They just showed this on the SuperBowl and in 2-3 minutes the bids went from 45-75. I saw it at 102.50, I refreshed the page. $500. FOR A MCDONALDS FRENCH FRY. That’s what superbowl advertising gets you.

MemberIt’s well over $2000 now.
I can’t imagine why someone would pay that much for a piece of polyurethane.

ParticipantYeah I actually thought it was real for a minute or two. 😛
Those people are crazy. Look at the bid history, like 150 bids in only about 20 minutes.

Participant$20,000+Now. That is MAD

ParticipantI don’t see why it’s funny. It’s for a charity — an excellent cause in my opinion.

MemberIt’s now at 10,000 dollars. Holy crap. I wish i could make that kind of money off a stupid fry… but without the superbowl, that thing would be at 50 cents.

ParticipantNow it’s at $250,000. Who has that kind of money? I’d rather put that towards a house or something.

ParticipantDo you honestly think someone would spend $250,000 dollars on “some stupid french fry with Lincoln’s face on it” for absolutly no reason?

Memberthat much, for a French Fry that looks like Lincoln.
What about that Chicken Select? The guy said it looked like Ben Franklin then ate it. Wonder how much you can make on that…Welcome to America!

ParticipantNo fun now…They took away like 90% of the bids. $21,000 is still a lot though.
