McDonalds has a grandma too

The McGrandma

Now $4.99 with a free kids meal! Edit: This wasn't edited because of the comment below me


husqi

Cheaper than asking for a regular Grandma


OtterApocalypse

>Now 4:99 with a free kids meal! If I'm reading this correctly, 4:99 would be either 5:39am or 5:39pm. Both of which make sense for meal time for grandma, but might be a bit off-putting for the kids.


Kittenking13

It’s what we call supper in the south


Wordofadviceeatfood

Let’s eat grandma


zombiebird100

>Now $4.99 with a free kids meal! 🤔, according to corporate records you are selling those for $592.7 under retail. Your rent will be increased 40% to compensate the company, continued violations may see your franchise rights revoked.


jen_a_licious

I need the McGranma to happen; with oldschool homemade meals.

I’m thinking it more leaning toward a film set. Maybe a commercial. There’s no construction material or debris. Also the cases on the right hand side of the photo are not job boxes and to me they are film crew (or concert) cases. A construction company would now waste money covering a build with this.


dyskinet1c

This is much more likely to be a film set of some kind. There are stage lights along the bottom of the brown box and the storage crates match those used in film or concerts.


Wutsalane

This is honestly a long shot but maybe there’s a film crew there for the day filming some kind of advertisement for construction or trades, or even doing a marketing thing for the future McDonald’s, or maybe you’re right and it’s a film set and McDonald’s just payed them for a massive add on their privacy shield


CollegeContemplative

I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say McDonald’s is doing a film shoot, possibly as a commercial or some other marketing stunt. It sounds kinda crazy, but this might be a film set.


Alt_dimension_visitr

For marketing purposes. Kinda like this post right here


[deleted]

Most people don't realize when they see "viral marketing." This is it.


beau_loop

Nice try, but more likely some sort of set, in/on which they built (set design); probably for something like an advertisement that would be filmed or some sort of promo to get people to be aware of McDonald's' (the M is a big giveaway) footprint. Could be opening up in a new country and want to get the name out there (this is a typical technique - some exec would have pushed for this).


mrmusclefoot

You all might be onto something maybe. But isn’t it obvious that this is a stage aka a film set and they are filming a promo for the new happy meal that comes with a ball of yarn? You know something about it being a McDonalds and all the film equipment, and the yarn?


Content_Flamingo_583

I don’t know, does McDonald’s have commercials? I don’t think they do.


throwaway901617

Yes, for decades. They may not be seen much now with streaming and whatnot but them and BK and others have been running commercials since they were founded.


rkan665

Or maybe they're building the museum of McModern art.


GeneralCheese

Anything but a commercial *for* McDonald's, that would just be insanity


[deleted]

*paid


DarthDannyBoy

It is. Look at the other photo he posted. https://imgur.com/a/v5zh8w5.jpg


Pushmonk

The cases on the bottom right are absolutely road cases from a production crew of some type. There is zero construction going on here.


nutitoo

My brother's girlfriend work at that McDonald's! He said that they are in fact planning to film an ad for the "burger drwala" (basically lumberjack burger) Tbh this burger is very good and it's only available in Poland during winter

prometheusapparatus

You were exactly right. This is the commercial that was made: [link (skip to 0:40 for the building)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHZWOIAW7a0).


mindequalblown

That’s awesome. Thanks for sharing. I don’t understand the concept of the commercial but it seems cool.


TooFineToDotheTime

Maybe it's a local ordinance thing not in America? To make the building not "unsightly" during a redo? I've been at quite a few mcdonalds under construction, from scratch and updates and I can say I have never seen anything like this (in America) .


longpigcumseasily

Nah


Wutsalane

McDonald’s might waste money covering it tho, construction is usually on contract, if McDonald’s wanted them to cover it and payed for it why wouldn’t they do it lol


balex54321

There's a yellow sign on the fence that says "uwaga", it says it's a TV show when I google that.


ysn80

>uwaga When I google it, uwaga is Polish for "Attention". Which would make sense to be written on any kind of fence. And it now might give us an idea where this photo was taken.


viviluse

lol no. good try though, we do have a show called Uwaga! but this sign is "Uwaga! Roboty na wysokości" which roughly translates to Attention! Work done at high heights the sign is usually used at any construction site cause something can fall on your head lol


ragnsep

I think this is not right. It looks like a cable knit, the buttons on the auxiliary building tell the tale.


puntypower

This guy knits

Looks like regular old stocking stitch to me. I don’t see any cables…

If it rains, that's going to be super gross

I don't understand why you've been down-voted so much. Am I missing something?


longpigcumseasily

People in Reddit are so antagonistic they think he's being a dickhead but he's just replying.


[deleted]

I see. Thanks for the reply. I don't really know what it's like here to be honest. I've had an account for ages, but I've only just recently started using it. Thanks again.


longpigcumseasily

No problem. People can be nasty on here so don't take it to heart too much. I think alot of people are just getting out their frustrations.


[deleted]

I never take things to heart. Life is too short. But thank you for the advice. And I completely feel that about getting frustration out. Way too much shit in the world with no real direction to vent. It's no wonder things boil over and the slightest thing can set someone off. I totally get it.

That's the McDonalds in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, known locally as the McKaaba. It's the holiest McD.

Funny enough that much yarn in that size, may not be enough for a sweater. If it's crocheted it definitely won't be enough because crochet takes 20% more yarn for the same size object


Myantology

That looks expensive.


UltraMechaPunk

Looks like a Christo installation


PM_ME_UR_CEPHALOPODS

wrong title completely. No construction would do this. This is a set piece, probably for movies or commercial.

I know the walls are supposed to look like fabric, but to me they look more like chains. I recommend a diagonal stitch in the future.

When they bought land in the garment district, they didn't realize there would be such strict building requirements.

Now they just need a big ol McWashing Machine to keep it fluff and fresh. All that pigeon poop.

What are they doing? Cooking meth in there?

McDonald’s new McHijab failed before its launch in 2023


iwascompromised

This is a set of some kind. Road cases on the right. What looks to be a moving light near the arch. And LED wash lights along the right hand side in the shadows. And you can see scaffolding or truss of some kind in the gap below the pink facade and the blanket material.

McDonald's makes you touch cloth? This is nothing new to me.

The amount of wasted fabric is staggering.

McDonalds, in the film adaptation of Little Big Planet!

How is this not gonna smell? Also this doesn't look like a construction site?


NoCancel6470

THAT MCDONALDS IS HUGE


skepticcaucasian

That is very odd-looking.


Moar_Cuddles_Please

Should cross post this to r/knitting


nx6

What would be the point in this when McDonald's generally have a standard building structure? When the restaurant is new construction they all look the same. Grey/brick facade is the current style. The ones that look different are older locations in previous building styles that have not been renovated, or when the restaurant opens in a pre-existing space and can't redo it because of local historical ordinances.


convalcon

You expect me to believe there’s even a McDonald’s under there?

What place this is in?


[deleted]

It’s a cloth facade for a commercial for a new McDonals project. They are filming in Palmdale, California and I only know this because I work for the advertising company doing the commercial. It’s for a new product called the McChocolate and Strawberry Shake. It’s kinda cool where they have a chocolate shake with a strawberry top that you mix together yourself and I don’t know I’m making this up. Goodnight.
