McDonald’s USA Launches Another Season of Savings this Fall
McDonald’s extended the $5 Meal Deal into December, along with new fall promotions on the McDonald’s App, to offer more savings and local deals.
Fans can continue to cash in on the $5 Meal Deal, plus even more local and App-exclusive offers
CHICAGO, Sept. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Summer might be over, but the savings are here to stay at the Golden Arches.
This past June, we kicked off the Summer of Value, promising you more deals and even more ways to save. From the highly popular $5 Meal Deal to National French Fry Day, to many other promotions available in local markets and on the McDonald’s App, this summer was all about helping you take your dollar further.
And as it turns out, we’ve got a lot more in store for fans.
The Deal that Keeps on Going AND Giving
It’s official – the $5 Meal Deal is sticking around, with a majority of local markets extending it into December. Featuring your choice of a McDouble® or McChicken® sandwich, small fries, 4-piece Chicken McNuggets® and a small soft drink – all for just $5* – it’s just too good of a deal to let go.
So, whether you’re part of team McDouble or team McChicken – you’ve got more time to treat yourself.
“This summer, tens of millions of fans went to their local McDonald’s to enjoy our $5 Meal Deal, and it was so great to welcome them,” said Joe Erlinger, President of McDonald’s USA. “Together with our franchisees, we’re committed to keeping our prices as affordable as possible, which is why we’re doubling down with even more ways to save. Whether you’re stopping by for breakfast, lunch, dinner or a late-night snack, we want everyone to find the food they love at a price that hits the spot. The extension of the $5 Meal Deal, and the other offerings we’re announcing for our fall line-up, are just a few of the ways we’re working hard to offer great meals at a fair price.”
