Cheap food alert: Vancouver restaurant will drop its burrito prices to 2005 levels

It’s no secret that the price of food has only gone up in the last twenty years — just take a look at your most recent grocery bill.
So when a restaurant announces that it will be turning back the clocks and offering burritos for the same price it did back in 2005 prices, we tend to take notice.
To celebrate its twentieth anniversary, Budgie’s Burritos will be rolling back the prices of its burritos to what it was back in 2005. That means you can score one of its tasty vegetarian handhelds for just $6.
To put that into context, the restaurant’s burritos currently range anywhere from $12.50 to $14.75, meaning you’ll be receiving an over 50 per cent discount.
However, this deal will only be available for one day only on Saturday, March 8.

For those unfamiliar, Budgie’s menu is entirely vegetarian and can easily be made vegan with cheese and sour cream substitutes. They offer six signature burritos, from the classic Johnny O to creative meat alternatives in the Blair Stanley and Poser burritos.
“We want to thank everyone who has supported this little – weird- veggie- burrito spot and everyone who helped me make my dream come true,” said Budgies on Instagram.
