I'm in nyc, but I find the issue to typically be one of two things: the cell tower I'm connected to doesn't allow me to connect to Wendy's, or the WiFi doesn't. I typically can fix it by walking a block away. And that's for all types of logins (Apple, Google, email/password)
Based upon your description, it's more likely an issue with your phone vs. it being the fault of BOTH your carrier data and your Wi-Fi (along with it being associated with multiple logins).
In California they will soon need to sell 20 of these just to barely pay for an hour pay for one employee. Actually, it's probably more like 25 to pay for the ingredients. I'm done with fast food. It will take much more than these gimmick app offers to get me back.
I swear Dave's Singles are looking more like sliders now. They used to by comparable to the Quarter Pounder at McDonald's. I can hold the burger with two fingers and my thumb now.

Interesting logic here...

Is Wendy's buttering us up with all these deals before they bring in surge pricing?
It is not surge pricing. It is dynamic pricing. The media made a lot of assumptions. Just download the Wendy's app. You'll always get the best deal. I will not pay full price for the combos at their current pricing. Very rarely do I see you Wendy's that is full. So, it is unlikely that we will experience the surge pricing like the media is suggesting.
Yes, I totally remember reading that too, but Wendy's is probably scrubbing the internet trying to take down that quote (about charging more at the crowded lunchtime). Dynamic pricing, for the customer, is really surge pricing. They already use coupons and promos to reduce prices at low times. Now with digital menu boards, they can change the price at a press of a button and then claim 'it was always $10 for that burger'. Yah, right. They won't go below their regular price point, they'll always go above it. They're just back-peddling like crazy because of the backlash, but they will still implement the digital menu boards and change prices as they see fit.
"Dynamic pricing, as defined by our friends at Investopedia, allows companies to set variable pricing that can fluctuate up and down throughout the day, depending on demand. For example, if you've ever seen "surge pricing" on your Uber app, this is dynamic pricing.
"This means a Wendy's burger may sell at a higher price point during a busy lunch rush, then come down in price during an afternoon lull, and go back up again at dinner time. And it's not just Wendy's who is thinking of adopting the practice. As Nation's Restaurant News previously reported, during the 2022 Restaurant Finance and Development Conference, there was an entire panel discussion on how the restaurant industry could better adopt the system. The only caveat being, if customers will love it or loathe it.
"Wendy's foray into dynamic pricing is a bold experiment that could help the chain be more efficient and ultimately profitable if it works, " said Caleb Silver, editor in chief of Investopedia, shared with Food & Wine. "But, it does run the risk of angering and losing customers since they actually have many choices, unlike the rideshare industry."
"For us, it was all about consumer reaction. The concern was if you're going to raise prices, you're going to sell less product, and it turns out that really wasn't the case," Faizan Khan, a Dog Haus franchise owner, said at the Restaurant Finance and Development Conference. "I think there's a lot of room for consumers in terms of price amounts they're going to accept. Generationally, I think we're seeing this being acceptable."
Dynamic pricing doesn't mean that they will automatically raise the pricing. They can lower the pricing as well. Competition will keep them in check.

most fast-food places are paying at least $12-15/hour these days. california has high cost of living. minimum wage there is $16/hour for everyone, not just fast-food employees. some cities there have their own minimum wages that are higher than that
The app has a pop-up that says these offers will be available every Thursday. So it sounds like you can redeem them once a week until April. That would make sense since the current coupon expires 3/6, Wednesday.

grocery prices are up everywhere, but some places are still cheaper to live than others. honestly my grocery bill hasn't gone up that much though, because i hunt for slick deals and try to only buy what's on sale. kroger has some great deals in their weekly ad, and if you shop in-store you can find stuff that's been marked down because it's on clearance or getting close to the best-by date. i don't shop at aldi, but i've heard they have good deals too
