Is there really a target market for this abomination? (TikTok screencap)

The exterior of a Wendy’s restaurant with a window advertisement showing “T-REX BURGER
Go Big or Go Extinct.
$29.99” with a picture of a giant 9-patty hamburger accompanying the caption.

$30/9 is $3.33 for just 1 cooked patty and cheese. So each of these DIY burgers of yours is maybe $3.50 -$4

How much is just a single a Wendy's cheeseburger? Edit: looks like under $3

So marketing scam confirmed.

    Bulk savings. Buy once, only drive once, no further transport for a week; no waiting for food to cook (just reheat), no prep time or cooking time. 4am and hungry, burger. Noon, burger. Evening, burger. Have a pet that is running low on food? Burger.

    And they say "time is money" so actually it's like -$3 per burger once you do the math. Galaxy brain ain't got shit on this.
