蒙古市 场发展式特许经营人内蒙古润隆餐饮管理有限公司将宁夏市场纳入特许经营范围。在此前，距离银川最 近的麦当劳在内蒙古乌海市，有宁夏当地网友甚至调侃称"宁夏没有麦当劳，所以骑车骑内蒙买。" 而今年6月25日，在青海本地举行的青洽会西宁市重点项目签约活动上，麦当劳西宁项目现场正式签 约。 宁夏与青海门店开业当天，麦当劳仍吸引大量本地人前来捧场。在青海西宁的麦当劳门店，不少消费者 冒着严寒在店外排起长队，这种热闹场景，在门店开 ...
