Reading Yonder Alonso's piece in the Player's Tribune, apparently they used to have $0.39 cheeseburgers in the US:

When things are going well and Mom and Dad have some extra money and a rare night off together, they’ll order a small pizza for the four of you to share. Or sometimes on Wednesdays, when a fast-food restaurant called McDonald’s has 39-cent cheeseburgers, Dad will buy 20 and put them in the refrigerator, and you and Yainee will each go to school every day for a week and a half with a cold cheeseburger for lunch.

By the time you get to the last few burgers in the fridge, the bottom buns will be soaked in pickle juice and everything will just taste … old. It’s gonna be nasty. To this day, I still hate pickles because of those cold cheeseburgers.

I think you've already answered that question
