Beginning as early as 2025, we will begin testing more enhanced features like 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.

Resolves YES if there's evidence of any Wendy's store in the United States doing "dynamic pricing", as reported by credible media. Price has to update at least every 3 hours, at least 3 times a day.

If this hasn't happened in at least one store by the end of 2025, resolves NO.

How does "at least every 3 hours" work? Would a Wendy's that raised prices 11-1 every day (with no other changes) count as yes? How about 10-2?

@Weepinbell umm let's add the requirement "at least 3 times a day"? I'm wary of adding too many overly specific requirements, but having a single "raise, then lower" rush hour seems to not quite be in the spirit of this market?

The intent of "every 3 hours" was to make sure we're talking about dynamic price changes, not just updating the price for weekends or something.
