McDonald’s Offers $5 Meal Deal & Summer Savings
June 20, 2024
This summer, McDonald’s is teaming up with local franchisees to bring a series of exciting deals on fan-favorite menu items, making it easier for customers to enjoy their favorites without breaking the bank. These offers, available nationwide, are set to make summer 2024 a season to remember for fast-food enthusiasts.
Starting June 25, McDonald’s will introduce the highly anticipated $5 Meal Deal, available for a limited time at participating locations nationwide. This meal includes a choice of a McDouble or McChicken sandwich, small fries, a four-piece Chicken McNuggets, and a small soft drink — all for just $5. This offer is designed to provide a complete and satisfying meal at an unbeatable price.
Franchisees across the U.S. are adding to the summer fun with their own local deals. These promotions vary by region, offering something unique for every community. For instance, Memphis, Tennessee, features a Buy One Get One for $1 breakfast sandwich deal, while Columbus, Ohio, offers a Double Cheeseburger and small fries for $3.50. Western New York patrons can enjoy a mix-and-match deal of a McChicken and McDouble for $3.99. These localized offers provide additional savings and variety for customers.
McDonald’s is also offering discounts on soft drinks, iced coffees, and frozen beverages. For example, in cities like Cincinnati and Columbus, large frozen carbonated drinks are available for just $1.79. These drink deals ensure you can stay refreshed and enjoy a tasty beverage wherever your summer adventures take you.
By downloading the McDonald’s app, customers can start earning MyMcDonald’s Rewards points. For every $1 spent, users earn 100 reward points, which can be redeemed for free menu items like a Happy Meal or a McChicken sandwich.
McDonald’s is also enhancing its app experience with exclusive deals. Every Friday, customers can enjoy “Free Fries Friday,” where a medium fry is free with any $1 minimum purchase through the end of 2024. Additionally, in celebration of National French Fry Day on July 13, app users can get free fries of any size without any purchase requirement.
