75 dollar steaks? I can buy a good one from BonTon and make it myself for $20.
I'm so over paying these ridiculous prices for food, when the quality and shrinkflation is going down and the price continues to rise.
$18.00 for a Wendy's combo now a days, just unreal.
Its crazy to me that I fast-food places are now almost as expensive as going to a half decent sit down restaurant, its comical to say the least. I'd sooner pay $20 more dollars for "home-cooked" food vs nothing but deep fried garbage.
If I have to eat out some where I usually look for the mom and pop type shops/diners where you can still get a good sandwich/burger for around $10.00

Sorry, not in Canada, but what kind of weight and cut are you getting for $20? I agree, restaurants are super overpriced, but even still, $20 doesn't seem like it'd get you much steakwise unless you know a cattle farmer.
EDIT: I buy prime (highest USDA rated) steaks from Oregon Costcos for ~$26/lb. Ribeyes/filets are similarly priced.
