Answer to Question 1
After soliciting ideas, consider suggesting the following options in class discussion:
Offering a single item dollar menu, posted against a higher value bundled meal (much as the quickservice chains do).
Offering a limited dollar menu, but with items that are disabled in contrast to regular offerings (e.g., hamburgers without cheese, an obviously less attractive bun, without sauce or tomato/onion/ lettuce add-ons)
Offering the dollar menu only at a location that is less convenient than most, and which already has less traffic than desired
Offering a dollar menu at select location(s) but only at certain times of day, when traffic is low because peak times are over.
Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each strategy.
