Google Review: Burger Fuel. Te Awamutu.

A fake parking ticket from Burger Fuel.

I had only been cruising the supermarket aisles for about half an hour on a Wednesday, when wham! I looked out the window and saw someone messing with my ride. I left my trolly lingering by the chillers and ran. There was a parking ticket on my windscreen. I picked it up and felt that unique blend of bile, annoyance and anger. I was dreading the damage.

But it was a gimmick. A marketing gimmick.

I did some research and they have been doing this for years. Back in 2017, these parking tickets offered FREE FRIES. Now, it’s FREE FRIES with any purchase. When did Burger Fuel get so stingy? 1star.

Before this experience I would have recommended the American Muscle with double-daddy beef patties and melted cheddar with a side kumara fries. Nobody messes with my ride!
