Vow will be broken in 5...4...3...2...

They're not raising prices at peak times, just lowering prices at off peak times. (It's the same thing)

Nah, they will probably just raise the prices all the time and THEN make a big deal of the off peak time price savings.

Basically, what you said but with extra steps and hopefully (for them) people forget by then about it by then

Thank God because I'm in the market for a $23 fast food burger right now.

Can't wait for the 75% discounts for low priority times /s
