I went through the drive through at Arby’s today. It has been a few years since I have had one of those tasty little sandwiches so I thought that I would grab a couple of them and eat them in my office.

I pulled up to the order entry box and when prompted, announced that I wanted not one but two of those tasty little sandwiches. “$5.49 at the second window” the man reply. Thinking that he had made a mistake I told him that I didn’t want the combo meal, I just wanted the sandwiches. He said, “Thats right. Two regular Arby’s, $5.49. Please pull around.”

Wow! $5.49 for two regular Arby’s. Those little sandwiches better be as good as I remembered them to be. I guess I am too used to those $.99 double cheese burgers at Mickey Ds. Come to think of it, those Rally burgers across the street are pretty tasty too. But, I convince myself that the Arby sandwiches are healthier even if they are pricey.

I got back to my office and unpacked my lunch from its bag. Four packages of horsey sauce. Great! Only one napkin. Bah! For the price of these sandwiches, they should have given me a couple of napkins. Oh well.

The sandwiches had quite a lot of meat on them so I guess it wasn’t such a rip off. And the sandwiches were as good as I remembered them to be.
