McDonald’s 50 Cent Double Cheeseburger Day

September 28, 2023

This fall promotion was active earlier this year but has NOT been confirmed for 2024. I will keep watching to see if it or a similar offer returns. As soon as I receive further information, this page will be updated. Be sure to check back often!

McDonald’s is celebrating National Cheeseburger Day. Yes, it’s a real holiday! To prove it, they will be offering 50 cent Double Cheeseburgers through the McDonald’s app.

Enjoy a half dollar Micky D’s Double Cheeseburger on September 18th. Current menu price at my local McDonald’s is $2.99, so this is quite the deal! No coupon required, but you must use the app on your phone to order. Don’t miss National Cheeseburger Day and 50 cent Double Cheeseburgers this Monday at your neighborhood McDonald’s.

Offer valid only on Monday, September 18, 2023 at participating restaurants. Limit one free Double Cheeseburger per person. Not valid in conjunction with any other coupon or special promotional discount. Most McDonald’s restaurants will be open regular hours on Columbus Day (Monday, October 9.)

McDonald’s 2 for $6 & September App Offers

September 26, 2023

INFLATION ALERT: The McDonald’s “4 for 4” promotion is now a “4 for 5” deal. Price has recently increased from $4.44 to $5.00 at most locations.

It appears Micky D’s 2 for $6 has been discontinued. However, there are 6 inflation-fighting McDonald’s mobile app offers happening in September:

– FREE Quarter Pounder with Cheese, Big Mac, or 10pc Chicken McNuggets when you buy one at regular price
– FREE Double Cheeseburger or 6pc Chicken McNuggets when you buy one at regular price
– $1.19 Any Size Fries
– $1.50 Breakfast Sandwich
– 4 for $5.00: McDouble, McChicken or Hot’n Spicy McChicken and 4pc Chicken McNuggets, Medium Soft Drink or Sweet Tea, and Small Fries
– 20% off any purchase of $5.00 or more (excludes tax)

All of these deals are available exclusively on McDonald’s Mobile App. Limit 1 per person per day at participating restaurants. Specific promotional offers may vary by location.

I will keep watching to see if 2 for $6 or a similar offer returns. As soon as I receive further information, this page will be updated. Be sure to check back often! Most McDonald’s restaurants will be regular hours on Columbus Day (Monday, October 9.)

McDonald’s Shamrock Shake Price & Availability

September 19, 2023

This spring promotion was active earlier this year but has NOT been confirmed for 2024. I will keep watching to see if it or a similar offer returns. As soon as I receive further information, this page will be updated. Be sure to check back often!

As expected, McDonald’s has brought back their ever-popular Shamrock Shake for St. Patrick’s Day. In 2023, the Shamrock Shake celebrates it’s 53rd Anniversary! This minty masterpiece returned to restaurants on Monday, February 20.

As in previous years, it comes in 3 sizes: small, medium, and large. Unfortunately, inflation has hit the Shamrock Shake this year: medium shakes now go for around $3.90 in most markets. This represents a price increase of approximately 11% over last year. The cost of all sizes varies by market. At my local McDonald’s, pricing is as follows:

– Small Shamrock Shake $2.59 (was $2.49 last year)
– Medium Shamrock Shake $3.89 (was $3.49 last year)
– Large Shamrock Shake $4.29 (was $3.89 last year)

How long will McDonald’s Shamrock Shake be available? At least through St. Patrick’s Day and probably through the end of March. In past years, last call occurred around Easter Sunday. This is the same time the Filet-O-Fish Lent promotions end. If you really want to do it up right, get to McDonald’s for a Filet-O-Fish Friday, paired with a Shamrock Shake!

McDonald’s Filet-O-Fish Promotions & Prices

September 18, 2023

SEPTEMBER 2023 UPDATE: Welcome to fall! Due to inflation, I doubt we’ll ever see a 2 for $5 Filet-O-Fish again. However, McDonald’s usually runs some type of fish promotion between now and the end of the year. Regular price is now $3.99 in my area, so I’m thinking a sale price around $3 might happen? I’ll keep watching. As soon as I receive further information, this page will be updated. Be sure to check back often!

McDonald’s Filet-O-Fish deals have been happening for more than 50 years. I’m 58 and can remember when they were just 49 cents! Over the years, the promotional price has increased gradually: 59 cents, 79 cents, 99 cents, 2 for $2, 2 for $2.22, 2 for $3, 2 for $3.33, 2 for $4, 2 for $4.44, and finally 2 for $5. In many areas, the Filet-O-Fish was available last year as part of McDonald’s 2 for $6 Mix & Match Deal. Originally, this special pricing was only available during the weeks leading up to Good Friday and Easter. More recently, we’ve been seeing Filet-O-Fish specials year-round!

I’m still waiting for the return of Filet-O-Fish Friday but haven’t seen it yet. We’ll keep our eyes peeled for more cheap Filet-O-Fish sandwiches and let you know what we find. Be sure to check this page often. If YOU spot a deal at your local McDonald’s, please let us know!

McDonald’s McRib Meal Promotion & Prices

September 16, 2023

This fall promotion was active last year but has NOT been confirmed for 2023. I will keep watching to see if it or a similar offer returns. As soon as I receive further information, this page will be updated. Be sure to check back often!

INFLATION ALERT: The price of this McDonald’s promotion has increased from $4.39 last year to $4.99 at most locations.

The elusive McRib sandwich has returned to McDonald’s menu! It pops up occasionally in certain parts of the country, usually during the winter months or around Thanksgiving-Christmas-New Years when diners are looking for an inexpensive warm meal. This year marks the 41st Anniversary of the McRib. It was first introduced at a Kansas City, Kansas Micky D’s back in November, 1981.

Walking by my local McDonald’s yesterday, I noticed the posters on the windows proclaiming this most blessed event! This pork patty sandwich with pickles and onions is actually very good and well worth the price which remains under $5 at most locations. In my town, a McRib sandwich only is priced at $4.99. The McRib Meal (sandwich, fries, and a drink) costs $8.79 with medium fries or $9.19 with large fries.

If you want “something different” next time you’re at McDonald’s, get your hands on a McRib! This promotion is available through November 20th at participating restaurants. Prices may vary by location. Not available after midnight. Select McDonald’s restaurants will be open holiday hours on Thanksgiving Day (Thursday, November 24.)
