Australian McDonalds Value Pack Commercial - Late 80s

[Sheri451]

McDonald food tasted WAY better then. And scarblade234 is right, The Big Mac's WERE bigger. I remember that.

[LibertarianChristian]

Damn central bankers devaluing our dollar, now it costs us more for less maccas!

[scarblade234]

Holy shit!!! That big mac is actually big!!!

[Roymungus]

I like it how they always advertise that nice cheap price in the 80's! you'd never see them advertise the price on them these days so happily like that! expensive kents!

[yogafan6500]

Cool commercial. it makes me hungry.

[TimelordR]

Guess it won't be long before the Australians catch up with us in terms of obesity.

[MattTheSaiyan]

What exact year was this? For example, Using the year "1988", $3.15 then would be $AU6.08 now.

[glitterlip]

mmmm filet-o-fish... one L people

[JohnFordDanceTroupe]

Ladies and gentleman, Phil Jamieson on ice.

[CanadianFan]

I think some of the international McDonalds food look better then the American ones!!

[CanadianFan]

here in the U.S. we say "Fi-lay" ...gotta love these Australian (to me International) commericals

[MJismyrock]

@CanadianFan I worked at Macca's and we all said Fi-Lay.

[MJismyrock]

@CanadianFan I'm from Sydney and worked at Macca's. We all pronounced it Fi-Lay too.

[blue0blaze]

now a days 3.15 is about the price of a burger

[victor22]

Mcdonalds is the best!

[Killenwolf]

I remember when it was that cheap crap i'm old

[kimmm210]

Holy fuck, now-a-days its that price just for the burger..

[shobielim]

its broadcast on TVQ-10 in 1989

[Dierrhea]

30% more obesity at no extra cost

[wbm001]

Bring back the polystyrene containers! Plastic Macs. Ooh yeah!

[xOneWayStudiosx]

For once, I just want to see a fat guy advertising McDonald's with tears of self loathing stream down while stuffing his fat face. That would really hit home for me, I think. Let's see that fucker jump up and down for joy. He can't.

[GDOTV1]

lol, so thats where australia's obesity problems started.....

[AidanNagolxxx]

Yeah unlike those snotty up themselves Americans we pronounce it "FILL-it o-fish", they pronounce it "fill-EEY o-fish".

[mubd1234]

@AidanNagolxxx

GARAGE..ooh lah dee dah mr french man.

[LDNprincess]

@AidanNagolxxx I am Aussie & we pronounce it FillAy of fish..I used to work there when I was a teenager & that's what we all called it...

[AidanNagolxxx]

@LDNprincess Well so am I, and everyone I know pronounces it "fill-it-o-fish" . And I have tried it once calling it fillay through the drive through, and the girl asked me to repeat myself because she didn't know what I was saying.

[LDNprincess]

@AidanNagolxxx really,that's strange....I am from Sydney, you are probably from a smaller city, right?

[AidanNagolxxx]

Well, Brisbane isn't all that smaller. And I am positive that people in Sydney would say it like I do.

[LDNprincess]

@AidanNagolxxx mmmm, ok no need to get your knickers in a twist...where I worked we called in Fillay o fish, potato potahto, we just say it different ways.

[Nigaromia]

Look at the good ol Styrofoam containers making those burgers sweat.

[26highstreet]

@Nigaromia i love those burgers sweating away nice and soggy....mmmmmm mc donalds

[arado240dd]

I wanna do that blond as well.

[lexmark136]

0;05 I WANNA FUCK THAT BLONDE!!

im suprised they arent advertizing kangaroo kabobs with beer

[greenhornes]

im surprised a fucking retard like you knows how to use a computer

[lexmark136]

Are you really? or are you just being sarcastic?

[mat2000100]

but sir at 0:05 thats a big mac value pack.

[Jake1722]

or just cook your food, i notice that many people my age, wouldnt know how to boil water if their life depended on it

[ForzaIV]

Holy fuck, $3.15 that's so damn cheap.

[JBofBrisbane]

@ForzaIV - twenty years ago, each dollar bought a whole lot more than one does today. It's called "Inflation". Google it.

[ForzaIV]

@JBofBrisbane i know my economics, and I was comparing that figure in terms of today's AUD value.

[torylivingston]

$2.90 for the Filet o Fish combo? I had one the other day and just the sandwich is almost 4 dollars.

[MrLogoman007]

Where do you live? Also, what year is this?

[riverdave7]

and its a crap burger

[museumofinanity]

The shot at 0:17 proves one thing: The Filet-O-Fish always has been, and always will be, miniscule.

[tramman82]

Circa 1986, good work!

[ZombieBlaster]

$3.15...$2.90 now it more like $8.00 and it 60% smaller.

[madx80h]

Mcdonalds has a deal now where you can get a BIg Mac and a Regular fries for $2 !! Adding a drink comes in at $3.80something.. if course its just a promotion and need a coupon, but still - is similar to their deal back then

[ansettaddict123]

isnt it nice to see where 30% more fries got the world:)

[jordy39]

lol..true!

[ansettaddict123]

yeah:) lots of fatties running around now:(

[mubd1234]

I just realised...that's not 30% more fries! They just heightened the box!

[JAYTASTICROCKS]

there so much better then those stupid two guys knock into each other at the front of line and go you go first, no you go first, OKAY!!!!!!!!!!! that commercial was more american

[cman86s]

I miss those ads. They were more charismatic back then

[hoboreclaimer]

@cman86s and less racist.

[akiraman26]

mc crackheads

[T0bSure]

I remember when I was a kid the happy meal toy was the container it came in, it was normally shaped like a boat or a car or somthing then you got some stickers inside to stick on it.

[genzolorenzo]

lol they have to much to say and not enough time or syllables in the sentence to say it lol

[mubd1234]

$3.15 in 1987 is worth $6 now

$2.90 in 1987 is worth $5.49 now

That compares well to todays prices.

[Converse1977]

Ahhh yes those old foam hamburger covers that did actually help to keep your burger warm! but then they found out that they aren't good for your health!

[kuttsywood]

I think they stopped using foam because of the CFC's effect on the ozone hole? These days, almost every burger (in Queensland at least) comes in paper boxes.

[ansettaddict123]

yes:(

[JBofBrisbane]

@kuttsywood - more likely because styrofoam isn't recyclable.

[simbiote89]

i believe that this is enough motivation for me to build a time machine to go back in time and get cheap Macdonalds.

[simbiote89]

$3.15?

you're fucking joking me, right?

time for me to invent a time machine...

first comment by the look of it too

[DUSTINDUSTRIES]

I am in china at the moment and Big Macs are just under $2 Aus. and they have the Mac Tonight dude ads for 24hr. I also brought a set of Styrofoam containers from ebay a few years ago and have them in storage. Thats about the closest I can get to a time machine!
