A woman who went to McDonald’s for a breakfast McMuffin ended up paying £100 for her trouble.
She was fuming after realising she’d been fined for parking her car at the Maccies for too long.
Carolyn Welch, 64, from Stafford, went to a MacDonald’s in Warrington in November to have breakfast and was slapped with a £100 fine because her car broke down.
She was forced to stay in the car park for more than 3.5 hours while having her car fixed by a mechanic, who arrived at the scene.

Welch claimed: “The car wouldn’t start, my old car has taken me on many adventures and protests since I bought it new in 2007. It was dead!”
Welch said her husband William informed a McDonald’s staff member that her car had broken down, and they told him it would be ok.
